Download or read book Varney the Vampire Vol 1 3 written by Thomas Peckett Prest and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-16 with total page 1697 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Varney the Vampire (Vol.1-3) stands as a monumental anthology within the gothic literature panorama, bridging the realms of supernatural folklore and the burgeoning Victorian anxieties surrounding modernity and morality. This collection, encompassing an array of narratives from the macabre to the romantic, showcases the diversity of literary styles and the depth of thematic exploration characteristic of the period. The works within these volumes are pivotal in tracing the evolution of the vampire myth in Western literature, offering readers a comprehensive view of the social and cultural undercurrents that shaped such tales. The anthology draws from the prolific outputs of Thomas Peckett Prest and James Malcolm Rymer, whose collaborative efforts are often overshadowed by their contemporary, Bram Stoker, yet remain crucial in the groundwork of vampiric literature. Their backgrounds as writers for penny dreadfuls allowed them to capture the zeitgeist of Victorian society, blending sensationalism with acute observations of human nature and societal change. This collection, therefore, encompasses not only stories of the supernatural but also serves as a commentary on the fears and fascinations of the era it was born in. Varney the Vampire (Vol.1-3) is an indispensable resource for those interested in the origins and evolution of vampire mythology and its intersection with cultural, social, and historical discourses of the 19th century. Readers are invited to delve into this collection not only for its entertainment value but also for its ability to illuminate the complexities of human nature, morality, and the supernatural. Through its diverse range of narrative voices and styles, this anthology offers a unique opportunity to engage with the foundational texts that continue to influence gothic literature and horror genres today.

Download or read book Varney the Vampire written by Thomas Peckett Prest and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-11-13 with total page 1696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Varney the Vampire; or, the Feast of Blood is a Victorian era serialized gothic horror story variously attributed to James Malcolm Rymer and Thomas PeckettPrest. It first appeared in 1845–1847 as a series of weekly cheap pamphlets of the kind then known as "penny dreadfuls". The author was paid by the typeset line, so when the story was published in book form in 1847, it was of epic length: the original edition ran to 876 double-columned pages and 232 chapters. Altogether it totals nearly 667,000 words. It is the tale of the vampire Sir Francis Varney, and introduced many of the tropes present in vampire fiction recognizable to modern audiences. It was the first story to refer to sharpened teeth for a vampire, noting "With a plunge he seizes her neck in his fang-like teeth." While ostensibly set in the early eighteenth century, there are references to the Napoleonic Wars and other indicators that the story is contemporary to the time of its writing in the mid-nineteenth century. Varney's adventures also occur in various locations including London, Bath, Winchester, Naples and Venice. Scholars like A. AsbjørnJøn have noted that Varney was a major influence on later vampire fiction, including the renowned novel Dracula (1897) by Bram Stoker.
