he mystic creatures — vampires, werewolves and zom- bies — that we’ve all heard of, and feared, have become T a cultural phenomenon in recent years. UCSD litera- ture professor Lisa Lampert-Weissig is no stranger to this phenomenon; she’s been studying the historical and literary representations of supernatural beings for about five years now, and she believes that there may be more to the supernatural than one might think. Lampert-Weissig explores connections to the supernatural that may not be completely obvious at first glance. Her research also examines the figure of the “out- sider” and how the supernatural is related to humans. “[When it comes to the supernatural], I’m interested in the role of the outsider,” Lampert-Weissig said. “Most of my research has been very [focused on] Anti-Semitism in early literature, racism in early literature and the outsider.” Through her research, she has discovered that the outsider is very common in the supernatural. While her true passion lies in Medievalist and Jewish studies, Lampert-Weissig has used this background to discover connections with the supernatural. In fact, since many people find the supernatural to be an interesting or unique topic, Lampert-Weissig uses it to teach students about cultures and the Medieval period through the connections she’s found between the two. These connections can be found in her work — more specifically, in a book that she’s currently writing about what she calls the “Wandering Jew.” Her book depicts a tale about a man who insults Jesus on the way to Cavalry and is then told by Jesus, “I will go, but you will remain forever.” “[The Jew then becomes] this undead kind of figure who is doomed to wait out for the second coming,” Lampert-Weissig said. In other words, the Jew has become an outsider. “[Supernatural beings are] constructed in a way that responds to people’s fears,” Lampert-Weissig said. “The word ‘monster’ comes from the [phrase] ‘to warn.’ They tell you quite a bit about a culture and what people may be worried about and concerned about and what’s hidden, lurking beneath the surface of things.” Lampert-Weissig expressed her fascination with how the supernatural is connected to our society, a notion she expands upon in a freshman seminar she’s currently teaching on zombies. The seminar gives students insight to the possible connections zombies have with society and the origins of such creatures. She will also be teaching a seminar on vampires during spring quarter. “With the collapse of the economy, zombies seem to have taken over,” Lampert-Weissig said. “Commercially, I think the economy feels so bleak right now, and so many things are breaking down that people are losing faith, and the monsters we are imagining now are zombies.” Lampert-Weissig has observed this pattern throughout other supernatural crazes as well. While zombies are prominent now, vampires were previously the obsession of the country.
