Description:Few books hae so seized the public imagination as Bram Stoker's Dracula, even more popular now than when it was first published in 2897. This critical work represents a rereading of the horror classic as a Christian text, one that alchemizes Platonism, Gnosticism, Mariology and Christian resurrection in a tale that explores the grotesque. Of particular interest is the way in which the Dracula narrative emerges from earlier vampire tales, which juxtapose Apollonain and Dionysian impulses.
