Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • With Pandora, Anne Rice began a magnificent new series of vampire novels. Now, in the second of her New Tales of the Vampires, she tells the mesmerizing story of Vittorio, a vampire in the Italian Age of Gold. Educated in the Florence of Cosimo de' Medici, trained in knighthood at his father's mountaintop castle, Vittorio inhabits a world of courtly splendor and country pleasures--a world suddenly threatened when his entire family is confronted by an unholy power. In the midst of this upheaval, Vittorio is seduced by the vampire Ursula, the most beautiful of his supernatural enemies. As he sets out in pursuit of vengeance, entering the nightmarish Court of the Ruby Grail, increasingly more enchanted (and confused) by his love for the mysterious Ursula, he finds himself facing demonic adversaries, war and political intrigue. Against a backdrop of the wonders--both sacred and profane--and the beauty and ferocity of Renaissance Italy, Anne Rice creates a passionate and tragic legend of doomed young love and lost innocence.

Book Synopsis Spanish Vampire Fiction since 1900 by : Abigail Lee Six
Download or read book Spanish Vampire Fiction since 1900 written by Abigail Lee Six and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-02-18 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish Vampire Fiction since 1900: Blood Relations, as that subtitle suggests, makes the case for considering Spanish vampire fiction an index of the complex relationship between intercultural phenomena and the specifics of a time, place, and author. Supernatural beings that drink blood are found in folklore worldwide, Spain included, and writers ranging from the most canonical to the most marginal have written vampire stories, Spanish ones included too. When they do, they choose between various strategies of characterization or blend different ones together. How much will they draw on conventions of the transnational corpus? Are their vampires to be local or foreign; alluring or repulsive; pitiable or pure evil, for instance? Decisions like these determine the messages texts carry and, when made by Spanish authors, may reveal aspects of their culture with striking candidness, perhaps because the fantasy premise seems to give the false sense of security that this is harmless escapism and, since metaphorical meaning is implicit, it is open to argument and, if necessary, denial. Part I gives a chronological text-by-text appreciation of all the texts included in this volume, many of them little known even to Hispanists and few if any to non-Spanish Gothic scholars. It also provides a plot summary and brief background on the author of each. These entries are free-standing and designed to be consulted for reference or read together to give a sense of the evolution of the paradigm since 1900. Part II considers the corpus comparatively, first with regard to its relationship to folklore and religion and then contagion and transmission. Spanish Vampire Fiction since 1900: Blood Relations will be of interest to Anglophone Gothic scholars who want to develop their knowledge of the Spanish dimension of the mode and to Hispanists who want to look at some canonical texts and authors from a new perspective but also gain an awareness of some interesting and decidedly non-canonical material.

Book excerpt: ¿Tienes algo para mí? Amigo con esto no compras ni el pronóstico del clima en un día nublado. Eso es, ya estamos progresando, pero todavía puedes hacerlo mejor. Ah por cierto, perdón por mi falta de modales, pero uno nunca es demasiado precavido. Ahora dime ¿Qué puedo hacer por ti? ¿El origen del Linaje? Lo que pides no es cualquier cosa. Vampiros. Una palabra muy en boga en nuestros días que no define a la sociedad de los no-muertos, sus luchas intestinas, su pasado envuelto en un halo de misterio. Tampoco su futuro, encarnado en un asesino de sonrisa macabra. Estas páginas son un atisbo al Linaje, un mundo oculto que bien puede encontrarse al borde del colapso.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WARNING! Contains moderate bloody violence against slavers and plantation owners!This pioneer vampire tale from 1819 spills revenge-cold blood as its narrator leads us through high gothic terror to radical outrage on the subject of slavery, reaching a blood-soaked conclusion dripping with 'biting' polemic vilifying the bankers who caused the economic recession of that same year.An anti-capitalist horror fable from 200 years ago, The Black Vampyre vilified the worst financial predation the capitalist world would ever see, decades before Karl Marx ― the enslavement of Africans in the New World.One dead man said no! And this is his story.The Black Vampyre; A Legend of St. Domingo tells the affrighting tale of a slave who is resurrected as a vampire after being killed by his owner; the slave seeks revenge by stealing the owner's son and marrying the owner's wife. The anonymous writer D'Arcy sets the story against the conditions that led to the Haitian Revolution.First published in chapbook form in New York in 1819, this emancipatory tale from literary New York in the 1810s arguably dates the birth of horror as know it!This edition features a new introduction as well as extensive notes and a guide to literary allusions.

Download or read book Pandora written by Anne Rice and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2010-11-17 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anne Rice, creator of the Vampire Lestat, the Mayfair witches and the amazing worlds they inhabit, now gives us the first in a new series of novels linked together by the fledgling vampire David Talbot, who has set out to become a chronicler of his fellow Undead. The novel opens in present-day Paris in a crowded café, where David meets Pandora. She is two thousand years old, a Child of the Millennia, the first vampire ever made by the great Marius. David persuades her to tell the story of her life. Pandora begins, reluctantly at first and then with increasing passion, to recount her mesmerizing tale, which takes us through the ages, from Imperial Rome to eighteenth-century France to twentieth-century Paris and New Orleans. She carries us back to her mortal girlhood in the world of Caesar Augustus, a world chronicled by Ovid and Petronius. This is where Pandora meets and falls in love with the handsome, charismatic, lighthearted, still-mortal Marius. This is the Rome she is forced to flee in fear of assassination by conspirators plotting to take over the city. And we follow her to the exotic port of Antioch, where she is destined to be reunited with Marius, now immortal and haunted by his vampire nature, who will bestow on her the Dark Gift as they set out on the fraught and fantastic adventure of their two turbulent centuries together. Look for Anne Rice’s new book, Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis, coming November 29, 2016.

Download or read book El vampiro written by Nick Groom and published by Desperta Ferro Ediciones. This book was released on 2020-07-01 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tres siglos después de que un brote vampírico aterrorizara a la Europa central y dos siglos después de que el The Vampyre de Polidori irrumpiera en la escena literaria, llega esta nueva historia acerca del vampiro, que rastrea sus orígenes hasta un momento y un lugar: 1725, en las fronteras orientales del Imperio de los Habsburgo. Una serie de terroríficos acontecimientos sobrenaturales captó la atención de doctores, científicos y teólogos de todo el continente, que cristalizó en el choque entre la naciente racionalidad de la Ilustración y el folclore tradicional de los Balcanes. La investigación que derivó de esos hechos fue un tema de fascinación popular, mucho antes incluso de que poetas y escritores fueran también presas de una "vampiromanía" que alcanzó su punto álgido en 1897 con el Drácula de Bram Stoker. En esta nueva historia en torno al vampiro, Nick Groom, profesor de literatura inglesa en las universidades de Exeter y Macau y experto en literatura gótica, desentierra la compleja historia de una criatura de ficción devenida en icono, desde los tempranos intentos médicos por sustanciar la leyenda, a las supersticiones de la sangre y el cuerpo, las fuentes sobre Drácula o su relevancia en la cultura popular contemporánea. En este fascinante trayecto, Groom demuestra que el vampiro ha servido siempre para desafiar los convencionalismos, y es por ello por lo que en el presente se erige en un antihéroe esgrimido por los marginados y excluidos. ¿Criatura de ficción, hemos dicho?
