BALDICK, Chris. "Introduction" to Melmoth the Wanderer, Ed. Douglas Grant. New York: Oxford UP, 1998: vii-xix. 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 The Monk (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.

________. "Charles Robert Maturin, Melmoth the Wanderer." In Le Roman noir anglais dit "gothique", Ed. Max Duperray. Paris: Ellipses, 2000: 145-154. Connects Maturin's sense of Gothic with such modern existential writers as Samuel Beckett, Jean Paul Sartre, and Abert Camus, whose novel L'Étranger [The Stranger] resembles Melmoth the Wanderer. " The Wanderer "est ainsi le prototype du rebelle moderne, souvent pathétique dont Beckett (Murphy, 1938), Sartre (La Nausée, 1938), ou encore Camus (L'Étranger, 1942) fixeront l'image dérisoire." [is also the prototype of the modern rebel, whose often pathetic image will yet be mockingly fixed on Beckett's Murphy, Sartre's Nausea, and Camus's The Stranger].

JONES, Linda B. " ' The Terrors of a Guilty Sleep ' : Freud's Wolf Man and Dreams of Castration in Melmoth the Wanderer." Gothic Studies 2:1 (2000): 50-60. Analyzes several of the dreams in the novel through the psychoanalytic lens of one of Freud's most famous case studies, the Wolf Man, "From the History of an Infantile Neurosis." The theme of the fear of the father, "express[es] a conflict of castration anxieties which underpins the uncanny sense of loss permeating the text." Argues that castration anxieties structures the novel's meaning--fear of loss/obedience to the father-- and "shifts the focus of Maturin's religious scheme."

PUNTER, David. "Ceremonial Gothic" In Spectral Readings: Towards a Gothic Geography, Eds. Glennis BYRON, David PUNTER. New York: St. Martin's Press, 1999: 37-53. Offers Lacanian readings of Maturin's Melmoth the Wanderer, William Gibson's Neuromancer, and other works. Instead of focusing on the Gothic's moments of transgression, tests the hypothesis by seeing the Gothic through its moments of stabilization. "This logic would focus on the curious, essential co-necessity of parasite and host, and therefore on the moment at which we can no longer clearly see what is the bearer and what is being borne."

Discusses the interrelationship of "two Huguenot Protestant writers both with family connections in the Irish church, both curiously learned, self-conscious writers, absorbed by their Calvinist heritage, and its relation to aesthetics, psychology, and politics, and both with an irresistible attraction to effects of terror and horror." Also discusses and accounts for the change in Maturin's Gothicism after he began to correspond with Sir Walter Scott.
