具体描述
'The Monk was so highly popular that it seemed to create an epoch in our literature', wrote Sir Walter Scott. Set in the sinister monastery of the Capuchins in Madrid, The Monk is a violent tale of ambition, murder, and incest. The great struggle between maintaining monastic vows and fulfilling personal ambitions leads its main character, the monk Ambrosio, to temptation and the breaking of his vows, then to sexual obsession and rape, and finally to murder in order to conceal his guilt. Inspired by German horror romanticism and the work of Ann Radcliffe, Lewis produced his masterpiece at the age of nineteen. It contains many typical Gothic elements - seduction in a monastery, lustful monks, evil Abbesses, bandits and beautiful heroines. But, as the Introduction to this new edition shows, Lewis also played with convention, ranging from gruesome realism to social comedy, and even parodied the genre in which he was writing. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

读后感
当时我还是个深受大学政治公共课折磨的无聊人，某个午后去图书馆准备接下来的政治课娱乐，逛了一圈决定还是小说吧，下课刚好看完。 居然就被我瞄到某个角落里的这本书，简介比豆瓣上的详细，对我来说就像夏日惊雷，情节也太夸张太彪悍了（我还没有哥特小说的概念）。...
评分出于对哥特式文学早先时期作品的好奇 我打开了这本富有“浮士德”意味的书… 是一本讲德高望重的修道院院长逐渐堕落的故事 作者19岁时写下了它 文法略显稚嫩 情节也有些无（ě）语（xīn）不能登上文学之大雅之堂 仅可作为消遣读物来阅读 但不得不说 这部作品为后世的哥特风格...
评分有了信仰就失去了人性的自由，就像许多宗教都要求克服人性的阴暗，比如禁欲要求行善，但这些与人类的天性相互矛盾，很少人能够彻底摆脱恶行，一旦你所信奉的宗教信仰认为你所不能克服的贪欲是恶行，那么必然召来你所认为的不幸，而这种天性即使不幸降临也无法彻底使人们摆脱欲...
评分道貌岸然的衣冠禽兽，这本书的亮点在于毫不掩饰男性的某些劣根性，在得到安东尼娅之前的向往，爱慕，不择手段，不惜遁入魔道，万劫不复，而这一切都在众人瞩目的道袍之下，耐人寻味。 本来是冲着哥特文学去看的，里面关于诅咒，鬼魂，女巫的元素还是不错，但是结尾特别仓促，人...

无甚吐槽点
评分格调低 像童话 又没有教育意义 语言勉强能看
评分现在看来这本起码可读性强多了，尽管书中情节如今都被用烂了，但在当时应该还好
评分两条情节线脱离稍严重，人物过多有点让人混乱。不过语言流畅自然，一口气读下去不带喘，还算过瘾啦。
