S1:E2 | Father of Gothic Lit: Horace Walpole
Horace Walpole lived and breathed the Gothic. His novel, The Castle of Otranto, is considered the first English Gothic novel, earning him the title of ‘father of Gothic’. In this episode, we’ll look at his biography, his inspiration for his “Gothic story”, and his legacy. [1:15] “For the man who began the English Gothic novel era, he isn’t exactly what you’d expect.” [12:48] “If you’ve read Shakespeare’s Hamlet, you’ll get a very similar vibe to Otranto.” [15:59] “Let the critics have their say: I shall not be vexed: it was not written for their age whic...

The foreigner would need to heavily rely upon his new British statesmen to ensure the House of Hanover would survive. ...

Gothic Fiction | The Castle of Otranto | Horace Walpole
The Castle of Otranto is regarded as the first Gothic novel, a genre appealing to a taste for terror and set in a remote past when prodigies and magic can be imagined to have existed, with violent contrasts between purity and ungoverned passions. The author represents the tale as having been translated from a black letter Italian volume of the 15th century but describing much earlier events. This fictional antiquity and the depiction of mysterious wonders, dark subterranean passages, fearsome apparitions, marvelous coincidences, and especially a savage threat to spotless innocence are all typical of this genre, which does...

The origins of words always make for fascinating reading. But ‘serendipity’ has a particularly interesting origin story. The word ‘serendipity’ was invented on 28 January 1754 in a letter from Horace Walpole to another Horace—Mann.When Walpole (son of Britain’s first de facto Prime Minister, Robert Walpole) wrote down the word ‘serendipity’ for the first time, he was giving the English language one of its most adored, but bewildering...
