Goth has opened the minds and inspired a lot of people throughout time. There is so much that can tell us about gothic such as gothic architecture, literature, music etc… (think syou could add anything to this)
Gothic architecture is a style of architecture which flourished from the 12th to the 16th century. Most gothic buildings had pointed arches, stained glass windows, narrow spires and flying buttresses. All this is to symbolize the upward movement of heaven. Gothic architecture is the most familiar as the architecture of many great cathedrals, abbey, parish churches, castles, palaces, town halls and universities of Europe. It is in the great churches and cathedrals that gothic style was expressed most powerfully.
Gothic literature is a genre that combines horror and romance. As a genre it is generally believed to have been invented but English author Horace Walpole, with his 1764 novel ‘The Castle of Otranto’. After that a lot of people were encouraged to write in gothic style. A typical Gothic story is set in and around a castle – ruined or otherwise usually graveyard, cave, convent, monastery, church, cathedral, chapel, dungeon or charnel house. Gothic atmosphere is really important. Towers, trapdoors, mysterious corridors, rusty hinges, tunnels, and lightless niches all serve to entrap their helpless victims. Flickering candles, burial vaults, tolling bells, hidden manuscripts, curses and prophecies, suits of armor, ghosts, clanking chains, animated portraits, lamps, evil potions and spells, fluttering bats, storms, lightening, and howling winds add to the aura of terror and mystery that define the Gothic genre. A wide range of elements that create a sense of terror, decay, despair, or death can contribute to a Gothic setting. Heroes and hero-victims, villains, and split-personalities found in Gothic fiction tend to fit certain characteristic molds. They are somber, diabolic, or pure and angelic virtue, or they are a combination of those types.
Gothic music has different styles and meanings. ‘How Beautiful You Are’ is a song by Robert Smith. The song is about love. A short summary of the song would be that there is this beautiful woman. A man and his father pass by and both the man and his father both say ‘How Beautiful You Are’. As mentioned before gothic is both romance and horror another example of a gothic song would be ‘Tainted Love’ by Marilyn Manson. This song is more horror type. It’s about these people who are having a party. It’s all very bright until a couple of people come along and ruin the brightness in this party, the room goes all black. The music sounds very heavy but the lyrics aren’t that depressive. These two songs show how gothic music can have different ways of expressing what it is.
