| Summary: | 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) |

Germany: Vampirism, the writing cure, and realpolitik: Daniel Paul Schreber's Memoirs of my nervous illness ; Vampires in Weimar: shades of history -- Conclusion: the vampire in the Americas and beyond 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) Geschichte 1732-1933 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1918-1933 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte Vampires in literature Vampires / History Horror tales, European / History and criticism European fiction / History and criticism Vampire films / History and criticism Social change in literature Literature and society / Europe / History Vampir (DE-588)4187368-3 gnd rswk-swf Film (DE-588)4017102-4 gnd rswk-swf Weimarer Republik (DE-588)4065109-5 gnd rswk-swf Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 gnd rswk-swf Europa Deutschland (DE-588)4011882-4 gnd rswk-swf Europa (DE-588)4015701-5 gnd rswk-swf Europa (DE-588)4015701-5 g Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 s Vampir (DE-588)4187368-3 s Geschichte 1732-1933 z 1\p DE-604 Deutschland (DE-588)4011882-4 g Film (DE-588)4017102-4 s Geschichte 1918-1933 z 2\p DE-604 Weimarer Republik (DE-588)4065109-5 s 3\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe 978-1-57113-432-5 http://www.cambridge.org/core/product/identifier/9781571138170/type/BOOK Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
