Project 1: Barbauld and the Gothic

For our project, we analyzed Barbauld's "On the Plasure Derived from Objects of Terror" and the Gothic poem "Sonnet on Being Cautioned against Walking on a Headland." To begin, we created a timeline post for the year that Barbauld published her essay. Included with the year that Barbauld published her essay, was a brief discussion on the essay and Barbauld's reasons for arguing for the pleasure we feel from hearing and reading terrifying stories.
