Description

This book sets the writings of Merimee, Le Fanu, Stoker and Verne in the context in which they were written – namely the response to Balkan, Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian politics. Gibson analyzes their works to reveal that the vampire acts as an allegory of the Near East through which constitutes a challenge to the ‘orientalism’ argument of today.
