Abstract:Known as “Queen of Canadian Literature”, Margaret Atwood is one of the most talented female writers in Canada. Her works are featured with intertextuality. Moreover, she is good at applying parody to her works. Parody is a writing skill. During the time of writing, a writer creates a new work by way of the ironic imitation of the source text to show respect, tease or to attack the source text or criticize the society. On the basis of previous researches, the thesis is going to make a detailed analysis of parody used in Lady Oracle exploring how the author makes a parody of traditional Gothic elements to highlight the theme of the novel.

This thesis is made up of four chapters. Chapter one is an introduction to Margaret Atwood, Lady Oracle and literature review. Chapter two focuses on the definition, development and features of parody. Chapter three analyses the Gothic elements in Lady Oracle, and how does the author parody the elements deftly. Chapter four makes a conclusion of this thesis.
