Description

This study applies Victor Turners theory of liminality to an examination of early British Gothic fiction and its cultural context. Contrary to the widespread belief that the Gothic is escapist in nature a close reading of novels such as William Godwins Caleb Williams 1794 Mary Shelleys Frankenstein 1818 or Charles Maturins Melmoth the Wanderer 1820 reveals that they actively engage with sociopolitical and educational debates of the time. Using the licence of fantastic literature the Gothic sets up social experiments in which young inexperienced protagonists have to face a variety of institutions.
