Thesis (M.A.)--State University of New York at Stony Brook, 2015.

The primary goal of this thesis is to offer a way of rehabilitating the figure of Dracula by using Victorian and modern death practices to inform our understanding of Stoker's narrative. The method I propose is to extend Stoker's antagonist beyond his construction as an "Un-Dead" being lacking complexity into what I am calling the ideology of "Undeath." Undeath restores the identity of the Un-Dead being, and seeks to legitimatize the being's current existence. Victorians were hindered from seeing Undeath in the narrative due to the contemporary tension between religious and secular approaches to death, however, modern scholars have the ability to not only see the struggle of Undeath but to understand its implications to the extent that we may acquire a sensitivity for Dracula as a character.
