That will scarcely be possible,' said Emily smiling, as she followed the winding of the passage, which opened into another gallery: and then Annette, perceiving that she had missed her way, while she had been so eloquently haranguing on ghosts and fairies, wandered about through other passages and galleries, till, at length, frightened by their intricacies and desolation, she called aloud for assistance.

Autorenporträt
Ann Radcliffe was an English novelist and a pioneering figure in Gothic fiction, born on July 9, 1764, in Holborn, London. She gained significant recognition for her work in the Gothic genre, especially in the 1790s. Radcliffe was known for her distinctive approach of explaining seemingly supernatural events with rational or natural explanations, which helped elevate Gothic fiction's status during her time. Her writing was not only influential but also pivotal in shaping the structure of the Gothic novel. She married William Radcliffe in 1787, and the couple remained together until her death. Ann Radcliffe's works, such as The Mysteries of Udolpho and The Italian, are widely regarded as classics of Gothic literature. Her novels are notable for their complex plots, atmospheric settings, and exploration of the interplay between reason and the supernatural. Radcliffe's ability to weave suspense, mystery, and psychological tension made her one of the most prominent authors of the genre. She passed away on February 7, 1823, in Ramsgate, leaving behind a lasting legacy in the world of literature. Her impact on Gothic fiction and her unique style continue to be appreciated by readers and scholars alike.
