Analysis

Chapter One

  • Notice the good relationship Mina and Jonathan have early on. Jonathan leaves memos in his journal for Mina to retrieve recipes. 

 

Chapter Two

  • Very cinematic ending: "the castle is a veritable prison, and I am a prisoner!" 

 

Chapter Three

  • Jonathan has a great interest in facts (31)
  • His religion is fact and science 
  • Mina learns and writes in shorthand to aide Jonathan (although she doesn't know it is to help him trick Dracula)
  • "the old centuries have...powers that 'modernity' cannot kill" (36)

 

Chapter Four

  • Jonathan has no idea how he got to his own bed and cannot come to an "unquestionable result" about how. He cannot fathom the fantastical nature of Dracula.
  • Rather theatrical, suspenseful, ending

Adaptations

  • In the adaptation, one of the most troubling aspects is how women fall all over themselves for men in ways they normally would not
  • The "Bram Stokery" parts are left out of the film
  • One of the primary themes of the novel, man's desire for science versus superstition, is almost entirely deleted from the film
