Synopsis "Dracula (in Spanish)"

Jonathan Harker viaja a Transilvania para cerrar un negocio inmobiliario con un misterioso conde que acaba de comprar varias propiedades en Londres; al llegar, en el Paso de Borgo un siniestro carruaje lo recoge para llevarlo, acunado por e l canto de los lobos, a un castillo en ruinas. Tal es el inquietante principio de una novela magistral que alumbra uno de los personajes ms populares y poderosos de todos los tiempo s, pues si hay un mito literario que haya cobrado vida propi a, sin duda es el del conde Drácula, el arquetipo mismo del vampiro. Publicada en 1897, y recibida como perteneciente al género gótico, sus repercusiones han desbordado con creces el ámbito cerrado del género. As, esta novela sorprende por su solidez y arquitectura: la ausencia del erudito narrador decimonico, sustituido por el género epistolar, y la acumulación de materiales de primera mano confieren al relato una modernidad narrativa insólita en este tipo de obras, al mismo tiempo que la lenta progresión en el desvelamiento del misterio crea una atmosfera de suspense pocas veces igualada. Claramente, Bram Stoker (1847-1912) supo sintetizar en Drácula varias de las ms profundas pulsiones del ser humano .la vida, la muer te, la sexualidad. en sus ms diversas y ambiguas manifestaciones .el bien y el mal, la luz y las tinieblas, la entrega n o deseada pero irresistible., para alumbrar este relato fascinante que es ya un clásico indiscutible de la literatura de terror.

Abraham "Bram" Stoker (Clontarf; November 8, 1847-London; April 20, 1912) was an Irish novelist and writer, known for his novel Dracula

His early horror stories, such as "The Crystal Cup" (1872), were published by the London Society, and The Chain of Destiny in the Shamrock magazine. In 1876, while working as a civil servant, he wrote a textbook named The Duties of Clerks of Petty Sessions in Ireland (1879), this book was used as a reference for a long time

Being a theater critic for the Dublin Evening Mail, co-owned by the famous Gothic novelist Sheridan Le Fanu, one of the most important of his time for stories like Carmilla, about a vampire, greatly influenced Stoker when writing Dracula. Stoker's critique of the play was high praise for the performance in Hamlet by actor Henry Irving, who hired him to be his personal secretary and manager of the Lyceum Theatre in London

While working for Irving, he was a literary critic for the Daily Telegraph and wrote several novels like The Snake's Pass (1890) and Dracula (1897) and, after Irving's death in 1905, The Lady of the Shroud (1909) and The Lair of the White Worm (1911)

His wife was the administrator of his literary estate, and she made known works such as what would be the introduction to Dracula, the short story Dracula's Guest

Es la edición "Viva Leer Copec" muy completa y de gran calidad. Aunque la portada no es de mis favoritas está bien para la colección.
