ALEXANDER, Christine. " ' That Kingdom of Gloom ': Charlotte Brontë, the Annuals, and the Gothic." Nineteenth-Century Literature 47 (1993): 409-438. Traces the pronounced influence of such annuals as The Keepsake, The Gem, The Amulet, and most especially, The Literary Souvenir, and Friendship’s Offering on Charlotte Brontë’s juvenalia. “From the annuals, Brontë learned not only to imitatebut to parody the Gothic form: her early writings show that the Gothic allowed her to indulge in the exotic, the licentious, and mysterious while at the same time assuming that anti-Gothic stance that is so characteristic in her novels.”

WEIN, Toni. "Gothic Desire in Charlotte Brontë's Villette." Studies in English Literature, 1500-1900 39:4 (1999): 733-746. Considers the significance of Lewis's The Monk for Charlotte Bronte's Villette. Villette redefines sublimal desire by drawing on The Monk for its analysis of substitution's dangers and delights and attacks a practice which makes women counters in a system of barter. Brontë makes the spectral nun stand for a desire that has become disembodied and endlessly deferred.
