.Characters in Gothic literature present their tales to us as “case studies,” in which they describe all the internal and external forces that have caused their situation to exist. Choose which of the following “forces” you think is MOST responsible for controlling the events in our lives, and explain why you think that one compared to all the others is the strongest factor. Choose from heredity, fate/destiny, the will of supernatural beings, society/peers, personal choice, fear, authority figures, past or present traumas, mental health issues, or love.
