| dc.description.abstract | The present study examines how space as a structural and conceptual notion highlights the experience of Gothic horror in Anne Radcliffe's The Mysteries of Udolpho. For in-stance, it underlines the importance of spatial form and the spatialisation of the narrative aspects like focalisation. It ultimately aims to demonstrate that space is regarded as a practical and significant tool for the interpretation of horror psychology. Through the application of Freud's theory of "the Uncanny", space is taken as a reinforced phenomenon itself via being a defamiliarizing and an uncontrolled setting to which the characters are primarily bound. To stress upon the importance of space, the novel is also approached for the analysis of the characters and their subjective experiences vis-à-vis space employing the principles of "the Uncanny", like, the Doppelg?nger and repetition compulsion. Overall, the study encourages a different way of looking at space in literature; a way of reading and perceiving space through various illustrations and critical comments. | ar |
