ゴシック小説
Montague Summers also produced important studies of the Gothic fiction genre. He edited three collections of Gothic horror short stories, as well as an incomplete edition of two of the seven obscure Gothic novels, known as the Northanger Horrid Novels, that Jane Austen mentioned in her Gothic parody novel "Northanger Abbey". He was instrumental in rediscovering those lost works, which some had supposed were inventions of Jane Austen herself. He also published biographies of Austen and Ann Radcliffe, a writer of Gothic fiction.
