Essay from the year 2023 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Frankfurt (Main) (English Studies), course: The Beast Within, language: English, abstract: This essay provides an in-depth analysis of the symbols and motifs in H.P. Lovecraft's short story 'The Rats in the Walls.' It explores the themes of ancestral guilt, madness, and the horror of the unknown. The essay delves into the use of Gothic elements, the decay of aristocratic society, and the grotesque rituals practiced by the Delapore family. By examining key symbols such as the rats, the underground city, and the portrait of Delapore's ancestor, the essay highlights how Lovecraft creates a chilling atmosphere of cosmic horror and psychological terror.
