This§book explores the complex relationship between British modernism and the Gothic§tradition over several centuries of modern literary and cultural history.§Illuminating the blind spots of Gothic criticism and expanding the range of§cultural material that falls under the banner of this tradition, Daniel Darvay§focuses on how late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century British writers§transform the artifice of Gothic ruins into building blocks for a distinctively§modernist architecture of questions, concerns, images, and arguments. To make§this argument, Darvay takes readers back to early exemplars of the genre§thematically rooted in the English Reformation, tracing it through significant§Victorian transformations to finally the modernist period. Through writers such§as Oscar Wilde, Joseph Conrad, Virginia Woolf, E. M. Forster, and D. H.§Lawrence, this book ultimately expands the boundaries of the Gothic genre and§provides a fresh, new approach to better understanding the modernist movement.§
