This work of gothic literature (The Monk) was written by quoting the two important elements of gothic literature, 'horror' and 'terror', through the examples in the book and the ideas of important gothic literature representatives (Ann Radcliffe etc.). And what the reader feels while reading this book and what emotions he finds himself in, this situation is discussed psychologically in the article. There is a discussion of space, which is another of the Gothic elements. What feelings does the reader find himself in when he visits these places? And in the last part this gothic of mine. I discuss my own perspective and feelings towards the elements.
