		That influence can be clearly discerned in the plays of Charles Robert Maturin, an Irish clergyman, whose three tragedies—Bertram; or, The Castle of St. Aldobrond; Manuel; and Fredolfo—were produced in London in the years 1816 and 1817.
		Maturin’s Bertram, with its gloomy “Byronic” herovillain, its strained sentiment, its setting in castle and monastery and its attempt at the portrayal of frantic passions, has all the vices of a vicious order of tragedy.
		Maturin, in later years, admitted that his acquaintance with life was so limited as to make him dependent on his imagination alone (and he might have added the imagination of other dramatists) for his characters, situations and language.

		Charles Robert Maturin was born in Dublin in 1782, and educated at Trinity College.
		Maturin's Calvinist upbringing lent to his work a strong sense of the soul's relationship with God, which can also be seen in the work of James Hogg, William Godwin and Godwin's daughter, Mary Shelley.
		Maturin's tales were, however, always more extravagant and macabre, and led to his reputation as one of the foremost writers of the Gothic school.

	Papers on Language and Literature: "Servility and command": Authorship in Melmoth the Wanderer
		Maturin was not always as unwilling to write as these prefatory remarks suggest; on the contrary, he eagerly undertook literary work early in life, and enjoyed the minor successes he achieved writing for the stage.
		Maturin's "malignance" may thus be attributed to his ambivalence about authorship, ambivalence born of his desire for both money and social respectability, and of his knowledge that audiences of his day were not likely to bestow both upon clergymen who wrote Gothic romance.
		When Maturin turned to writing for money, as he indicates he did in his prefatory comments to Melmoth the Wanderer, he suggested that authorship was his last avenue for raising the funds that his family so desperately needed.

		That exception, however, Charles Robert Maturin, for the sake of at least one thing that he did, and perhaps, of a certain quality or power diffused through his other work, deserves to rank far above Lewis, and not a little above Mrs.
		In technical originality, indeed, he must give way, certainly to her, and, in a fashion, also, to Lewis; while he probably owes something to Beckford, to whose master-scene, at the close of Vathek, even his best things are very inferior.
		Maturin followed Bertram with two failures in play form, and Melmoth with a doubtfully successful novel The Albigenses, in 1824, the year of his death.

	The Literary Gothic \| Charles Maturin
		Personally, I'd vote for Harrison Ainsworth's Rookwood; Melmoth may be less the last of its kind that one of the first of a new kind, or at least a transitional work that marks the evolution away from conventional Gothic and its reliance on external atmospherics to a more psychological Gothic.
		We're still a long way from "The Turn of the Screw," to be sure, for Maturin does not forsake mouldering ruins, subterranean spaces, depraved villains, skeleton monks and the like, but his powerful interest in the psychology of suffering and alienation makes this something much more sophisticated than most early Gothics.
		Maturin's only known short story, this is a Halloween treat featuring a variation on that old ballad standby, the spectre bridegroom, and may well have influenced Joseph Sheridan LeFanu's "Schalken the Painter."

		Believes that this late Gothic novel is in the line of Godwinian doctrinaire fiction, althought "to attack Catholicism was not for Maturin, as it was for Lewis in his prurient Gothic novel
		(1796), an antiquarian fancy-dress frolic." To the detriment of the novel's effectiveness, "Maturin has overloaded the character [of the wanderer] with several functions working at cross-purposes." Parts company with the normal view of the novel as the greatest of the Gothics to expose its mediocrities and structural flaws.
		Adds new material to the tormented publishing history of this work and sheds light on the ambiguous and shifting moral and political interpretations given by both Maturin and his audience to one of the most famous Gothic dramas.

		In that regard, it is something like Charles Dickens's portrayal of good Jewish characters in Our Mutual Friend (1865) to counteract charges of antisemitism brought against his portrayal of Fagin in Oliver Twist (1838).
		Davison could, perhaps, have done more with this and various other fictional attempts to portray Jews and Judaism in a positive light, including Disraeli's novels and Eliot's Deronda, but her subject is, after all, antisemitism as it particularly informs and shapes Gothic romances.
		The Wandering Jew in the German Schauerroman, in Matthew Gregory Lewis's The Monk (1795), and in Charles Maturin's Melmoth the Wanderer (1820) forms the backdrop to Davison's analysis of "Vampire Empire" at the end of the century, particular in Dracula.
