Abstract	"The publication of The Romance of the Forest in 1791 had a significant impact on the career of Ann Radcliffe and on the rise of what would be known as the gothic novel. The novel was widely praised immediately upon its appearance, and it often became a measure of quality against which all her future novels were measured. Her reputation grew with the publication of each succeeding novel and she was called the "Shakspeare [sic] of Romance writers," and "the first poetess of romantic fiction." Along with the praise coming from critics in the major monthly reviews, The Romance of the Forest found an enthusiastic general audience and opened the new genre of Gothic Romance to a wider range of readers. Adeline, the protagonist of The Romance of the Forest, exhibited a wide range of passions, from the feelings of suspense and terror of the sublime to the refined taste of an individual with exquisite sensibilities. Moving rapidly through the forests and gothic ruins of France, pursued by villain de Montfort, and perpetually threatened by what appear to be supernatural events, she became a model for the female gothic heroine in a host of future gothic novels."-- Provided by publisher.
