Description de l'ouvrage :
The Lure of the Vampire: Gender, Fiction and Fandom from Bram Stoker to Buffy the Vampire Slayer explores the curiosity and fascination surrounding the enduring myth of Dracula and vampires. Over one hundred years after Bram Stoker's influential novel was published, an interest in vampires is still prevalent in popular culture. This is suggested by the recent popularity of such television shows as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and it's spin-off,Angel. Milly Williamson examines this phenomena and looks at the issues of gender pertaining to both vampires and their followers, the modern portrayal of vampires, the nature of identity and identification, and the fans themselves.

À propos de l'auteur :
Milly Williamson is Senior Lecturer in Mass Communications and Cultural Studies at the University of North London. She has written a number of articles on vampires and vampiricism.

Revue de Presse :
Successfully straddles the divide between high and low culture...This eclectic approach makes her study all the more comprehensive and fascinating. Sarah Artt, Scope Magazine

Insightful and interesting. Kelly O'Connor-Salomon, The Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts
