Bøker av Stacey Abbott

Exploring how the figure of the vampire has been infused with the language of science, disease and apocalypse, while the zombie text has increasingly been influenced by the trope of the `reluctant' vampire, Stacey Abbott shows how both archetypes are actually two sides of the same undead coin.

In this entertaining and absorbing work, author Stacey Abbott challenges the conventional interpretation of vampire mythology and argues that the medium of film has completely reinvented the vampire archetype.
