Információk az e-könyvről
In Bram Stoker's iconic novel "Dracula," the reader is drawn into a gothic tapestry teeming with supernatural intrigue and existential dread. Stoker masterfully interweaves epistolary elements—diaries, letters, and newspaper articles—creating a multi-faceted narrative that heightens the sense of authenticity and immediacy. Set against the backdrop of Victorian England, the novel deftly explores themes of fear, desire, and the clash between modernity and antiquity, as Count Dracula invades the lives of his unsuspecting victims, challenging social norms and moral conventions of the era. Bram Stoker, an Irish author and theater manager, was heavily influenced by the folklore and superstitions of his homeland, as well as contemporary anxieties surrounding sexuality and identity during the late 19th century. His fascination with the macabre and the mystical is evident in his meticulous research and vivid characterizations, lending an air of realism to the fiction. Stoker's personal struggles and societal observations paved the way for a narrative that not only entertains but also confronts the fears of his time. "Dracula" is a must-read for anyone intrigued by the intersection of horror and literature. Its rich narrative style and profound themes offer insight into human nature and societal fears, making it a timeless classic. Whether you're a seasoned fan of gothic literature or a newcomer, Stoker's eloquent prose and gripping storytelling will undoubtedly leave a lasting impact.
A szerzőről
Bram Stoker, born Abraham Stoker on November 8, 1847, in Dublin, Ireland, is best known as the author of the quintessential gothic novel 'Dracula' (1897), which has immortalized his name in the annals of horror and vampire literature. Educated at the University of Dublin, Stoker graduated with honors in mathematics. He pursued a career in the civil service while developing a secondary career as a writer of sensational fiction, which culminated in the creation of his masterpiece. 'Dracula' is acclaimed not just for its spine-chilling tale but also for its intricate narrative structure, employing epistolary techniques that give a sense of immediacy and realism to the supernatural events described. The novel has spawned countless adaptations in film, theatre, and television, and has cast a lasting influence on the horror genre, shaping the public's perception of vampires. Stoker's writing, while prolific, never achieved financial success during his lifetime, but his posthumous fame solidifies him as a key figure in Victorian literature, with 'Dracula' often being hailed as one of the greatest horror novels ever written. Stoker died on April 20, 1912, but his legacy endures, with 'Dracula' continuing to enthral audiences and inspire writers within the gothic and horror traditions.
