PROF. ANNALISA OBOE
Course title: “Gothic Afterlives.”
It examines how the Gothic, a key genre in British literature of the late 18th century, persists and evolves through the 19th century. We will consider how Gothic elements haunt the century’s major literary movements, including Romanticism, Victorian realism, and Decadence.
We will read four novels in full, considering both form and content, and placing each text in its historical, social, and literary context. These texts will also be compared with one another to trace the changing expressions of the Gothic throughout the century.
