History of British theatre The earliest forms of theatre in Britain were the religious ritual performances of the native Britons. The first theatre in Britain that we may recognize as such was that of the Romans.

A value common in many gothic texts is that of the role of women‚ who are generally demonstrated as weak and incapable‚ especially in difficult and unfamiliar circumstances. In “The Turn of the Screw‚” for example‚ the governess and even Mrs Grose are determined to protect and mother the children yet; ironically‚ they cannot even go as far as to protect themselves mentally. Correspondingly‚ in “Shutter Island‚” it is implied that Teddy’s psychological insecurity is only there due to the trauma his

Stoker‚ Dracula‚ pages 147-204 Ch 13-17 Why is it that so many of the characters are so trusting of Van Helsing? Ever since he came into the picture‚ characters such as Dr. Seward‚ Lucy‚ Arthur‚ and Mina have allowed Van Helsing to do what ever he wants.

He refers to them as “ladies by their dress and manner” stating them to be effeminate and vulgar and this makes it
