Abstract:

"L'"existence" du vampire est un leitmotiv récurrent dans des époques et des domaines très éloignés. Ses origines doivent être recherchées en partant de l'anthropologie, puisqu'elles sont étroitement liées aux croyances ancestrales et aux craintes ataviques de l'être humain. Mon étude se propose d'analyser les étapes et les éléments fondamentaux qui ont permis au non-mort d'exister depuis toujours et de s'adapter à chaque circonstance historique, géographique et culturelle. En particulier, en bâtissant un pont entre deux disciplines très éloignées, le folklore et le cinéma, je vise à cerner ce

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to explore the vampire motif using the psychological framework of C. G. Jung, which suggests that the vampire is an expression of archetypal contents from the collective unconscious, and that vampire narratives are variations on the theme of Self. Having established the reasons why analytical psychology is a particularly suitable approach for investigating this kind of popular phenomenon, the examination of the vampire motif falls into three main areas. Dicounters with Shadow Vampires looks at vampires which display characteristics particularly associated with the sha

The predominance of romance, exoticism and mystical powers of the supernatural embodied onscreen by the character of the vampire has created both allure and apathy in viewers.

Rather than the demons of Nosferatu (Murnau, 1922) and various other Dracula adaptations, or the romantic figures of Interview with the Vampire (Jordan, 1994), Twilight (Hardwicke, 2008), and even the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series (Whedon, 1997-2003), a se

Abstract:

This research examines representations of the soul in popular Western, post-millennial vampire film and television released between 2008 and 2017. A genre analysis, the study examines key vampire texts through the lens of sacred and secular philosophies of the soul, and argues that the contemporary vampire can be read as an ensouled creature with personhood. The research contributes to the film and television scholarship of the vampire horror sub-genre by offering a new way to conceptualize the vampire, and identifying what the study terms 'the sensitive cycle' of vampire horror.

Border Crossings and Multicultural Whiteness analyzes the interplay of cinema and nation in audience responses to vampire films. Since audiences accept nationality, race, and ethnicity as “natural” terms for social differentiation, I examine them in tandem with an exaggerated term for social differentiation that calls attention to its ideological constructivity: vampire. Vampire-film narratives involve border crossings, posing; questions about immigration, cultural assimilation, and foreign intervention that produce notions of nation, race, and ethnicity.

Since its entry into the literary field in the late eighteenth century, the vampire has seen many permutations, ranging from the truly monstrous to the present-day seductive stranger.

In exploring the figure of the vampire within the Germanic tradition, two works separated not only by medium, but also by nearly a century of time, emerged as the focus of this thesis: Ludwig Tieck’s Romantic Kunstmärchen “Der Runenberg” and Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau’s Expressionist film Nosferatu: Eine Symphoni
