DRÁCULA AND THE LITERARY CRITERIA SPECIALIZED IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE (1972-2017)

2018

The present article strives to analyse, in a necessarily synthetic way, the main interpretive currents that have led to the study of Dracula, the novel published by Bram Stoker in 1897. The objective is to better capture what academic interests this novel has generated and how it has gone from being considered a mediocre product to becoming a classic of contemporary literature. Beginning in the seventies, I will expose the evolution of the critique and its most important contributions, focusing on those works that have represented a turning point in the studies on the novel. I hope to complete a broad enough overview of the evolution and state of research around Dracula.

Hypnosis, Animal Magnetism, and Monstrosity in late Nineteenth Century English Literature

2019

We will explore the literary image of animal magnetism and hypnosis through the analysis of two works of fiction: the novels Richard Marsh’s The Beetle: A Mystery (1897) and Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897). During all the 19th century and mainly at its last, many authors used animal magnetism and hypnosis in their fictional creations in an environmental or plot way, so much that Arthur Quiller-Couch, an important literary critic of the nineteenth century, spoke about the emergence of a new literary subgenre that he called “hypnotic fiction”. Starting from the idea that in this mesmeric and hypnotic fiction literature you can clearly trace differentiated stereotypes of magnetizers and hypnotist…

"A century of vampiric lust" : representation of women and power in Bram Stoker's Dracula (1897) and Francis Ford Coppola's film adaptation (1992)

2015

Bram Stokerin vuonna 1897 julkaistua Draculaa pidetään nykyään yhtenä kirjallisuuden klassikkoteoksena, ja sen sisältämää symbolismia sekä viktoriaanisen aikakauden kuvausta on analysoitu kirjallisuudentutkimuksen piirissä toistuvasti. On kuitenkin huomattava, että Draculasta on tehty lukemattomia filmatisointeja, jotka kaikki välittävät uudenlaisia representaatioita ja muovaavat alkuperäistä myyttiä. Näitä elokuva-adaptaatioita on tutkittu huomattavasti vähemmän kuin Stokerin alkuperäistä teosta. Tämä tutkimus käyttää lähteenään sekä alkuperäistä Bram Stokerin romaania että Francis Ford Coppolan ohjaamaa filmatisointia (1992), ja se pyrkii tutkimaan eroja representaatioissa näiden kahden t…
