About

Learn about the development of Gothic fiction by the eighteenth-century women writers who created some of our most memorable monsters and villains.

This interactive session (1.5-2 hours), is adaptable to suit different ages and stages, will give students the opportunity to delve a little deeper into an area of Chawton House’s collections or operations. Sessions require minimal preparation, and are run by an experienced member of the Chawton House team. They include a prep sheet (provided in advance where necessary), group activities and discussion, some book handling, and takeaway materials.
