Description

Un seul roman : il n'en faut pas plus à Horace Walpole pour conduire la sensibilité romanesque de son temps sur de nouvelles voies. Le Château d'Otrante (1764) inaugure le genre du récit gothique, où le passé tient le présent à la gorge et où un Moyen Âge angoissant empiète sur les Lumières. La mixité générique de ce livre fondateur, où le sublime coexiste avec le grotesque en vertu d'un hiatus emprunté à Shakespeare, va essaimer pendant près d'un siècle. Les romanciers gothiques anglais tirent parti de la passion la plus invasive et la mieux ancrée dans la psyché : la peur. Macabres et spectaculaires, situées au coeur de demeures hantées ou de souterrains parsemés d'ossements, leurs histoires doivent produire des émotions extrêmes, en premier lieu la terreur et la pitié. Confronté à la noirceur d'âme de "héros" monomaniaques et déviants prêts à briser tous les tabous (inceste, matricide, viol), le lecteur va de frayeur en horreur avant de compatir aux malheurs des victimes - de sexe féminin pour la plupart. En 1796, Le Moine de M. G. Lewis atteint les sommets en matière de sensationnalisme, avec une forte dimension érotique et mortifère qui fit beaucoup pour le succès de ce roman, toujours actif aujourd'hui. En 1818, la jeune Mary Shelley parachève cette tradition en donnant naissance à une créature monstrueuse qui se nourrit des mythes de Prométhée et de Faust. Elle met en discours un concept inouï : l'assemblage, à partir de morceaux de chair morte, d'un être humain, par le docteur Victor Frankenstein, qui fait fi de la sexualité et de la reproduction biologique. Féconde invention...
