The long and distinguished tradition of the literary vampire began in Germany during the Age of Enlightenment. German literature was the first to adapt the vampire figure from central European folklore and superstition and give it literary form. Despite these German origins, scholarly attention devoted to literary vampires has consistently focused on a select set of sources: British and French literature, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, and the phenomenon of the vampire superstition in general. While there have been many illuminating studies of pre-literary vampires and vampires that have already been firmly established as literary figures, the story of the crucial moment of transition from folkloric figure to literary subject has not yet been told. In The Origins of the Literary Vampire Heide Crawford redirects scholarly attention to the body of German poetry and prose where vampire folklore becomes vampire literature. This book focuses on the adaptation of the vampire superstition from central European folklore by German poets in the 18th and early 19th centuries for an audience that had become increasingly interested in superstition and occult phenomena in an Age of Enlightenment. In addition to establishing that the origins of the literary vampire in 18th and 19th century German poetry and prose were informed by the stories and reports of vampires from Central Europe, Crawford argues that the German poets who adapted this figure from superstition for their creative work immediately molded it into a metaphor for contemporary cultural anxieties and fears—a connection that would inspire horror literature in general and the traits of the literary vampire in particular for the 19th century and beyond. Contemporary culture has exhibited a marked fascination with eroticized and politicized applications of the vampire. This volume traces these erotic motifs, common political motifs and others to the first vampire poems that were written by German poets. Consequently, this book answers three central questions: What were the origins of the literary vampire; how was the vampire of folklore and superstition adapted for literature; and how did German poets contribute to the development of the vampire and Gothic horror literature? By answering these and other questions, The Origins of the Literary Vampire explains how the literary vampire became the ubiquitous horror figure it is today.

La Morte Amore: Vampire Poetry of the 1800s From the introduction, The Dark Embrace by Corvis Nocturnum Classic romantic vampire poetry had its roots in the early 1700s and well into the next century. Vampires and their shift from decaying, foul revenents was first in poetry, in poems of German writers in the mid-eighteenth century, and soon caught the fascination of the creative libertines of the English and Frenchmen. The mix was soon to influence writers of the Gothic horror and Gothic romantic period and gave birth to the modern vampire we imagine the undying to be, garbed as Ann Rice details, resplendent in lace and velvet. I theorize, that, much like myself, the classic scribes of yesterday was to leave a mark on the world long after their own death, allowing them to live on through all eternity - our own sense of immortality. So it is with great pleasure I open the dusty tomes of the past and share the dark embrace of the earliest vampire poems in the collection "La Morte Amore" !
