Extractions: William Beckford, from Vathek Vathek pages in the Norton Web site for "Literary Gothicism." Though he wrote several other works, including two books of travel, he is now principally known for the raucous and sensational Vathek , originally written in French in 1782, first published in English translation (largely by Samuel Henley) in 1786, and subsequently read by practically everyone of note in the next hundred years. Keats mentions it in his letters and drew on it for some of his descriptions in Hyperion ; Byron used it extensively in his notes to The Giaour ; Stéphane Mallarmé, who issued an edition of the French version in 1876, termed it "one of the proudest freaks of the nascent modern imagination" (Alan Richardson, introduction to

http://pluto.scs.ryerson.ca/~monica/beckford.htm

Extractions: Gothic Labyrinth Next Center Home Contact Beckford was the nephew of the notorious Lady Emma Hamilton the mistress of Lord Nelson . Like her, he was considered outside the social pale owing to the scandal over his relationship with the young heir of Powderham castle. Byron was sympathetic to his plight, writing of Unhappy Vathek in Childe Harold , thou wert smitten with unhallowed thirst/Of nameless crime, and thy sad day must close/To scorn, and Solitude unsought - the worst of woes. The nameless crime, sodomy, was also attributed to Byron , and this was likely one of the reasons he exiled himself to the continent. Beckford had also tried exile, but felt even more trapped by it than by his self-incarceration. How tired I am of wearing a mask, how tight it sticks - it makes me sore, he wrote in Lisbon. At Fonthill, Beckford mentored the young Benjamin Disraeli, later prime minister, encouraging his writing and particularly offering admiration for The Wondrous Tale of Alroy a work clearly inspired by Vathek , which also was an important influence on Byron 's The Giaour George Meredith 's The Shaving of Shagpat Joris-Karl Huysmans , and the poetry of Mallarme and Swinburne , among others, including the more recent novellas of Ronald Firbank Vathek , like Wilde 's Salome , was originally written in French, then translated into English.
