This volume examines a selection of the most complex and important servant characters and servant narratives in early Gothic literature. It defines servant narratives as a Gothic ‘performance’, and examines such servants’ impact on literary, social and personal identity.

Servants and the Gothic, 1764-1831 provides a comprehensive literary and historical basis for understanding the servant characters and servant narratives that shaped the early Gothic mode. Engaging closely with a wide range of important eighteenth and nineteenth century novels, plays, and bluebooks, Kathleen Hudson redefines servants as an important means of exploring narrative in Gothic literature and illuminates their profound impact on discourses about identity, imagination, and the self.
