Art of Darkness is an ambitious attempt to describe the principles governing Gothic literature. Ranging across five centuries of fiction, drama, and verse—including tales as diverse as Horace Walpoles The Castle of Otranto, Shelleys Frankenstein, Coleridges The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, and Freuds The Mysteries of Enlightenment—Anne Williams proposes three new premises: that Gothic is «poetic,» not novelistic, in nature that there are two parallel Gothic traditions, Male and Female and that the Gothic and the Romantic represent a single literary tradition.
