Matthew Gregory Lewis (1775-1818), English novelist, playwright, and poet, born in London, and educated at the University of Oxford. He was nicknamed “Monk” Lewis from his novel The Monk (1796), which is filled with gruesome and supernatural incidents and is a famous example of the Gothic romance. Lewis wrote the musical drama The Castle Spectre (1798), the collection of poetry Tales of Terror (1799), and the ballad Alonzo the Brave and the Fair Imogen, which influenced the poetry of Sir Walter Scott.
