Lodore: Gothic Romance Novel
Mary Shelley
Synopsis "Lodore: Gothic Romance Novel"
Lodore focuses on the microcosm of the family. The central story follows the fortunes of the wife and daughter of the title character, Lord Lodore, who is killed in a duel, leaving a trail of legal, financial, and familial obstacles for the two "heroines" to negotiate. Lodore's daughter, Ethel, is raised to be over-dependent on paternal control while his estranged wife, Cornelia, is preoccupied with the norms and appearances of aristocratic society. They are both contrasted with the intellectual and independent Fanny Derham.
Mary Shelley (1797-1851) fue una escritora, dramaturga, ensayista y biógrafa británica. Es una de las escritoras más importantes e influyentes de las letras británicas del siglo XIX. Su poderosa imaginación y su inagotable sed de concimiento le llevaron a concebir Frankenstein, una de las novelas más leídas y estudiadas desde su publicación. Además escribió otras novelas, como El último hombre o Perkin Warbeck, y un buen número de relatos.
