Michael Gamer offers a sharply focused analysis of how and why Romantic writers drew on Gothic conventions whilst, at the same time, denying their influence in order to claim critical respectability. He shows how the reception of Gothic literature, including its institutional and commercial recognition as a form of literature, played a fundamental role in the development of Romanticism as an ideology. In doing so he examines the early history of the Romantic movement and its assumptions about literary value, and the politics of reading, writing and reception at the end of the eighteenth century. As a whole the book makes an original contribution to our understanding of genre, tracing the impact of reception, marketing and audience on its formation.Cambridge studies in Romanticism ;40.Romanticism & the GothicEnglish literature18th centuryHistory and criticismGothic revival (Literature)Great BritainEnglish literature19th centuryHistory and criticismLiterary formHistory18th centuryLiterary formHistory19th centuryRomanticismGreat BritainCanon (Literature)English literatureHistory and criticism.Gothic revival (Literature)English literatureHistory and criticism.Literary formHistoryLiterary formHistoryRomanticismCanon (Literature)820.9/145Gamer Michael1548280UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910780245503321Romanticism and the gothic3805189UNINA
