Dracula is perhaps almost as interesting regarded
historically as the product of a specific time as it is
engaging to continuing generations of readers in a
'timeless' fashion. In her introduction Byron first
discusses the famous novel as an expression not of universal
fears and desires but of specifically late
nineteenth-century concerns. At the same time she is
entirely attuned to the ways in which, however much Dracula
is a Victorian text, Dracula is a very twentieth-century
character, a representative of modernity and of the future.
