Gothic: Just what makes one a "Gothic" or "Goth" one might ask? First - the term itself needs to be defined. A history buff might know that the Goths were a group of Germanic barbarians that invaded the Roman Empire between the 3rd and 5th centuries. Lovers of art and architecture will at once recognize Gothic architecture often seen in massive stone cathedrals - marked by very tall thin arched windows with elaborate stained glass designs. The art itself is dark and morbid - revealing the macabre interests of the Medieval Europeans. A more recent definition of Gothic refers to a movement in literature in the 18th and 19th centuries. Gothic literature is noted by gloomy settings - mysterious and often violent events - and psychological terror of some sort. Society Subcultures Gothic:
