Book Synopsis The Vampire in Nineteenth Century English Literature by : Carol A. Senf
Book excerpt: Comprehensive bibliography (1000+ items) is preceded by three critical essays, two by the editor and one by Devendra P. Varma, a scholar of Dracula and vampirism. A timely release considering the upsurge of interest in this field, and well done. Senf looks at why the vampire has evolved so significantly over the years and why in the 20th century it is primarily a character in popular literature while its 19th century counterpart was an important part of the literary mainstream. No index. Cloth edition, $32.95 (unseen). Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
