Hermenéutica de la narrativa del no-muerto: Frankenstein, Hyde, Drácula y el zombi

  • Jorge Martínez Lucena Author Universitat Abat Oliba CEU de Barcelona

Abstract

The literary figure of no-death found in romantic English literature – particularly in Frankenstein: Or the Modern Prometheus and Dracula – is analyzed hermeneutically in this article. The author attempts to explain to what extent it responds, in the myth, to an anthropological existential inquiry into the meaning of life and death, which is at the root of the anguish intensified in the modern age by the disappearance of an ideal from the realm of culture that is able to respond to the great mystery that is man.
