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.

[email protected] [my preferred method] 812-335-9868 (home) This syllabus is available in alternative formats upon request. Overview The vampire is one of the most popular and enduring images in the world, giving rise to hundreds of monster movies around the globe every year, not to mention novels, short stories, plays, TV shows, and commercial merchandise. Yet the Western vampire image that we know from the film, television, and literature of today is very different from its eastern European progenitor. Nina Auerbach has said that "every age creates the vampire that it needs." In this course we will explore the eastern European origins of the vampire, similar entities in other cultures that predate them, and how the vampire in its look, nature, vulnerabilities, and threat has changed over the centuries. This approach will provide us with the means to learn about the geography, village and urban cultures, traditional social structure, and religions of eastern Europe; the nature and manifestations of Evil and the concept of Limited Good; physical, temporal, and societal boundaries and ritual passage that accompany them; and major historical and intellectual periods (the settlement of Europe, the Age of Reason, Romanticism, Neo-classicism, the Enlightenment, the Victorian era, up to today).

  • Renfield – in the Shadow of the Vampire at the Bakehouse Theatre, 2020
    FRINGE REVIEW: RENFIELD – IN THE SHADOW OF THE VAMPIRE AT THE BAKEHOUSE THEATRE, 2020 English theatrical company Grist To The Mill Productions have a number of shows running throughout this year’s Adelaide Fringe. Renfield: In The Shadow Of The Vampire, is the newest addition to their repertoire and it had its world premiere at the Bakehouse Theatre on Thursday night. Written and performed by British actor, Ross Ericson, and directed by Michelle Yim, the play is a harrowing exploration of an individual’s descent into madness, presented through the experiences of the delusional character, Renfield, who featured in Bram Stoker’s classic gothic horror novel, Dracula. The action is set in the Carfax lunatic asylum run by Dr. John Seward as described in the original source text. Renfield, in this production, is first seen fronting a panel of medical experts and influential dignitaries, including Dr. Abraham Van Helsing and Quincy Adams, and British nobles. They are gathered together to assess whether Renfield can be considered as being cured and declared sane, so that he can subsequently be tried in court for his crimes against society. It’s a solo piece for Ericson. He plays the role of ‘narrator’, who cleverly contextualises events for the audience in extended rhyming verse, as well as assuming the part of Renfield, both in the present, as he argues his case to the panel, and in the past, as he relates his journey to self- understanding in a series of vivid flashbacks. Addressing the audience briefly after the show, Ericson suggested that the work is, to some degree, still in progress; and at times during the performance, the flow of dialogue in the frequent shifts between his character’s internal perspectives, did come across as tentative and the changes were not always clearly defined, This suggested that the writer/performer is still experimenting with the piece and is, as yet, undecided about how best to deliver the material he has written to achieve its optimal effect.

  • 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.
