"Christina Morin's The gothic novel in Ireland c. 1760-1829 is a significant intervention in the study of Anglo-Irish literature and the gothic tradition." - Anthony Mandal, Professor of Print and Digital Cultures, Cardiff University, 'Christina Morin's The gothic novel in Ireland c. 1760-1829 is a significant intervention in the study of Anglo-Irish literature and the gothic tradition. Combining a masterful overview of Romantic era print culture with close readings of hitherto under examined novels, this book suggestively explores the generic interconnectedness between gothic fiction, the national tale and the historical novel. In doing so, it brings to light a much earlier tradition of fiction that emerged from Ireland in the mid-eighteenth century and had a clear impact on the British novelists who followed. As such, The gothic novel in Ireland confidently dispatches long-held views of Irish gothic as a belated phenomenon that emerged in the later nineteenth century. At the same time, Morin delineates acutely the specific conventions and tropes that characterised a distinctively Irish variant of the gothic. Marshalling an impressive range of literary sources, bibliographical evidence and statistical data, Morin provocatively disrupts long-held assumptions about the formative role played by Irish writers at a crucial moment in the history of the novel, making a compelling case for a more nuanced and accurate understanding of the literary relationship between Britain and Ireland during the Romantic century.' Anthony Mandal, Professor of Print and Digital Cultures, Cardiff University 'In its strikingly original overall approach as well as its illuminating discussions of forgotten or neglected early Irish gothic fictions, The Gothic Novel in Ireland, c. 1760-1829 greatly broadens and deepens our knowledge of an important but little-known corpus of literature.' European Romantic Review 'When does the gothic novel begin and end? What are its characteristics? And where does Ireland fit in the literary terrain marked out by modern critics? In this valuable exploration, Christina Morin remaps time, place, and content. She argues that by giving sustained attention to Irish gothic literature we can (and should) widen, deepen, and redefine a field whose formal and generic properties have been at once slippery and overly restrictive... Morin carefully dismantles stereotypes and brings fresh eyes to established conventions. She asks probing questions about why some writers fall into neglect--what Franco Moretti dubbed the slaughterhouse of literature--and looks anew at those judged worthy of the attentions of posterity. For students of the period, this will be an essential text: meticulously researched and attractively written.'

Synopsis
A compelling account of the development of gothic literature in late-eighteenth and early-nineteenth century Ireland., A compelling account of the development of gothic literature in late-eighteenth and early-nineteenth century Ireland. -- ., 'An important and authoritative book, in which Christina Morin steps outside established definitions of 'Irish Gothic' in order to make a fluent and convincing case for a wider, deeper and longer history of Irish fiction. The gothic novel in Ireland not only offers a bracing challenge to existing theories of Irish Gothic, it also reshapes our understanding of the history of the novel in Britain and Ireland while redrawing the map of Irish romanticism.' Claire Connolly, Professor of Modern English, University College Cork ' The gothic novel in Ireland is a very welcome mapping of an almost completely unknown body of fiction - the early Irish Gothic novel. Morin not only brings to an end the literary historical amnesia which allowed so much interesting, important and often compelling fiction to be forgotten, but effectively rescues these novels from what Franco Moretti calls the "slaughterhouse of literature". This study will provide Irish Studies and Gothic Studies scholars with a comprehensivesense of the sheer amount of early Irish Gothic fiction, clarifying how this body of work relates to 'canonical' Irish and, indeed, European fiction. Crucially, Morin carefully refocuses attention on what eighteenth and early nineteenth century writers, critics, and readers understood as 'gothic', rather than retrospectively applying twentieth century reformulations. Her writing is a model of clarity and critical generosity, meaning the study is immensely readable and can be enthusiastically recommended to students as well as critics and scholars. This is the most significant intervention in Irish Gothic Studies for years.' Jarlath Killeen, author of The Emergence of Irish Gothic Fiction: History, Texts, Theories (2013) 'Introducing her readership to revelatory, new examples of Irish Gothic fiction during the Romantic period, Christina Morin's The gothic novel in Ireland, 1760-1829 combines meticulous research with excellent contextualization. It demonstrates just how extensive the symbolic and affective work of the Gothic was in Ireland during the Romantic period, and will become an essential work for future scholars of Gothic, Romanticism and Irish studies.' Angela Wright, Professor of Romantic Literature, University of Sheffield, The gothic novel in Ireland, c. 1760-1829 offers a compelling account of the development of gothic literature in late-eighteenth and early-nineteenth century Ireland. Countering traditional scholarly views of the 'rise' of 'the gothic novel' on the one hand, and, on the other, Irish Romantic literature, this study persuasively re-integrates a body of now overlooked works into the history of the literary gothic as it emerged across Ireland, Britain, and Europe between 1760 and 1829. Its twinned quantitative and qualitative analysis of neglected Irish texts produces a new formal, generic, and ideological map of gothic literary production in this period, persuasively positioning Irish works and authors at the centre of a new critical paradigm with which to understand both Irish Romantic and gothic literary production.
