In a gothic work, one commonly encounters newlywed couples. supernatural events. exotic locations.<------ My answer. everyday challenges.
is that correct? @tanya123
Gothic literature is related to Dark Romantic literature. It has certain recurring elements in such types of works. One is a dark, ominous tone and the use of dark elements--rain, storm clouds, shadows, etc. So...Do you still think it's C?
oh no lol A?
Nope, Supernatural events. ---> Gothic is a melodrama genre that takes things that are larger than life and places them in the story. Example would be one of the most famous Gothic novels out there: Mary Shelly's Frankenstein
oooohhh okk makes sense now lol
yup! next.
"Gothic" was a term originally applied to works that people thought to be bright. disappointing. lighthearted. barbaric.<------ My answer.
Correct.
yaayyy! that's all! Thank you very much!

I don't remember the story, though I know I've read it long time ago...it's from the 1886. based on a doctor that is transformed into a murderous madman by taking a secret drug of his own creation.
oh well i have questions that i have to answer and i havent read it. can you please help? Using what you know about the historical context at the time of publication, discuss one characteristic of Victorian life that is present in The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Your response should be a minimum of 5 sentences.
1 sentence -> Fear that advancing technology and rapid industrialization would corrupt humanity, and lead people to do monstrous things. Also Idk the rest so you can read this (quite helpful) http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/jekyll/facts.html

In 3-5 sentences, explain one characteristic of a gothic theme present in The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Ok, make it fast please!!
Gothic theme characteristics in general: brooding, elements of the mysterious, and elements of the dark side of things or humans.
In Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Dr. Hattie Lanyon is a friend of Jekyll who lives in Cavendish Square. Utterson questions Lanyon about whether Lanyon has seen Jekyll in the last 10 yrs. Lanyon claims he hasn't seen Jekyll.
so this is the answer?
Yes
