The Monster in British Gothic Fiction
 BUREŠOVÁ, Kateřina
The Gothic fiction of the 19th century features a number of characters with monstrous qualities as the genre focuses on the darker side of our reality. It populates its pages with supernatural, monstrous beings that bring terror and anxiety to their victims. These characters and their counterparts thus shed light onto the fears, anxieties and paradoxes of 19th century Britain. As they hunt, terrorise, unsettle and cross boundaries they reveal to us the tenets of human nature. Examination of seminal Gothic characters such as the vampire in Dracula, Carmilla and Christabel, the Creature and his creator in Frankenstein and the sinister doubles of The Picture of Dorian Gray and Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde thus helps us understand the mind-set of that era.
