Thesis (M.A.)--University of Louisville, 2007.

This thesis proposes the origin and development of a distinct visual language of horror in the late nineteenth century as evidenced in the graphics of the French theater of horror, the Grand Guignol. After outlining the formation and evolution of the theater in Chapter One, Chapter Two discusses its rarified horror in terms of spatiality and dramaturgy. Chapter Three traces the development of the Grand Guignol graphics into a unique visual language of horror, first by identifying aesthetic influences, then analyzing how and to what effect those influences were transformed in the graphics. Chapter Four integrates the graphics' expressivity with that of the theater and examines how both modalities interface with the category of the grotesque. It then considers the corresponding concept of the sublime in its relationship to Grand Guignol horror.
