The Monk is the most sensational of Gothic novels. The main plot
concerns Ambrosio, an abbot of irreproachable holiness, who is
seduced by a woman (or perhaps a demon) disguised as a novice, and
who goes on to sell his soul to the Devil. An extravagant blend of
sex, death, politics, Satanism, and poetry, the work greatly
appealed to the Marquis de Sade. The Broadview edition includes a
critical introduction and appendices of historical materials that
address the novel's literary sources (in English, German, and Greek
literature), historical contexts (the French Revolution, slavery
and abolition debates, sexuality), critical reception, and
influence.
