GOTHS
1. When the Goths appeared in the early eighties nobody thought that
they would last, but they are still rather popular. Today you can go almost any-
where in England, even to the smallest village and find a few Goths together as a small group, very much isolated from other kids of the same age.
2. A Goth is somebody who listens to Goth music and looks Gothic. The
name Goths comes from the neo Gothic period of literature with its atmosphere of mystery and terror and stories about Dracula and Frankenstein.
3. One can tell Goths from the costume and make up. They are really in-
teresting and can look really striking with their white skin and swept back hair.
They are mixture of quite a lot of fashions. The emphasis on black is something
that is very much punk. But there was also another fashion at the time – it was
called the New Romantics – people dressed up in velvets and lace, soft and rich
fabrics. It originated from two hundred years ago.
4. But what makes them really different is their philosophy. They are in-
to mystical things and wear silver decorations, often with religious significance.
Another thing is that they have a rather negative view of life. Everyone expects
young people to be optimistic and full of life and enthusiasm, but Goths aren’t like
that. They are quite pessimistic and interested in death; they have this attitude that
everything is tragic. It seems to appeal to kids, and there are always lots in every
generation, who like to look on the dark rather than the bright side of life.
