He also explores the influence of Romantic poets such as William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge on the development of Gothic literature.The book provides a comprehensive overview of the Gothic genre and its relationship to English Romanticism, as well as offering insights into the cultural and historical context of the period. It is a valuable resource for students and scholars of English literature, as well as for anyone interested in the Gothic tradition and its enduring appeal.1927. The purpose of the present work is to serve as a guide to English horror- romanticism, and by presenting the chief materials used by it and grouping them according to the various themes employed, to show how the main romantic movement that began at the turn of the century and is represented in all shorter expositions of the subject as a suddenly bursting wave, as a kind of spontaneous revolution, is in all essentials the outcome of an organic development with widely spread roots that penetrate deep into the past.
