The Dracula legend originated from medieval Romanian culture and was based on the acts of Vlad Tepes, known as Vlad the Impaler, a 15th century prince of Wallachia. Vlad Tepes himself adopted the name "Dracula" in his signatures in the 1470s. Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula brought the legend to international prominence and inspired dozens of film adaptations. Through Stoker's novel and its widespread influence, the Dracula legend was resurrected and amplified in modern popular culture, where it has remained an iconic figure representing fear and independence.

The main causes of World War 1 according to the document were militarism, alliances, imperialism, and nationalism. Militarism glorified armed strength in European nations. The system of alliances meant that conflicts could escalate as countries were bound by treaties to support each other militarily. Imperialism and nationalism increased tensions as countries competed for territory and a sense of national superiority. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand sparked World War 1 as it caused countries to take sides through their alliances and mobilize against each other.Assignment3

The document summarizes the Modernist period in English literature from the early 20th century to around 1965. Some key aspects of Modernism discussed include experimentation, individualism being virtues, and it being set in motion by cultural shocks like the two World Wars which shell-shocked Western civilization. Writers during this time often adopted Modernist views deliberately in response to these conflicts and changes in society. One example of a Modernist poet discussed is D.H. Lawrence and his poem "Patience" about a woman awaiting freedom.Violence in literature Slovakia

Vlad III, known as Vlad the Impaler, was a 15th century ruler of Wallachia who gained notoriety for his brutal methods of torture and execution. He impaled his enemies on stakes, sometimes leaving thousands of corpses on display. While not a supernatural vampire, Vlad's cruel acts and association with the Order of the Dragon inspired Bram Stoker's fictional character Dracula. Stoker incorporated details of Vlad's history, such as his Transylvanian origins and methods of torture, into the vampire of his novel. Though accounts of Vlad's brutality may be exaggerated, he established a reputation as an extremely violent and feared leader who helped shape the vampire mythology that Stoker drew upon.Fede and joaco

This poem describes the horrors of war experienced by soldiers. It depicts soldiers marching exhausted through mud, many having lost their boots. They are deaf to the sounds of other soldiers dropping behind from fatigue. The poem then describes putting on gas masks in a panic as gas attacks occur, and seeing a soldier drowning in a vision. The final stanzas depict in graphic detail the suffering of a dying soldier, with his hanging face and blood gargling from his lungs. The poet concludes that the glory of dying for one's country, which is told to children, does not convey the true horrors of war.The French Revolution and Les Mis辿rables

It was Welles' first feature film and he was given significant creative control by RKO studios. The film pioneered numerous innovative cinematography techniques like deep focus photography and long takes. It also featured expressionist lighting and camera angles as well as an unconventional non-linear narrative structure that examined Kane's life from different perspectives. Citizen Kane was both a critical and commercial failure upon release but is now widely considered one of the greatest films ever made.Lecture 10

Vlad Dracula II, also known as Vlad the Impaler, was born in 1428 in Transylvania and was known for his cruel actions that led people to describe him as the son of the devil. Bram Stoker based the character of Count Dracula in his 1897 novel on Vlad Dracula II, with the name Dracula meaning "son of the devil" in Romanian. Vlad ruled Wallachia from 1452 to 1462 and was known for impaling over 40,000 prisoners and people during his brutal rule. The legend of Count Dracula as a vampire who sleeps in a coffin and can only be active at night emerged from European folklore of the ninth century and Stoker popularized this vampireDracula Heroes and Villains Maroa

Vlad ruled the provinces of Transylvania and Wallachia in the 1400s and was known for his extreme cruelty, which earned him his moniker "Dracula" meaning "son of the dragon".

Stoker's short story "Dracula's Guest" introduces the character of Count Dracula and follows an unnamed narrator who ignores warnings and encounters strange occurrences on a road near an abandoned village in Germany.

Vlad III, Prince of Wallachia (modern-day Romania), was known as Vlad Dracula or Vlad the Impaler in the 15th century. He was a real person who was renowned for his brutal punishments, including impalement. Bram Stoker was inspired by Vlad's story to write his 1897 Gothic horror novel Dracula, in which the vampire Count Dracula seeks to prey on humans.

Dracula is a 1897 Gothic horror novel by Bram Stoker that introduced the vampire character Count Dracula and told the story of his move from Transylvania to England.

Vlad Dracula built numerous fortresses, including his alpine castle Poienari Citadel located in the Carpathian Mountains of northern Wallachia as a place of refuge, which still stands as an impressive ruin today.Dracula - Facts, Myth, Novel

Vlad III, known as Vlad the Impaler, ruled Wallachia in 1456 and 1462. He was known for his brutal methods of torture, including impaling his enemies. In 1462, the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II invaded Wallachia with a large army in response to Vlad stopping tribute payments. Vlad engaged in guerrilla warfare but could not prevent the Ottomans from taking the capital city.

:-Mac Flecknoe; or, A satyr upon the True-Blew-Protestant Poet, T.S. was a lampoon by John Dryden against the poet laureate Thomas Shadwell who superseded him in 1669.
Mac means son of. So, MacFlecknoe means Son of Flecknoe, while the word True-Blew means an extreme Whig Blue which was the colour of the Tories.
Richard Flecknoe (c. 1600 1678) was an English dramatist and poet. His works were praised by some critics and derided by others. Why John Dryden used his name to ridicule and satirize Thomas Shadwell, his contemporary and one time friend who later became an enemy, is not clear. Flecknoe was a minor poet having religious inclinations and most of his writings were private writings. So, Dryden calling him the monarch of absolute nonsense was similar to Iagos motive hunting of a motiveless malignity. Thomas Shadwell was called the son and successor of Flecknoe.Beautiful presentation of ROMANIA through the eyes of a student
