Originally published in French in 2004, Matei Cazacu's Dracula
remains the most authoritative scholarly biography of the
Wallachian prince Vlad III the Impaler (1448, 1456-1462, 1476). Its
core is an exhaustively researched reconstruction of Dracula's life
and political career, using original sources in more than nine
languages. In addition Cazacu traces Dracula's metamorphosis, at
the hands of contemporary propagandists, into variously a
bloodthirsty tyrant, and an early modern "great sovereign." Beyond
this Cazacu explores Dracula's transformation into "the vampire
prince" in literature, film and folklore, with surprising new
discoveries on Bram Stoker's sources for his novel. In this first
English translation, the text and bibliography are updated, and
readers are provided with an appendix of the key sources for
Dracula's life, in fresh and accurate English translations.
