Bram Stoker’s “Dracula” and the Fin de Siècle

This course will unfortunately not be running on the date advertised.  It is being postponed to a later date, which will be confirmed in due course.

Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel Dracula provides a fascinating look at late nineteenth-century concerns. This is a novel about so much more than vampires dealing with race, empire, the new woman, sexuality, religion, science and medicine.

Dracula is a fascinating novel that has been done a disservice by the many poor tv and film adaptations over the years

This study day will explore its many themes and consider how the novel speaks to the fears and anxieties of the fin de siècle.
