Evangelical Gothic

- The English Novel and the Religious War on Virtue from Wesley to Dracula

About Evangelical Gothic

Explores the bitter antagonism that prevailed between two defining institutions of nineteenth-century Britain: Evangelicalism and the popular novel. Herbert contends that the realistic popular novel of the time was constitutionally alien to Evangelical ideology and even, to some extent, took its opposition to that ideology as its core function.
