themselves just as dark beings and which were the elements that influenced
this process qualified by them as a self-discovery.

3. alternative music, 4. obscure thought.

Los jóvenes góticos incipientes
miselas muertas o agonizantes lo expone a sospechas de necrofilia),
sino ese impulso primitivo del corazón humano que conduce a la
transgresión, no sólo en contra de otros, sino en contra de uno mis-
mo. Pariente cercano de la locura, Poe la describió como un anhelo
insoldable del alma de irritarse a sí misma, de ofrecer violencia a su
propia naturaleza, de hacer el mal simplemente porque sí. La explo-
ración de este impulso masoquista, ese impulso de lo perverso que
tanto preocupaba a Poe, ha sido un tema preeminente del arte gótico
desde aquel momento (Baddeley, 2007:61).
