In the 1790s, the music of Gothic novels and plays was celebratory, calming rather than scary. By 1820, the music of Gothic is more likely to provoke shock, discomfort, and unease. This Element shows Melodrama brings about this change which had long-lasting effects on the music of the Gothic in fiction and poetry, on the stage and the screen.
