Viac o knihe

Exploring the origins of vampires in English literature, this collection reveals their surprising roots in Greece rather than the expected Transylvania. It features seminal works like Lord Byron's "Fragment of a Novel" and John William Polidori's "The Vampyre," alongside five rare 19th-century tales, including the overlooked "The Vampire of Vourla." A scholarly introduction by Prof. Marín contextualizes these texts within the Romantic era, shedding light on 19th-century English perceptions of Greece and the evolution of vampire mythology.
