http://www.freilach.com/Literatur/walpole.htm
Harry Timmermann
"Träume waren mein liebster Weidegrund"
Die Entstehung des englischen Schauerromans, der sogenannten "Gothic Navel", läßt sich, wie bei kaum einem literarischen Genre sonst, auf den Tag, ja auf die Nacht genau angeben. Ein Traum ist sein Ursprung, geträumt wahrscheinlich in der Nacht vom 4. zum 5. Juni 1764, ein Sommernachtstraum des sechsundvierzigjährigen Politikersohnes und Schloßherrn von "Strawberry Hill" Horace Walpole. Im Brief an einen Jugendfreund, geschrieben am 8. März 1765, kurz vor der Drucklegung der zweiten Auflage des Romans: "Die Burg von Otranto", schildert der Verfasser diesen Traum und seine Folgen:
Die psychologisch-sentimentalen Brieframane Samuel Richardsons, die komischen Prosaepen Henry Fieldings und die Schelmenromane Tobias Smollets sind, bei aller Verschiedenheit, gemeinsamer Ausdruck dieses neuen, gerade erst stabilisierten Realitätsbewußtseins im Roman und seines Anspruchs auf getreue Nachahmung der Erfahrungswirklichkeit. Und doch nennt etwa Lord Byron, als hätte es Richardson, Fielding und Smollet und auch Lawrence Sterne, nicht vor Walpole gegeben, diesen den "Vater des ersten Romans " Englands. Mit "Roman" kann Byron hier nur die durch Walpole zu neuem Leben erweckte Gattung der Phantastik und des Wunderbaren und nicht die der Wirklichkeitsabbildung meinen. aber Walpoles Stellung in der englischen Literaturgeschichte schreibt der Romantiker Byron 1821 (in der Vorrede zu seiner Tragödie "Narino Faliero):

    • Walpole, Horace, 1717-1797. Dice box. Johnson, Jane, 1706-1759. Very pretty story. Fairy tales Great Britain 18th century French influences.
    Abstract:
      This essay discusses two eighteenth-century English literary fairy tales for children. The first, "The Dice Box," included by Horace Walpole in his six Hieroglyphic Tales (1785), written for the nine-year-old niece of a friend, probably in 1757, is unique, surreal in its nonsense, Rabelaisian with sophisticated sexual innuendo. In sharp contrast Jane Johnson's "A Very Pretty Story," the earliest known English fairy tale for children, written in 1744 and published for the first time in 2001 by the Bodleian Library, Oxford, who have recently acquired the manuscript, is decorous and benign, and was extemporized by a mother for her two small children. Both authors draw on French sources, particularly on Marie-Catherine d'Aulnoy and, in Walpole's case, on Anthony Hamilton, and the article discusses the influence of these on eighteenth-century English writing.

Biografia de Horace Walpole
Home
Volver a Autores Hijo de Sir Robert Walpole, politico, Horace Walpole (1717-1797), es considerado el primer escritor de una novela gotica, "El Castillo de Otranto". Tuvo una juventud apacible, pasando tres años en la universidad de Cambridge con los poetas Thomas Gray y William Mason, sus intimos amigos, pero abandono sus estudios sin haber conseguido el titulo. Su familia quiso que se dedicase a la politica, pero el no mostro ninguna aptitud hacias las cuestiones legales, y aunque intento hacer carrera politica durante un breve tiempo, se limito solamente a sentarse en el Parlamento de vez en cuando. Sir Robert Walpole, a pesar de no ser un hombre de gran fortuna, le dejo a Horance una buena herencia, permitiendole vivir sosegadamente, añadido al salario de su "carrera" politica. Walpole era un hombre de sociedad. Hacia amigos facilmente, y admirador de las antiguedades. Como no tenia muchas mas cosas que hacer, se dedico a mantener una voluminosa correspondencia con gente de sus mismas ideas y caracter, dejando un enorme cuerpo de miles de cartas que escribio a sus numerosos amigos en Inglaterra y Francia, que segun la consideracion oficial, es lo mas valioso de su obra literaria, que da muestras de la politica, costumbres y arte de su epoca. En 1749, hizo su unica contribucion a la cultura europea comprando Strawberry Hill, una pequeña granja con una gran vista sobre el Tamesis, en una carretera principal cerca de Twickenham, cerca de Londres. Aparte de querer usarla como residencia de verano, intento remodelarla para ir transformandola en un castillo del estilo gotico frances. Escribio a su amigo Sir Horace Mann, que estaba en el servicio diplomatico en Florencia, pidiendole cuantos fragmentos goticos (queria decir con esto artefactos medievales ) se pudieran encontrar a precio barato.
