This is proven by the fact that from the end of the eighteenth century to the beginning of the nineteenth century more than fifty female authors wrote Gothic romances. In the first part the paper depicts the emergence of romances, clarifies the notion of the Gothic and explains the theory of Gothic romances. The second part focuses on Ann Radcliffe's first novel, The Castles of Athlin and Dunbayne. This section analyses in what way men and women react to crises. It concludes that reactions are primarily based not on sex but on the benevolence and malevolence of literary characters. The former react with higher intensity on the physical level (passing out, becoming ill) and the latter react vehemently in emotional sense towards their rivals. The originality of the article lies in the systematic analysis of characters' responses to crisis and in the study of atypical features of this Gothic novelGotske romance so bile povečini ženska domena. To dokazuje dejstvo, da je od konca osemnajstega do začetka devetnajstega stoletja gotske romance pisalo več kot petdeset avtoric. V prvem delu članek oriše pojav romanc, pojasni pojmovanje gotike in razloži teorijo gotskih romanc. Drugi del obravnava prvi roman Ann Radcliffe, in sicer Gradova Athlin and Dunbayne. V njem razišče, kako se na krize odzivajo moški in ženske, in ugotovi, da odziv v veliki meri ni odvisen od spola, temveč od dobronamernosti oz. zlobe literarnih likov. Prvi se bolj odzivajo z večjo intenziteto v fizičnem smislu (omedlevanje, obolevanje), slednji pa z burnim čustvenih reagiranjem, uperjenim proti rivalom. Originalnost članka leži v sistematični analizi odzivov literarnih protagonistov in antagonistov ter atipičnosti proučevanega gotskega romanaTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Ljubljani, Filozofska fakulteta, Znanstvena založba
