Through analysis of novels, plays, and poems, the author explores the transition from sensibility as a sense of "selflessness" to Romanticism, which puts the self in the foreground as the mediating consciousness. His tightly focused discussion sets a starting point for further critical investigation of the subject. 606 $aEnglish literature$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aGothic revival (Literature)$zGreat Britain 606 $aEnglish literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aHorror tales, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPolitics and literature$zGreat Britain 606 $aMind and body in literature 606 $aHuman body in literature 606 $aRomanticism$zGreat Britain 606 $aPain in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aGothic revival (Literature) 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aHorror tales, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPolitics and literature 615 0$aMind and body in literature. 615 0$aHuman body in literature. 615 0$aRomanticism 615 0$aPain in literature. 676 $a823/.087290936 700 $aBruhm$b Steven$0986764 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451560103321 996 $aGothic bodies$92475308 997 $aUNINA
