Gaudy Night (1935) is a mystery novel by Dorothy L. Sayers, the tenth featuring Lord Peter Wimsey, and the third including Harriet Vane. The dons of Harriet Vane's alma mater, the all-female Shrewsbury College, Oxford (based on Sayers' own Somerville College), have invited her back to attend the annual Gaudy celebrations. However, the mood turns sour when someone begins a series of malicious acts including poison-pen messages, obscene graffiti and wanton vandalism. Harriet asks her old friend Wimsey to investigate.

Het is het tiende en voorlaatste verhaal in haar serie van elf romans rond de aristocratische amateurdetective Lord Peter Wimsey en het derde waarin de detectiveschrijfster Harriet Vane een rol speelt. Het verhaal speelt zich af in het fictieve Shrewsbury College in Oxford, een hint naar Somerville College, waaraan Sayers studeerde. (nl)
  • Aufruhr in Oxford (Originaltitel: Gaudy Night) ist ein 1935 in Großbritannien erschienener Kriminalroman (Universitätsroman) von Dorothy L. Sayers. Die Autorin bricht mit etlichen Konventionen des Genres und erzählt hier nicht die Geschichte eines Mordes, sondern die Aufdeckung einer Serie gemeiner Streiche, die den Lehrkörper und die Studentinnen einer frühen britischen Frauenuniversität an den Rand der Verzweiflung treibt. Der Roman gilt als einer der bedeutendsten des „Goldenen Zeitalters“ der britischen Kriminalliteratur. (de)
