Unauthorised Reproduction Prohibited. 1. The Sadleir-Black Collection It was not long before the lust for Gothic Romance took complete possession of me. Some instinct – for which I can only be thankful – told me not to stray into 'Sensibility', 'Pastoral', or 'Epistolary' novels of the period 1770-1820, but to stick to Gothic Novels and Tales of Terror. Michael Sadleir, XIX Century Fiction It seems appropriate that the Sadleir-Black collection of Gothic fictions, a genre peppered with illicit passions, should be described by its progenitor as the fruit of lust. Michael Sadleir (1888-1957), the person who cultivated this passion, was a noted bibliographer, book collector, publisher and creative writer. Educated at Rugby and Balliol College, Oxford, Sadleir joined the office of the publishers Constable and Company in 1912, becoming Director in 1920. He published seven reasonably successful novels; important biographical studies of Trollope, Edward and Rosina Bulwer, and Lady Blessington; and a number of ground-breaking bibliographical works, most significantly Excursions in Victorian Bibliography (1922) and XIX Century Fiction (1951).

“Tyranny of the Contemporary and Literary Redundancy

Great art provides not just a reflection of society, it offers us a distillation and insight into times events and people. Joyce has suggested that if Dublin was destroyed it could be recreated from his seminal descriptions in Ulysses. Insights should have validity beyond the time in which the work was written and placed. All great art has a universality of appeal; the work of Michelangelo, Shakespeare and Bach transcends its physical and temporal dimension – it can as Joyce has suggested serve as an epiphany of the artistic experience portrayed. It can, perhaps more accurately, serve as an episteme for the period in which the work was executed. Placed against such a standard only a fraction of output over time can be considered great. But there are also standards by which a work can be considered to have Regional National and International importance.

Revising Ann Radcliffe
CARDIFF CORVEY: READING THE ROMANTIC TEXT Archived Articles Issue 3, No 3 —————————— REVISING THE RADCLIFFEAN MODEL Regina Maria Roche’s Clermont and Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey —————————— Anthony Mandal ANTHONY MANDAL REVISING THE RADCLIFFEAN MODEL I THIS paper seeks to consider the influence of Ann Radcliffe’s fiction on the literary scene at the end of the eighteenth century. It will examine two very different responses to the Radcliffean paradigm, through a study of three aspects of her variety of Gothic as developed by Jane Austen and Regina Maria Roche. By contrasting the reactions of these authors to divergent strains which exist within her work, the legacy that Radcliffe bequeathed her contemporaries might be observed in the writings of other significant authors from the Romantic period. As a consequence of this, it might also become clearer how Austen’s own parodic stance can be seen operating within the limits set by the structures of Radcliffe’s romances. No better example of Radcliffean Gothic exists than the immensely popular Mysteries of Udolpho, the novel having gone through four editions and numerous impressions between 1794 and 1799. As well as Austen’s only ‘Gothic’ text, against Udolpho one can compare a comparably popular work by Regina Maria Roche: Clermont, which was published by the avatar of populist literature, the Minerva Press. Clermont is, in fact, one of the seven ‘horrid novels’ mentioned by Isabella Thorpe to Catherine Morland early in Northanger Abbey.1 Roughly speaking, both Clermont and Northanger Abbey were written contemporaneously, presenting comparable instances of eighteenth-century reactions to Radcliffe.

It is one of seven titles that Isabella Thorpe says that Catherine Morland must read after finishing The Mysteries of Udolpho: “Dear creature! How much I am obliged to you; and when you have finished Udolpho, we will read The Italian together; and I have made out a list of ten or twelve more of the same kind for you.” “Have you, indeed! How glad I am! What are they all?” “I will read you their names directly; here they are, in my pocketbook. Castle of Wolfenbach, Clermont, Mysterious Warnings, Necromancer of the Black Forest, Midnight Bell, Orphan of the Rhine, and Horrid Mysteries. Those will last us some time.” “Yes, pretty well; but are they all horrid, are you sure they are all horrid?”1 For a long time, The Necromancer and the other ‘horrid novels’ were thought to have been Jane Austen’s invention, until they were discovered in the 1920s by Austen’s biographer Michael Sadleir.2 However, as Northanger Abbey was first written around 1798/99, Austen is referring to recent publications from the Minerva Press, the leading publisher of Gothic fiction in England at the time; Isabella’s list provides the reader with a useful overview of the contemporary Gothic fiction of which The Necromancer was a popular example.

The Gothic Novel in Ireland, C. 1760–1829
4 Gothic materialities: Regina Maria Roche, the Minerva Press, and the bibliographic spread of Irish gothic fiction • vocative of the nationally transformative potential of travel sketched Ein The old Irish baronet (1808) and The tradition of the castle (1824), Regina Maria Roche’s The castle chapel (1825) establishes the global journey of one of its two protagonists as the key to restored and refreshed identities at home. Compelled by his dependent status to conciliate the favour of a rich uncle by travelling first to India and then throughout Europe, William Delamere returns to Ireland considerably wealthier, materially and experientially, than when he left. There, literally and metaphorically enriched by his travels, he marries his childhood sweetheart, Grace O’Neil, restoring her family to the status and prosperity denied to them by a lengthy history of violent dispossession and metatextually rework- ing a similar union in Edgeworth’s Ennui (1809). In that novel, Lord Glenthorn’s marriage to Cecilia Delamere and assumption of his wife’s name is a symbolic act of rebirth that both reinvests him with an aris- tocratic identity and signals, in Clíona Ó Gallchoir’s terms, ‘the collapse of the patrilineal system’, as suggested by the translation of ‘de-la-mère’ as ‘of-the-mother’.1 The castle chapel, by contrast, places emphasis on another possible translation of Delamere – ‘de-la-mer’ or ‘of-the-sea’ – in order to suggest the centrality of mobility to Ireland’s future. Against Glenthorn’s alternately purposeless and boredom-driven travel

The Economy of Novel Reading: Jane Austen and the Circulating Library
SEL 30(1990) ISSN 0039-3657 The Economy of Novel Reading: Jane Austen and the Circulating Library LEE ERICKSON Many readers will have first learned of the circulating library from the scene in Pride and Prejudice during which Mr. Collins is asked to read to the Bennet family after dinner: Mr. Collins readily assented, and a book was produced; but on beholding it, (for every thing announced it to be from a circulating library,) he started back, and begging pardon, protested that he never read novels.-Kitty stared at him, and Lydia exclaimed.-Other books were produced and after some deliberation he chose Fordyce's Sermons.' Lydia soon interrupts this solemnity and offends Mr. Collins sufficiently so that he abandons his reading. This passage suggests that books from a circulating library were identifiable from a distance, that such books were likely to be novels, and that stuffy clergymen did not read them while young ladies read little else. Moreover, it is evident that this scene of reading and, indeed, the novel itself are embedded within a system of book distribution centering on the circulating library. As is clear elsewhere in Austen's novels and especially in Sanditon, the circulating libraries made reading fashionable when books were very expensive. By 1800, most copies of a novel's edition were sold to the libraries, which were flourishing businesses to be found in every major English city and town, and which promoted the sale of books during a period when their price rose relative to the cost of living. The libraries created a market for the publishers' product and encouraged readers to read more by charging them an annual subscription fee that would entitle them to check out a specified number of volumes at one time.

Introduction “I will read you their names directly; here they are, in my pocketbook. Castle of Wolfenbach, Clermont, Mysterious Warnings, Necromancer of the Black Forest, Midnight Bell, Orphan of the Rhine, and Horrid Mysteries. Those will last us some time.” “Yes, pretty well; but are they all horrid, are you sure they are all horrid?” “Yes, quite sure.”1 This oft-quoted passage from Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey (1818), in which the character Isabella Thorpe provides the heroine Catherine Morland with a reading list of eighteenth-century Gothic novels, is the source from which critics would later assemble these individual volumes into a collective attribution known as ‘The Northanger ‘Horrid’ Novels.’ Initially believed to be fictitious titles created by Austen, when rumors of their existence first began to circulate the critic George Saintsbury declared: “I should like some better authority than Miss Isabella Thorpe’s to assure me of their existence.”2 So began a long tradition that inherently linked the ‘Horrid’ novels to Austen and Northanger Abbey—an association that would prove detrimental to the former.
