When “The Yellow Wall Paper” was first written it was understood as a horror story; Society at the time did not understand its true meaning until later on in history. Gilman‚ the author of “The Yellow Wall Paper”‚ never intended his story to be Gothic Horror‚ but with the story being focused around the mental illness of a woman‚ many viewed it as just that.

In the poem Kubla Khan by Samuel Coleridge‚ language is used to convey images from Coleridge’s imagination. This is done with the use of vocabulary‚ imagery‚ structure‚ use of contrasts‚ rhythm and sound devices such as alliteration and assonance.

To what extent do you agree that obsession is a significant element in the gothic writing you have studied? The word obsession means the domination of one’s thoughts or feelings by a persistent idea‚ image or desire.
