Gothicism in Edgar Allan Poe s Short Stories;
Emily Bronte s Improvement in Gothicism;
Margaret Atwood s Inheritance to and Transcendence over the Feminist Gothicism;
What is more significant in this novel is that Edith Wharton opens a new field in Gothicism--the fear of the opposite sex.
"Ligeia", which Poe thought his best grotesque story, is now, for most readers, a jumble of morbid self-pity, diabolism, and gimcrack Gothicism.
