Return to Table of Contents THE MONK By MATTHEW GREGORY LEWIS In The Gothic Quest , Montague Summers relates the amusing antidote that a certain Mrs. Lord opened a lending library in Dublin. She dutifully read The Monk and underlined the "objection-able" passages so readers could be warned to skip them!! Readership increased. One wonders what effect parental ratingsPG 13 etc. have on deterring young viewers today? Because its sensational content eventually resulted in revision and suppression, The Monk is not as well-known as its counterparts, Dracula and Frankenstein. Coleridge, for example, undoubtedly spoke for many religious conservatives: he admired its imaginative content, but questioned its moral viability. Nonetheless, the book exerted an enormous influence on Lewis' contemporaries. To study The Monk then requires carefuly explication: Why did Lewis write it? What characteristics of gothic fiction appear? What is the book's moral and psychological perspective? Are there significant literary allusions? Is the book mimeticdoes it offer significant thematic commentary and on what Perhaps the last question is the most important, for if

Lewis Cass A New Hampshire schoolmate of Daniel Webster's , Lewis Cass moved to Ohio at the turn of the century, where his opposition to Aaron Burr in the Ohio legislature led Thomas Jefferson to appoint him marshal of the state. Thanks to his distinguished performance against the British in 1812, Cass was named governor of Michigan Territory in 1813, a post he held until 1831. During his tenure, Cass amassed a personal fortune, secured the territory around the Great Lakes, built roads, and negotiated treaties with the Chippewa and other Indian tribes. He served as secretary of war under Andrew Jackson, who named him minister to France in 1836, and he remained in Paris until 1842, "where he befriended G.P.A. Healy :. Cass spent the remainder of his career in the Senate, where he was a leader of the Democratic Party. In 1848 he was the Democratic nominee for President, though he lost to Zachary Taylor ; in 1857 James Buchanan named him secretary of state, a position he relished. But in 1860, Cass resigned to protest Buchanan's failure to secure the Union forts in Charleston harbor. Brady photographed Cass on several occasions, including this majestic portrait, made around the time he joined Buchanan's cabinet.

The novel concerns a saintly Capuchin monk who, led into a life of depravity by a fiend-inspired woman, subsequently becomes a rapist and murderer. Charges of immorality and irreligion brought against Lewis by his critics caused a less offensive second edition to be published. Of his melodramatic plays the most famous is The Castle Spectre (1797). His ballads, notably Alonzo the Brave and the Fair Imogene, influenced Sir Walter Scott 's early poetry. See biography by L. F. Peck (1961); studies by M. Summers (1938, repr. 1964) and R. P. Reno (1980). The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia, Lewis, Lennox
