DRAKULA – DRACULA

Brem Stoker, irski pisac, tvorac je Drakule, romana strave i užasa objavljenog 1897, koga su proslavile filmske i pozorišne verzije.

Stoker je detinjstvo proveo bolujući, u postelji, pa ga je majka zabavljala pričama o duhovima.

Stoker je u Drakuli dao originalnu interpretaciju legende o vampirima jer je, iako je bio inspirisan narodnim pričama i drugim književnim ostvarenjima, svom junaku dao neodoljivu privlačnost i tako spojio strah od smrti sa žudnjom za besmrtnošću i ljubavi.


Bram Stoker, an Irish writer, is the creator of the horror novel Dracula, published in 1897 and whose version for stage and screen have made it a classic.

Stoker spent his chilhood sick in bed and his mother entertained him with ghost stories.

He produced an original interpretation of the legend of the vampire Dracula, as although he was inspired by folklore and other literary works, he gave his character an irresistible attraction, thus combining the fear of death with the thirst for immortality and love.
