Dracula: A Study of Editorial Practices focuses on deconstructing sanctioned Dracula criticism which, for decades, has constructed Transylvania as the land of the vampires. The present study is an unforgiving close look at scholarly editions of Stoker’s novel and shows that the scholarship and the editorial practices are flawed. Following in the Saidian tradition, this study makes the case that the editors of Dracula have misrepresented Transylvania, Romania, and East Central Europe in general, with little regard to the peoples and cultures of the region. This is a unique reference book for specialists interested both in editorial theory and in publishing critical editions of Victorian novels.
