Gothic Romanticism: 1780-1830s
Wider literary movement was Romanticism 1780s-1830s. Romanticism was the antithesis of

Homely/Victorian Gothic: 1850s
Well established gothic tropes, gothic becoming more psychological and domestic (more everyday
life, more relatable and familiar, more in present rather than past, close rather than isolated)
Heimlich (uncanny Freud 1919): what is both familiar and concealed. Unheimlich is something that
should have remained a secret but has been revealed. Uncanny disruptions of the boundaries
between inside and outside, reality and delusion, propriety and corruption.
MORE PSYCHOLOGICAL, what is truly a threat and what is imagination drawn from terror?
