    Arak and Gwydion (Some Thoughts on the Shadow Elves' History) By R. Sweeney Gwydion isn't a 'real' demon, but rather a creature of great power from the plane of shadow. Gwydion's evil was his enslavement of the ShadowElves. His torment is his betrayal by Arak. Unlike Vecna, he was not on the prime and could only be 'trapped' because he was trying to follow the Shadow Elves into RL. (Presumably to kill them or re-enslave them). I wonder what Arak was thinking, however. Would there be anyplace he could take the Shadow elves into exile where Gwydion could not follow? Did he think he could hide from such a powerful creature? Gwydion must have had an enemy. A sibling perhaps. The Shadow Elves must have acted as some sort of armed forces for him. Arak must have believed that if Gwydion suddenly found himself without his Slaves, he would have been destroyed by his rivals. However, there other.. less satisfying, perhaps, ways of re-writing ShadowElf history. Gwydion, the shadow-being, falls 'in love' with an elf from some other world. They mate, bear children. Woman dies, Gwydion takes his children and their children as slaves. Millenia pass. Arak was Gwydion's favorite. Perhaps, Gwydion had mated with one of the Shadow elves of unsurpassed beauty and begat Arak. Thus, he set his son above all the other slaves. Arak, however, desired more than to be the head of the slaves. He managed to betray his father to his enemies. Arak had intended patricide. He was going to take away Gwydion's protective armed forces, leaving him vulnerable to attack by his other enemies.

  • The Evolution of the Vampire Figure in English and American Literature As Social and Economic Symbol of Contemporary Western Masculine Identity”
    DOCTORAL THESIS 2015 “The Evolution of the Vampire Figure in English and American Literature as Social and Economic Symbol of Contemporary Western Masculine Identity” Kristian Pérez Zurutuza English Philology Graduate UNED Department of Foreign Philologies and their Linguistics Philology Faculty Thesis Director: Dr. Antonio Andrés Ballesteros González Department of Foreign Philologies and their Linguistics Philology Faculty “The Evolution of the Vampire Figure in English and American Literature as Social and Economic Symbol of Contemporary Western Masculine Identity” Kristian Pérez Zurutuza English Philology Graduate Thesis Director: Dr. Antonio Andrés Ballesteros González Acknowledgements I would like to express my deepest gratitude and respect, first and foremost, to my thesis director, Dr. Antonio Andrés Ballesteros, whose careful and wise guidance, counselling, and patience have shown me the necessary tools when tackling such research endeavour. Alongside his academical guidance, his passion must be addressed regarding vampires as creatures of the human mind with literary and/or anthopological significance, for that is what the ultimate target of this research thesis is, beyond its academical value and significance; to give account of a myth rooted deep in the human soul. Without any of the mentioned here would this thesis be the same. Equal gratefulness is deserved by my friend beyond appreciation, Dr. Rodrigo Carcedo, whose guidance was paramount when addressing whatever aspect regarding vampire psychology. Besides a great psychologist and scholar, he bears a especial place in my heart. True example of friendship. My deepest gratefulness to Itziar Mujika as well, amazing and challenging student of mine, true friend, and superb journalist and researcher into women’s role in peaceful resolutions of war conflicts.

Despite its gothic trappings and origin in sensationalist fiction, Bram Stoker's Dracula, written in 1897, is a novel that looks forward. At the turn of the nineteenth century, Britons found themselves in a world of new possibilities and new perils –in a society rapidly advancing through imperialist explorations and scientific discoveries while attempting to cling to traditional institutions, men and woman struggled to make sense of the new cultural order. The genre of invasion literature, speaking to the fear of Victorian society becoming tainted by the influence of some creeping foreign Other, proliferated at the turn of the century, and Stoker's threatening depictions of the Transylvanian Count Dracula resonated with his readers. Stoker’s text has continued to resonate with readers, as further social and scientific developments in our modern world allow more and more opportunities to read allegories into the text.

  • Bram Stoker's Dracula
    Danièle André, Coppola’s Luminous Shadows: Bram Stoker’s Dracula Film Journal / 5 / Screening the Supernatural / 2019 / pp. 62-74 Coppola’s Luminous Shadows: Bram Stoker’s Dracula Danièle André University of La Rochelle, France Dracula, that master of masks, can be read as the counterpart to the Victorian society that judges people by appearances. They both belong to the realm of shadows in so far as what they show is but deception, a shadow that seems to be the reality but that is in fact cast on a wall, a modern version of Plato’s Allegory of the Cave. Dracula rules over the world of representation, be it one of images or tales; he can only live if people believe in him and if light is not thrown on the illusion he has created. Victorian society is trickier: it is the kingdom of light, for it is the time when electric light was invented, a technological era in which appearances are not circumscribed by darkness but are masters of the day. It is precisely when the light is on that shadows can be cast and illusions can appear. Dracula’s ability to change appearances and play with artificiality (electric light and moving images) enhances the illusions created by his contemporaries in the late 19th Century. Through the supernatural atmosphere of his 1992 film Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Francis Ford Coppola thus underlines the deep links between cinema and a society dominated by both science and illusion. And because cinema is both a diegetic and extra-diegetic actor, the 62 Danièle André, Coppola’s Luminous Shadows: Bram Stoker’s Dracula Film Journal / 5 / Screening the Supernatural / 2019 / pp.

  • Powers of Darkness Aquisition Release 4.8.16
    THE OVERLOOK PRESS PETER MAYER PUBLISHERS, INC 141 Wooster Street NYC 10012 212-673-221 www.overlookpress.com Lost Icelandic version of Bram Stoker’s DRACULA to be published by Overlook, in authorized, annotated edition FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NEW YORK—APRIL 8, 2016 The Overlook Press has acquired world English language rights to POWERS OF DARKNESS: THE LOST VERSION OF DRACULA from Allison Devereux at Wolf Literary Services. This major literary rediscovery by noted Dracula scholar Hans de Roos is a thrilling and essential new addition to the Dracula canon. Overlook will publish POWERS OF DARKNESS in North America in September 2016, and its sister company Duckworth will publish in the UK, also in Autumn 2016. The book features the original preface by Bram Stoker himself as well as a new foreword by Stoker’s great-grand-nephew, Dacre Stoker, and an afterword by John Edgar Browning. In 1901 Icelandic publisher and writer Valdimar Ásmundsson set out to translate Bram Stoker’s classic novel. Called Makt Myrkranna, this version was unnoticed outside the country until 1986 when Dracula scholar Richard Dalby astonishingly discovered Stoker’s original preface to the book. It was not until 2014, however, that Hans de Roos realized that Ásmundsson hadn’t merely translated Dracula but—apparently with Stoker’s blessing—had rather published an entirely new version of the story, with all-new characters and a totally re-worked plot. The resulting narrative is one that is shorter, punchier, more erotic, and perhaps even more suspenseful than the original. POWERS OF DARKNESS is, incredibly, the first time Makt Myrkranna has ever been translated, studied, or read outside of Iceland.

    WAS THE PREFACE TO THE SWEDISH DRACULA VERSION WRITTEN BY A PRIEST? BERNHARD WADSTRÖM AND THE “WHITE LADY” by Hans Corneel de Roos, MA Email: [email protected] Dedicated to Richie, Jane and Jiven, who shared the excitement of this strange discovery with me. Note: References to the Swedish text of the Dagen variant of Mörkrets makter are given in [square brackets], indicating the page numbers as given in the newspaper serialization. For the section describing Harker’s adventures in Transylvania (up to the middle of page 196), the Dagen and the Aftonbladets Halfvecko- upplaga variants have the same text and identical page numbers; in fact, these serializations must have been printed from the same matrices. The Tip-Top republication of 1916-1918 was typeset in a different format, without continuous page numbers. Note: The Icelandic text of Makt myrkranna and the Swedish text of the variants of Mörkrets makter are in the public domain; my translations of these texts and my comments are protected by international copyright laws.
