Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Mysterious Mother" by Horace Walpole is a gripping and controversial play that delves into themes of incest, guilt, and the supernatural. Set in a dark and atmospheric castle, the play follows the tragic story of Countess Matilda, who finds herself caught in a web of deceit and forbidden desire. At the heart of the drama is Matilda's complex relationship with her son, Adelbert, whose return to the castle reignites long-buried emotions and secrets. As their forbidden passion grows, Matilda and Adelbert struggle to reconcile their feelings with the societal taboos that surround them, leading to a series of shocking revelations and devastating consequences. Walpole's masterful storytelling and vivid imagery create a sense of unease and suspense that permeates every scene of the play. Through its exploration of taboo subjects and moral ambiguity, "The Mysterious Mother" challenges audiences to confront their own preconceptions about love, family, and morality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book-length study of Horace Walpole’s scandalous The Mysterious Mother, including critical essays, an abridged script, and a facsimile edition Horace Walpole’s five-act tragedy The Mysterious Mother (1768), a sensational tale of incest and intrigue, was initially circulated only among the author’s friends. Walpole never permitted it to be performed during his lifetime except as a private theatrical. He described his play as a “delicious entertainment for the closet” and claimed that he “did not think it would do for the stage.” Yet the essays in this volume trace a history of private readings, amateur theatricals, and even early public performances, demonstrating that the play was read and performed more than Walpole’s protests suggest. Exploring a wide variety of topics—including the play’s crypto-Catholicism, its treatments of incest, guilt, motherhood, orphans, and scientific spectacle, and the complex relations between print and performance—the essays demonstrate the rich relevance of The Mysterious Mother to current critical discussions. The volume includes the proceedings of a mini-conference hosted at Yale University in 2018 on the occasion of a staged reading of the play. Also included are the director’s reflections, an abridged script, a facsimile of Walpole’s own copy of the full-length play, and reproductions of the illustrations he commissioned from Lady Diana Beauclerk.

Download or read book The Castle of Otranto and The Mysterious Mother written by Horace Walpole and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2003-01-02 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Broadview edition pairs the first Gothic novel with the first Gothic drama, both by Horace Walpole. Published on Christmas Eve, 1764, on Walpole’s private press at Strawberry Hill, his Gothicized country house, The Castle of Otranto became an instant and immediate classic of the Gothic genre as well as the prototype for Gothic fiction for the next two hundred years. Walpole’s brooding and intense drama, The Mysterious Mother, focuses on the protagonist’s angst over an act of incest with his mother, and includes the appearance of Father Benedict, Gothic literature’s first evil monk. Appendices in this edition include selections from Walpole’s letters, contemporary responses, and writings illustrating the aesthetic and intellectual climate of the period. Also included is Sir Walter Scott’s introduction to the 1811 edition of The Castle of Otranto.
