Abstract:
Gothic as a literary form became the most popular kind of literature developed in England in the late Eighteenth and early Nineteenth Century with the works such as The Castle of Otranto, The Monk, and Melmoth the Wanderer. Horace Walpole started this genre of gothic fiction with The Castle Of Otranto (1764). Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, the author of Frankenstein: or The Modern Prometheus (1818), has very boldly and majestically described a giant or monster Frankenstein, who became the root cause of troubles in the novel. Likewise, Stephenie Meyer’s The Twilight Saga, which also comes under the gothic genre, has full contents of gothic settings and various supernatural bloodthirsty demonic vampire-themed characters.
The motive of this research paper attempts to explore the gothic elements in the select works of Mary Shelley and Stephenie Meyer. It will deal with the full range of themes related to the gothic genre in the famous excellent works, as mentioned earlier. As both, the novelists attempt to make the world aware of the undead existing in this earthly sphere through their imagination. The work will explore not only the aberrant aspect of gothic literature but also the beast-human relationship, with the association of psychological and physiological circumstances creating the creepy, frightening, and shuddersome settings in these gothic narratives.
