John William Polidori (1795 - 1821) John Polidori studierte Medizin und wurde bereits im Alter von Zwanzig Leibarzt des bereits berühmten Lord Byron. Polidori begleitete Byron auf dessen Reisen auf dem europäischen Kontinent. Gerüchten zur Folge soll Polidori auch Byrons Liebhaber gewesen sein. 1816 entstand aus einem dichterischen Wettstreit mit Byron sowie Mary Shelley die Erzählung The Vampyre - die erste Vampirerzählung der Weltliteratur.

The Vampyre was written by John William Polidori in 1819. Polidori was born in 1795 and died in 1821. He was invited to be the travelling companion of Lord Byron , who was leaving England for a continental tour of Europe in the spring of 1816. In Geneva they were joined by Claire Clairmont, Mary Godwin and Percy Bysshe Shelley. “Lord Byron abhorred the vampire yet ironically has ever since bee its literary counterpart.” Seán Manchester (First edition of The Highgate Vampire Several days later, during stormy weather which limited their movements, Byron suggested that each person begin a ghost story, and read tales from Fantasmagoriana to inspire the group. Mary Godwin was the only person who took Byron's proposal really seriously. Her tale eventually developed into the novel Frankenstein Polidori kept a journal of his experiences in Europe, plus a synopsis of Byron's story. He took the plot of Byron's summer tale and developed it into a short story of his own, ie The Vampyre , which was published in the April 1819 issue of New Monthly magazine.

John Polidori , author of the Vampyre, was hired as Lord Byron' s personal physician and secretary. Polidori received his doctorate at only 19, one of the youngest recorded graduates of the University of Edinburgh where he studied mesmerism and wrote his thesis on sleepwalking. It was here the Burke and Hare bodysnatching scandal erupted slightly over a decade later. It is said he only became a physician in order to please his father Gaetano Polidori , translator of Horace Walpole 's The Castle of Otranto into Italian. The elder Polidori had also been secretary to a literary figure, the Italian poet Alfieri Although Shelley and Byron prided themselves on their revolutionary principles, in practice the two aristocrats behaved very differently. They mocked Polidori for his literary pretensions and his (not unfounded) belief that he was their intellectual equal. Goaded by Byron to "play the gentleman"

Web resources Course description "I am going among Scenery whence I intend to tip you the Damosel Radcliffe I'll cavern you, and grotto you, and waterfall you, and wood you, and water you, and immense-rock you, and tremendous sound you, and solitude you." By the time Keats wrote this in a letter of 1818, the Gothic genre that had been so productive for over thirty years (Radcliffe's first novel was produced in 1789) might have appeared good only for parody. Yet the lure of the genre remained powerful: Frankenstein was published the same year and Polidori's The Vampyre appeared in 1819. In this course we will focus in particular on the psychology of the Gothic and consider how far it enabled writers and readers to explore alternate forms of subjectivity. In particular, long before Freud, Lacan, or Kristeva, Gothic writers attempted to probe Oedipal themes, the power of the symbolic order, or the experience of the abject. This inquiry will be pursued through an interplay between Gothic fictions, the evidence left by their first readers, and some study of modern critical writing on the Gothic.

Interesting Facts about Mary Shelley 's Frankenstein: It's the most famous "dark and stormy night" in literary history. Every English major knows the story of the June 17, 1816, house party at the Villa Diodati on Lake Geneva, where five young English people playfully vied with one another to tell a ghost story. The soap-operatic cast of characters is irresistible. The charismatic leader of the group (and also the initiator of the contest) was Lord Byron, the foremost celebrity of the age, a bestselling poet, talented, handsome, rich, witty, titled, Byron had brought with him as paid companion a young doctor (Byron's erratic crash dieting sometimes endangered his health), John William Polidori, 21, who was also an aspiring litterateur. The third man of the group, Percy Bysshe Shelley, 23, was a decidedly radical (though always emotional) thinker who had recently begun to publish his own poetry.

However, rather than use the crude, bestial vampire of folklore as a character template, Polidori based his antagonist on his former friend, Lord Byron. Although the mysterious character in Byron's piece was named Darvell, Polidori renamed the character "Lord Ruthven" as a snide in-joke. The name was originally used in Lady Caroline Lamb's novel Glenarvon, in which a thinly-disguised Byronesque figure was also named Lord Ruthven. By creating Lord Ruthven, John Polidori altered the face of vampire fiction forever. Lord Ruthven was not only the first vampire in English fiction, but was the first fictional vampire in the form we recognize today - an aristocratic fiend who preyed among high society. Polidori's story, "The Vampyre," was published in the April 1819 issue of New Monthly Magazine. Much to both his and Byron's chagrin, "The Vampyre" was released as a new work by Byron. Byron even released his own "Fragment of a Novel" in an attempt to clear up the mess, but, for better or worse, "The Vampyre" continued to be attributed to him.
