Autorenporträt
Bram Stoker, born Abraham Stoker on November 8, 1847, in Dublin, Ireland, was an influential Irish author best known for his landmark novel Dracula. He was the son of Abraham Stoker and Charlotte Matilda Blake Thornley. As a child, he faced significant health challenges, spending much of his early years bedridden, which shaped his imagination and literary sensitivity. Stoker later attended Trinity College Dublin, where he studied mathematics and became involved in the philosophical society and athletics. Though he began his career as a civil servant in Dublin Castle, he also worked as a theater critic, which led to his lifelong association with the actor Henry Irving. In 1878, Stoker married Florence Balcombe and relocated to London, where he managed the Lyceum Theatre for Irving and moved among prominent artistic and literary circles. His writing, especially Dracula, reflected his fascination with folklore, mysticism, and the supernatural, blending gothic atmosphere with Victorian anxieties. Stoker authored several other novels and short stories, though none matched the enduring legacy of Dracula. He died on April 20, 1912, in London at age 64, leaving a lasting impact on horror literature and popular culture.
