Titles of Interest – ‘The Birth of the Dracula Myth: Bram Stoker’s Transylvania’

Copyright by UJMAG.roI just learned of the following volume, one difficult to find information about online. The following comes from an abstract and other online information by Marius-Mircea Crisjan.

The volume Impactul uni mit: Dracula și reprezentarea ficțională a spațiului românesc (The Impact of a Myth: Dracula and the Fictional representation of the Romanian space) is an interdisciplinary study that combines an imagological perspective with an approach based on Dracula Studies. This book continues the research presented in my previous volume, published in English: The Birth of the Dracula Myth: Bram Stoker’s Transylvania (București: Pro Universitaria, 2013). The Birth of the Dracula Myth analysed the image of Transylvania in Bram Stoker’s Dracula, drawing a parallel between the novel and the sources consulted by Stoker on Transylvania, and focusing on what Stoker read and what he wrote about this region of contemporary Romania.

Impactul uni mit: Dracula și reprezentarea ficțională a spațiului  românesc (The Impact of a Myth: Dracula and the Fictional representation of the Romanian space) discusses the complexity of the Dracula myth and its impact on the reflection of Romania in British and American literary representations. This volume also analyses some literary responses of several Romanian writers to the vampiric myth invented by Bram Stoker.
