Abstract

This is a collection of vampire tales in English preceding Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897). It covers poetry and prose, from canonical and influential works to the unjustly overlooked and forgotten.

Vampire writing has attracted a considerable amount of critical attention, much of which focuses on Dracula and its vast legacy in film and popular culture. However, this collection of Romantic and Victorian vampire tales is not intended to be a prehistory of Dracula, and the texts included are not significant merely because of the subsequent influence they had on Stoker and his legacy. Rather, the collection presents an account of the protracted nineteenth-century fascination with vampires as a particular and particularly corporeal species of the undead.

The Introduction accordingly presents a thoroughgoing historicization and contextualization of the nineteenth-century vampire across a range of fields, and will conclude by determining the contribution of vampires and vampirology to the developing definition of the Gothic.
