Résumé
When it was published in 1897, Dracula became one of the many contemporary titles that pitted humans against monsters. Robert Louis Stevenson, Rudyard Kipling, and H. G. Wells, among others, all published in the same genre at about the same time. Yet it is Dracula that readers cannot forget. The text of this Norton Cridcal Edition is that of the 1897 first edition; it is fully annotated. A rich selection of background and source materials is provided in three areas.
"Contexts" includes probable inspirations for Dracula in the earlier works of James Malcolm Rymer and Emily Cerard. Also included are a discussion of Stoker's working notes for the novel and "Dracula's Guest," the original opening chapter to Dracula. "Reviews and Reactions" reprints five early reviews of the novel. "Dramatic and Film Variations" focuses on theater and film adaptations of Dracula, two indications of the novel's unwavering appeal.
David J. Skal, Gregory A. Waller, and Nina Auerbach offer their varied perspectives. Checklists of both dramatic and film adaptations are included.
