Band 4 der ersten deutschsprachigen Ann-Radcliffe-Gesamtausgabe.Gefangen im düsteren Schloss Udolpho kämpft die junge Waise Emily St. Aubert gegen die hinterhältigen Pläne ihres Vormunds Montoni, gegen unheimlichen Geisterspuk und ihre eigenen melancholischen Phantasien. Von ihrem Geliebten getrennt und der Außenwelt isoliert, muss sie sich der Avancen eines hartnäckigen Verehrers erwehren, während der lasterhafte Montoni nach ihrem Erbe giert und in seinem Rachedurst sogar ihr Leben bedroht. Als außerdem unerklärliche Spukerscheinungen hinzukommen, droht Emily unter dem auf ihr lastenden Druck zu zerbrechen ...The Mysteries of Udolpho war seinerzeit einer der populärsten Romane der Schauerromantik und hob durch Radcliffes faszinierende psychologische Darstellung seiner Figuren die "Gothic Romance" auf ein neues Niveau. Heute gilt der Roman als eines der wichtigsten Werke in der Geschichte der europäischen Literatur.

DEUTSCHE AUSGABEBand 6 der ersten deutschsprachigen Ann-Radcliffe-Gesamtausgabe von Maria Weber."Dieser spannende historische Kriminalroman spielt im 13. Jahrhundert zur Zeit des englischen Königs Henry III.Die Handlung beginnt mit dem feierlichen Einzug des Königs in Kenilworth, den ausgelassenen Vorbereitungen zur Hochzeit des jungen Ritters Gaston de Blondeville und eines anstehenden Ritterturniers. Doch die festliche Stimmung wird jäh von einem reisenden Kaufmann unterbrochen, der vor den König tritt und Ungeheuerliches behauptet: Sir Gaston habe ihm großes Unrecht angetan, indem dieser seine Reisegruppe überfallen und ausgeraubt, und dabei seinen Verwandten, einen Johanniterritter auf der Heimreise, ermordet habe. Der Hof ist empört über diese dreiste Anschuldigung gegen den jungen Günstling des Königs, König Henry sieht sich jedoch gezwungen, einen Prozess zu veranstalten, um die Sache aus der Welt zu schaffen. Ist der junge Ritter tatsächlich der angeklagten Verbrechen schuldig, oder treibt der fremde Kaufmann ein teuflisches Spiel? Schon bald mehren sich die Zeichen, dass eine übernatürliche Macht ihre Finger im Spiel hat - doch handelt es sich dabei wirklich um den unruhigen Geist des ermordeten Ritters, oder sind es, wie die Freunde Sir Gastons vermuten, vielmehr vom boshaften Kaufmann ausgeübte schwarzmagische Künste? Erst im Verlaufe des Turnieres kommt die Wahrheit schließlich ans Licht ..."Gaston de Blondeville ist der letzte, posthum erschienene, Roman der englischen 'Queen of Gothic Romance', Ann Radcliffe.
