[gothicseverance]

“Live burial” is the name of a conventual punishment that is popular in Gothic novels, but it is also, as phenomenological criticism can make clear, a more general description of the novels’ physical ambience. The psychoanalytic application of “live burial” to the repression of the libido is inevitable in these particular tales, especially since it is sexual activity that literal live burial most often punishes.
