Court roman qui parodie avec légèreté mais doigté le genre gothique. L'ambiance est sombre, le vampire est diabolique et notre héroïne traverse maintes contrées et maintes aventures pour sauver des amis. Comme un roman merveilleusement tordu, à la gloire du grotesque et de la fantasy qui offre au passage un clin d'œil à Ann Radcliffe et ses Mystères d'Udolphe. Format professionnel © Ink Book édition.

Excerpt from The House of the Vampire The freakish little leader of the orches tra, newly imported from Sicily to New York, tossed his conductor's wand excitedly through the air, drowning With musical thunders the hum of conversation and the clatter of plates. Yet neither his apish demeanour nor the deafening noises that responded to every movement of his agile body detracted atten tion from the figure of Reginald Clarke and the young man at his side as they smilingly wound their way to the exit.

This two-volume set offers comprehensive coverage of horror literature that spans its deep history, dominant themes, significant works, and major authors, such as Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe, and Anne Rice, as well as lesser-known horror writers. Many of today's horror story fans—who appreciate horror through movies, television, video games, graphic novels, and other forms—probably don't realize that horror literature is not only one of the most popular types of literature but one of the oldest. People have always been mesmerized by stories that speak to their deepest fears. Horror Literature through History shows 21st-century horror fans the literary sources of their favorite entertainment and the rich intrinsic value of horror literature in its own right. Through profiles of major authors, critical analyses of important works, and overview essays focused on horror during particular periods as well as on related issues such as religion, apocalypticism, social criticism, and gender, readers will discover the fascinating early roots and evolution of horror writings as well as the reciprocal influence of horror literature and horror cinema. This unique two-volume reference set provides wide coverage that is current and compelling to modern readers—who are of course also eager consumers of entertainment. In the first section, overview essays on horror during different historical periods situate works of horror literature within the social, cultural, historical, and intellectual currents of their respective eras, creating a seamless narrative of the genre's evolution from ancient times to the present. The second section demonstrates how otherwise unrelated works of horror have influenced each other, how horror subgenres have evolved, and how a broad range of topics within horror—such as ghosts, vampires, religion, and gender roles—have been handled across time. The set also provides alphabetically arranged reference entries on authors, works, and specialized topics that enable readers to zero in on information and concepts presented in the other sections.

For the last three hundred years, fictions of the vampire have fed off anxieties about cultural continuity. Though commonly represented as a parasitic aggressor from without, the vampire is in fact a native of Europe, and its "metamorphoses," to quote Baudelaire, a distorted image of social transformation. Because the vampire grows strong whenever and wherever traditions weaken, its representations have multiplied with every political, economic, and technological revolution from the eighteenth century on. Today, in the age of globalization, vampire fictions are more virulent than ever, and the monster enjoys hunting grounds as vast as the international market. Metamorphoses of the Vampire explains why representations of vampirism began in the eighteenth century, flourished in the nineteenth, and came to eclipse nearly all other forms of monstrosity in the early twentieth century. Many of the works by French and German authors discussed here have never been presented to students and scholars in the English-speaking world. While there are many excellent studies that examine Victorian vampires, the undead in cinema, contemporary vampire fictions, and the vampire in folklore, until now no work has attempted to account for the unifying logic that underlies the vampire's many and often apparently contradictory forms. Erik Butler holds a PhD from Yale University and has taught at Emory University and Swarthmore College. His publications include The Bellum Gramaticale and the Rise of European Literature (2010) and a translation with commentary of Regrowth (Vidervuks) by the Soviet Jewish author Der Nister (2011).

Initialement thèse de Doctorat, le Vampirisme au fil des siècles est devenu un ouvrage critique explorant le mythe du vampire avec sérieux mais aussi décontraction afin de le faire redécouvrir sous un jour nouveau à un large public composé tant de connaisseurs que des curieux qui s'y pencheraient pour la première fois. Le voyage commence par l'évolution de la figure vampirique dans l'histoire des croyances et le folklore de tous pays, de manière fouillée et non dénuée d'humour, pour laisser ensuite place à des interprétations et des explorations inédites d'ouvrages incontournables de la littérature fantastique et vampirique tels Dracula de Bram Stocker ou Lestat de Le Vampire d'Anne Rice, mais aussi de nombreux autres textes souvent évoqués mais rarement disséqués. On y verra aussi comment le vampire trouve un écho, et même un miroir, à travers des œuvres parodiques, gothiques ou décadentes : La Ville Vampire de Paul Féval, Le Mystère d'Udolphe d'Ann Radcliffe, Le Portrait de Dorian Gray d'Oscar Wilde et A rebours de Huysmans qui prennent ici une saveur toute nouvelle et revivent sous les analyses de l'auteur. Le cinéma est abordé à travers les films les plus marquants du genre, qui parle de l'intérêt d'une vision en parallèle des romans et de leurs avatars à l'écran. la peinture et le dessin, les lectures sociologiques et les médias contemporains, comme la publicité et la télévision, font l'objet de la dernière partie de l'ouvrage. Le tout est accompagné de portrait de vampires célèbres réalisés par l'auteur, ainsi que de photographies prises au cours de certains de ses voyages.
