Produktbeschreibung

Master's Thesis from the year 2011 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1A, Warsaw University, language: English, abstract: The goal of this research is to examine selected works of Bram Stoker (Dracula, The Jewel of Seven Stars, The Lady of the Shroud, The Lair of the White Worm) and examine the presence of elements that are both characteristic of Gothic literature, and unique in the works of Stoker. In order to investigate and present some of Stoker's lesser known works, the analysis is concentrated on the most prominent elements present in his novels, like: the negative impact of the natural environment on the mind and body, the transgression of moral and social boundaries, and the relationship between woman and evil. Prior to a close investigation, each chapter first presents the theory behind each topic, and exemplifies it by giving an overview of prominent literary works that appeared before 1900.
