Perfect Introduction to Radcliffe and the Gothic,
By AHS (Granite Falls, NC, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Veiled Picture; or, The Mysteries of Gorgono (Gothic Classics) (Paperback)
This beautiful edition is the ideal introduction to the work of Ann Radcliffe specifically and the Gothic tradition generally. The 1802 text faithfully relates the plot and characterization of 1794's The Mysteries of Udolpho in a far more reader friendly length. Jack G. Voller's introduction, as well as various appendices (including contemporary reviews and reactions, essays, comparisons of the two works, and Ann Radcliffe's own "On Supernatural in Poetry"), add tremendous value, making this a particularly useful volume for any interested reader, and a perfect text for use in the classroom, as well.
