章节摘录

Gothic romantic fiction, a type of historical romantic fiction with gothicelements, is the main current of British romantic fiction in 1960s. This newtide originates from a famous British woman writer, Eleanor Hibbert （1906-1993）. In 1960, having been inspired by the whole success of Mary Johnston'sto Have and to Hold （1900） and Daphne du Maurier （1907 - 1989）'s Rebecca（1938）, Eleanor Hibbert wrote Mistress of Mellyn （1960） by boldly blendinggothic mystery and horror elements into historical romantic fiction. This bookgot instant sensation after being published under the pen name of VictoriaHolt. The next year, it got republished in London and was also warmlywelcomed. After that, she published six gothic romantic novels in succession,and accumulated sales accounted for 4,000,000 volumes. Then, Britishwoman writers like Dorothy Eden （1912- 1982）, Anya Seton （1904- 1990）and Mary Stewart （1916 -） all made their works successfully. EspeciallyMary Stewart, she was named as the queen of gothic romantic fiction. HerNine Coaches Waiting （1958） and other ten books were always among the listsof bestsellers, totally sold up to 10,000,000 volumes. At the same time,Daphne du Maurier continued to follow the road of Rebecca and published MyCousin Rache （1951） and other bestselling books.The birth and development of gothic romantic fiction is inseparable fromthe complicated social background. In 1960s, the popular images in Englishsociety were images of youth, liberation. A group of young rule-breakers likeHippie and Beatnik gradually filtered new ideas into people's mind,influencing people's values and beliefs. But there is, of course, the other sideof the 1960s —— a post-war Britain, temporarily affluent, but had to cope withthe loss of her position as a world power and underwent a process ofdecolonization which paid attention to the historical meaning of loss ofEmpire.
