Select Bibliography
Adriana Craciun, formerly of the University of California at Davis, now teaches in the English Department at the University of Nottingham.
Through Victoria, the femme fatale heroine of her powerful Gothic
novel, Charlotte Dacre revels in the uninhibited expression of
female desire; for sexual consummation, for psychological and
political power, for religious transgression. This novel is
superbly edited and introduced by Adriana Craciun." - Anne K.
Mellor, UCLA
"Like other editions in this fine series, this one provides an
informative critical introduction, as well as several appendixes
featuring notable sources for Dacre's novel and selections from the
reviews it received in 1806." - Nineteenth-Century Literature
