In today’s last episode on the English Gothic novel, we’re tying up loose ends by looking at more women writers in the genre (in chronological order) and how racialized communities have turned Colonial Gothic on its head. All while continuing to demonstrate how the early tropes are still being used (and manipulated) today!

[2:00] “I want to instead highlight women writers and racialized communities and how Gothic has given them a genre to explore their histories, traumas, and feelings.”
[4:17] “But what cannot be missed in Dacre’s work, is the strong and sexual female characters throughout. She challenged established gender roles and boundaries in her work, and for that alone, Zofloya is worth a read.”
[14:06] “Wide Sargasso Sea is part of a tradition of bringing those with mental illness, those off stage, those people of colour, into the main storyline. And more and more modern authors are using the Gothic to do the same.”
