The eighteenth and early nineteenth century saw the rise of the Gothic, a genre populated by brooding hero-villains, vulnerable virgins, mad monks, ghosts, and monsters. In this course, we will examine the conventions and concerns of the Gothic, addressing its preoccupation with terror, sex, and the supernatural. As we situate this genre within its literary and historical context, we will consider its relationship to realism and Romanticism, and we will explore how it reflects the political and cultural anxieties of the age. Authors include Walpole, Radcliffe, Lewis, Austen, M. Shelley, and E. Bronte.

The course will center on the neglected genre of the non-academic essay, also referred to as creative nonfiction.

We will read and discuss historical and contemporary British essayists for a deeper understanding of rhetoric and aesthetics, for insight into London, and as models for writing. Each student will write a series of creative nonfiction essays (and some poetry and/or prose fiction, if they wish) based on cultural artifacts and sites from various periods in London’s history, as well as the present. In the tradition of the essay, the writing for this course will combine both personal and critical perspectives.
