Charting its vicissitudes from Walpole to Scott, James Watt shows the Gothic to have been a heterogeneous body of fiction, characterized at times by antagonistic relations between writers or works. This book, first published in 1999, examines the novels' political import, and looks ahead to the fluctuating critical status of Scott and the Gothic.
