During a night of storm and wind under the sky of San Francisco, Emerson and I sat in the library of VA by the fireplace and discussed Bram Stoker's Dracula.
"He is to me, discernibly, the Victorian Vampire of Gothic romance. Just as Mina is a strong female lead with a strong heart for both Jonathan and for the real feelings she has in her heart. I do not juxtapose that Dracula had no bend in the way she was lead toward him but ultimately in the deepest part of her heart, Mina fell for what Count Dracula stood for: Confidence, brooding darkness and a mysterious nature that is immortality and completely the opposite of Jonathan." EHart
"In the way that Mr. Stoker wrote the novel, the journal entry of Jonathon leads not only mystery but also sensuality," JRose
"I could feel the soft, shivering touch of the lips on the super-sensitive skin of my throat, and the hard dents of two sharp teeth, just touching and pausing there. I closed my eyes in a languorous ecstasy and waited--waited with beating heart." B. Stoker
"...Yes Mina wants to understand and be a part of Dracula's immortality, this is why she is strong because she wants something much different than anything she has ever known." JRose
"There is a sensuality of dark things. Perhaps what we fear creates a mystery to what we do not understand and that mystery brings about the same tremulous motion that fear brings." EHart
"The sensuality is demanding just as the intensity of something sharp entering the body gives command. The Count wants Mina to let go and she in turn wishes the same but the clause is that she has a mortality connection where as the Count has only memory of mortality. To him the mystery is what is inside of her veins and it is like a drug of memory when it comes to feeding not only for resource but for mental and for lack of a better word (as Dracula has no soul) a spiritual connection to something." JRose
"No man knows till he experiences it, what it is like to feel his own life-blood drawn away into the woman he loves." B. Stoker
"There is an ego to wanting to live forever. The Count is that parallel between what humans most seek and what humans would modestly take for granted had they been granted this notion. Dracula does not wish to live forever when he realizes within himself the ever pointlessness of being that life and death are one of the same circle but the 'gift' he has been given is a curse and that curse is that his circle can not continue so he uses Mina rhetorically as the key to connect." EHart
"I on my part give up the uncertainty of eternal rest and go out into the dark where may be the blackest things that the world or the nether world holds!" B. Stoker
"It is a beautiful and Gothic romance for me, Dracula is the epitome of dark and foreboding Love and the eternal question mortals have no answer to but hope to find within each of their lives; immortality." EHart
"Ah immortality. Fitting." JRose
