Feminine “Roles” in Dracula by Bram Stoker
Feminine “Roles” in Dracula by Bram Stoker
Author(s): Elena Maria Rusu Subject(s): Gender Studies
Published by: Universitatea de Vest din Timişoara
Summary/Abstract: A polyphonic novel, Dracula can be read from a number of perspectives, bringing together a multiplicity of discursive fields - ethnography, imperialist ideologies, medicine, criminality, discourses of degeneration, physiognomy, feminism, occultism and so on. The productive nature of this novel may lie in the easy cohabitation of various discursive fields, in the fact that it seems to generate readings rather than closing them down.
