| | | | Gothic novel: Encyclopedia II - Gothic novel - The first gothic novels The term "gothic" came to be applied to the literary genre precisely because the genre dealt with such emotional extremes and dark themes, and because it found its most natural settings in the buildings of this style -- castles, mansions, and monasteries, often remote, crumbling, and ruined. It was a fascination with this architecture and its related art, poetry (see Graveyard Poets), and even landscape gardening that inspired the first wave of gothic novelists. For example, Horace Walpole, whose The Castle of Otranto is often regarde ...

| | | | Gothic novel: Encyclopedia II - English novel - Romantic novel The Romantic period saw the first flowering of the English novel. The Romantic and the Gothic novel are closely related; both imagined almost-supernatural forces operating in nature or directing human fate. Just as William Wordsworth and other poets were integral to the growth of English Romanticism, so Mary Shelley, and Ann Radcliffe were key to the sudden popularity of the Gothic novel.
It is equally important to recognize, however, the role that the contemporary reader played in the history of the English novel. For many years, nov ...

| | | | Gothic novel: Encyclopedia II - Romance novel - Origins of the romance novel The earliest English novels in this genre appeared in the 18th century. Pride and Prejudice (1813), by Jane Austen, Wuthering Heights (1847), by Emily Brontë, and Jane Eyre (1847), by Charlotte Brontë are highly-regarded as classic romantic novels.
Romance novels can also trace their roots back to gothic novels, if not to the idea of the "roman" itself through the romance (genre), a heroic prose and narrative form of medieval/Renaissance Europe.
Ann Radcliffe's gothic novels influenced writers ranging from Jane Austen (who parodied i ...

| | | | Gothic novel: Encyclopedia II - Gothic Lolita - Lolita Although "Lolita" is a reference to Vladimir Nabokov's famous novel, and GothLoli is often worn by teens, most followers of the style do not consider it overtly sexual. Adherents present themselves as Victorian children or baby dolls and prefer to look "cute" rather than "sexy". Many Lolitas claim that the term 'lolita' doesn't necessarily have anything to do with sex at all.
Japanese culture places a higher value upon extremely youthful appearance and behaviour than Western, and some adult women buy large amounts of products, such as Hello Kitty goods, that are typically marketed only to children in the West. GothLoli is perhaps a mo ...

| | | | Gothic novel: Encyclopedia II - Southern literature - History of Southern Literature
Southern literature - Early and Antebellum Literature.
During the 17th and 18th centuries, a number of writers either wrote about or were from the American South (such as Captain John Smith who wrote an account of his adventures in Virginia and his rescue by Pocahontas). However, this literature is not considered southern because it predates the formation of the United States.
The South as a distinct culture began to come into existence in the early 1800s when cotton cultivation, and the expanded enslaveme ...

| | | | Gothic novel: Encyclopedia II - Southern literature - Southern Literature Today Today the American South is undergoing a number of cultural and social changes, including rapid industrialization and an influx of immigrants to the region. As a result, the exact definition of what constitutes southern literature is changing.
