Description And Narration In Ann Radcliffe's Mysteries Of Udolpho
and Narration in ann radcliffe's Mysteries of Udolpho. Added byGeorge P. Landow, Professor of English and Art History, Brown University.
http://65.107.211.206/previctorian/radcliffe/radcliffe3.html

Extractions: In this passage from The Mysteries of Udolpho . note how Radcliffe begins with exposition and then, in the second paragraph, switches to her narrated description or word-painting . In the paragraphs below I have added underlining to point out typically Gothic (or Gothick) images, descriptions, and emphases. In contrast, I have used a bold font to highlight the techniques that constitute her word-painting. The discussions of sublimity in the Victorian web (particularly those on the way nature dwarfs humanity and Addison's theories ) contain roughly contemporary images of things described in the passage below. You might also wish to check out the brief essay on the relation of sublimity, beauty, and gender solitude , to which she was hastening. At length, the travellers began to ascend among the Apennines. The immense pine-forests, which, at that period, overhung these mountains, and between which the road wound, excluded all view but of the cliffs aspiring above, except, that, now and then, an opening through the dark woods allowed the eye a momentary glimpse of the country below.

The daughter of a successful tradesman, she married William Radcliffe, a law student who later became editor of the English Chronicle. Her best works, The Romance of the Forest The Mysteries of Udolpho (1794), and The Italian (1797), give her a prominent place in the tradition of the Gothic romance . Her excellent use of landscape to create mood and her sense of mystery and suspense had an enormous influence on later writers, particularly Walter Scott. See studies by C. F. McIntyre (1920, repr. 1970) and E. B. Murray (1972).

http://www.iath.virginia.edu/courses/enec981/brady2.html

Extractions: Ann Radcliffe The Italian The painterly aspect of Radcliffe's writing, I think, may lead it to elude analysis by the techniques we are comfortable with. In the course of reading for this response, I kept running across seemingly contradictory statements about the novel. For example, in the introduction to our (the Oxford) text, Frederick Garber writes, "Radcliffe's novels fit comfortably into the form of the Bildungsroman...." (x) But later on the same page, he notes that "her characters are generalized members of a class, and remain subordinate to the scenes in which they appear." (x) In fact, I think that both of these statements *can* be correct, and we can have a novel that describes the development of character on one hand, while dealing with psychologically 'flat' personae, on the other. One aspect of Radcliffe's technique seems better captured by Andrew Wright, when he says "she had the knack of stimulating the reader's own dream-making function, which then took over and supplied the private horrors of each individual imagination." (Andrew Wright, Introduction, to *** p. xiv) When psychology is portrayed through reference to scenery, individuation of character is allowed to occur through a roll-playing function in the reader, which unfolds within the boundaries set out by the text. Another feature of the technique, I think, is the importance of repetition, and the establishment of something like a domestic relation between scenery and the personality of one or several characters. Through returns, vistas become the home for complexes of feelings.

It is, however, contained in a manuscript in our library, of which, I could, perhaps, procure you a sight. A brother of our order, a descendant of the noble house of Mazzini, collected and recorded the most striking incidents relating to his family, and the history thus formed, he left as a legacy to our convent. If you please, we will walk thither." I accompanied him to the convent, and the friar introduced me to his superior, a man of an intelligent mind and benevolent heart, with whom I passed some hours in interesting conversation. I believe my sentiments pleased him; for by his indulgence, I was permitted to take abstracts of the history before me, which, with some further particulars obtained in conversation with the abate, I have arranged in the following pages.

Extractions: VOL. I. VOL. I. CHAP. I. "What is this secret sin; this untold tale, That art cannot extract, nor penance cleanse?" Mysterious Mother. It was in the church of San Lorenzo at Naples, in the year 1758, that Vincentio di Vivaldi first saw Ellena Rosalba. The sweetness and fine expression of her voice attracted his attention to her figure, which had a distinguished air of delicacy and grace; but her face was concealed in her veil. So much indeed was he fascinated by the voice, that a most painful curiosity was excited as to her countenance, which he fancied must express all the sensibility of character that the modulation of her tones indicated. He listened to their exquisite expression with a rapt attention, and hardly withdrew his eyes from her person till the matin service had concluded; when he observed her leave the church with an aged lady, who leaned upon her arm, and who appeared to be her mother. Vivaldi immediately followed their steps, determined to obtain, if possible, a view of Ellena's face, and to discover the home to which she should retire. They walked quickly, looking neither to the right or left, and as they turned into the Strada di Toledo he had nearly lost them; but quickening his pace, and relinquishing the cautious distance he had hitherto kept, he overtook them as they entered on the Terrazzo Nuovo, which runs along the bay of Naples, and leads towards the Gran Corso. He overtook them; but the fair unknown still held her veil close, and he knew not how to introduce himself to her notice, or to obtain a view of the features, which excited his curiosity. He was embarrassed by a respectful timidity, that mingled with his admiration, and which kept him silent, notwithstanding his wish to speak.

Extractions: In The Italian, Radcliffe uses a technique of scene painting to invest particular landscapes with complexes of emotional meaning for her characters. This practice is of interest to a study of sensibility in that it emphasizes personal, affective relationships with scenes of nature. In particular, the view of the bay of Naples comes to represent, for Ellena and Vivaldi, a complex of ideas that links their personal love to a familial and domestic ideal. The bay-scene appears first in Chapter 1, as Vivaldi makes his initial clandestine visit to the garden: Later in the same chapter, Vivaldi and Bonarmo return to the garden and experience the following: The night was still, and they now heard, for the first time, murmurs as of a distant multitude; and then the sudden splendor of fireworks broke upon the sky. These arose from a villa on the western margin of the bay, and were given in honor of the birth of one of the royal princes. They soared to an immense height, and, as their lustre broke silently upon the night, it lightened on the thousand up-turned faces of the gazing crowd, illumined the waters of the bay, with every little boat that skimmed its surface, and shewed distinctly the whole sweep of its rising shores, the stately city of Naples on the strand below, and, spreading far among the hills, its terraced roofs crowded with spectators, and the Corso tumultuous with carriages and blazing with torches. Through these two scenes, birth and death, celebration and funeral, anticipation and memory are invoked and associated with Ellena, in Vivaldi's experience of her. Invoked, however, as impressions after the manner of painting which, like Vivaldi's experience of happiness, makes the reader feel "as if that moment was as an eternity, rendering him independent of all others." (31)

http://www.engl.virginia.edu/~enec981/dictionary/13radcliffeD1.html

Extractions: Ellena, after having been so long shut in darkness, and brooding over her own alarming circumstances, found temporary, though feeble, relief in once more looking upon the face of nature; till, her spirits being gradually revived and elevated by the grandeur of the images around her, she said to herself, 'If I am condemned to misery, surely I could endure it with more fortitude in scenes like these, than amidst the tamer landscapes of nature! Here, the objects seem to impart somewhat of their own force, their own sublimity, to the soul. It is scarcely possible to yield to the pressure of misfortune while we walk, as with the Deity, amidst his most stupendous works. Ellena sees the sublime here as an escape from misery, NOT an escape from the mundane. Ellena's misery in this passage comes from her "alarming circumstances": namely, her kidnapping. Yet the mysterious "gothic" circumstances which have led up to Ellena's crisis are the very circumstances which we associate with the sublime. It is conspicuous that Ellena "could endure" her misery "with more fortitude in scenes like these, than amidst the tamer aspects of nature," when it is precisely the un-tameness of Ellena's world which puts her into such a situation. In the gothic, fear is vanquished spectacularly, not through a philosophic turn, or a shift toward the mundane. Related terms: a dictionary of sensibility

In the interest of promoting dialogue among students, faculty, administrators, alumnae/i, and prominent women, the Trust serves as the guiding set of principles on which forums for discussion and interaction are given during each academic year. The Trust is named for Ann Radcliffe who established the first scholarship fund at Harvard College in 1643, and for whom Radcliffe College was named two and a half centuries later. The Ann Radcliffe Trust aims to provide a network of exchange between professional women and students to promote communication and education, and works closely with faculty and students at Harvard College to advance and expand the understanding of women's leadership. Throughout the year the Trust will hold events that bring professional women to campus to meet with students to share their success stories and strategies, and facilitate discussion about a variety of women's issues. The Ann Radcliffe Trust also promotes the Terrie Fried Bloom '75 Harvard College Women's Leadership Awards and sponsors the annual Amy Smith Berylson '75 lecture.

Extractions: An electronic collection compiled by Michael Gamer , Department of English of the University of Pennsylvania. This page has been awarded the distinction of Key Resource by Links 2-Go Please e-mail me with any errors, suggestions, etc. Radcliffe's poems were collected into an edition in 1816, under the title The Poems of Mrs. Ann Radcliffe (London: Printed by and for J. Smith, 1816), 118 pp. This electronic edition seeks to collect together all of the poems featured in her novels; the grouping, therefore, covers the 1816 edition and adds to it a few poems not featured in that edition. As Radcliffe's poetical work in her heyday always worked within her novels, this electronic collection also seeks to put each poem back into its fictional context. Poems from The Castles of Athlin and Dunbayne (1789) Poems from The Mysteries of Udolpho (1794) Castles of Athlin and Dunbaye (London: T. Hookham, 1789), 77-78: "As he was one day standing at the grate which looked upon the castle, observing the progress of these birds, his ear caught the sound of that sweet lute whose notes had once saved him from destruction; it was accompanied by the same melodious voice he had formerly heard, and which now sung [PAGE 78] with impassioned tenderness the following air: When first the vernal morn of life, Beam'd on my infant eye, Fond I survey'd the smiling scene, Nor saw the tempest nigh, Hope's bright illusions touch'd my soul, My yound ideas led; And Fancy's vivid tints combine'd, And fairy prospects spread. My guileless heart expanded wide, With filial fondness fraught; Paternal love that heart supplied With all its fondness sought. But O! the cruel, quick reverse! Fate all I lov'd involv'd; Pale Grief Hope's trembling rays dispers'd, And Fancy's dreams dissolv'd."

Web resources Course description "I am going among Scenery whence I intend to tip you the Damosel Radcliffe I'll cavern you, and grotto you, and waterfall you, and wood you, and water you, and immense-rock you, and tremendous sound you, and solitude you." By the time Keats wrote this in a letter of 1818, the Gothic genre that had been so productive for over thirty years (Radcliffe's first novel was produced in 1789) might have appeared good only for parody. Yet the lure of the genre remained powerful: Frankenstein was published the same year and Polidori's The Vampyre appeared in 1819. In this course we will focus in particular on the psychology of the Gothic and consider how far it enabled writers and readers to explore alternate forms of subjectivity. In particular, long before Freud, Lacan, or Kristeva, Gothic writers attempted to probe Oedipal themes, the power of the symbolic order, or the experience of the abject. This inquiry will be pursued through an interplay between Gothic fictions, the evidence left by their first readers, and some study of modern critical writing on the Gothic.

Extractions: Born to a seventy-year-old father and thirty-year-old mother, Radcliffe inherited a considerable fortune from her father which was intrusted to 2 guardians upon her fathers death. Secretly courted and clandestinely married, Radcliffe would come to regret her impetuous decision. After having 7 children, 2 of whom died, Radcliffe found herself financially destitute. Her kindly, but unemployed, alcoholic husband had dissipated her fortune. After trying several alternatives, Radcliffe sent her sons away to school, left her daughters with her mother, and moved to London where she sold the last of the family possessions, the family silver. Forced to find gainful employment, a humiliating situation for which she was not prepared, Radcliffe eventually found a position as governess to a Scottish aristocratic family, her youngest daughter was sent out to learn dressmaking, and her husband took a position as steward. Mary Ann and her husband would never again live together again for any length of time. Moved by personal experiences, including a nervous collapse, Radcliffe wrote poetry where she described her experiences, loneliness and depression. Motivated by the plight of women around her, as well as, by her own financial needs, Radcliffe wrote her best known work
