An introduction to the Early Gothic and key concepts for OCR Gothic

This is a meticulously researched ppt, which can be printed as a booklet, that covers the key Gothic tropes established in early Gothic literature: Walpole, Radcliffe, Lewis. I also discuss Burke’s theory of the sublime, and the concepts terror and horror. I have embedded key quotations from the OCR delivery guide and from Sue Chaplin’s book on the Gothic. If you look at the examiner reports for the specification, you’ll notice that the early Gothic is mentioned and that students will be expected to understand the genre’s development and how it originates.
