Qui est John William Polidori ? Pour l'histoire littéraire, il est le mystérieux auteur du VAMPIRE, publié en 1817, et longtemps attribué à Lord Byron...Polidori était en effet le médecin et le secrétaire du célèbre poète romantique. On sait d'autre part que polidori se trouvait durant l'été 1816, au bord du lac Léman, dans la fameuse Villa Diodati avec Byron, sa maîtresse, Claire Clairmont, Shelley et sa femme Mary.
C'est là qu'ils se lancent un défi : écrire en une journée une histoire de fantômes. Mary Shelley écrivit FRANKENSTEIN et Lord Byron le début d'une nouvelle, LE VAMPIRE, qu'il abandonna...Polidori, en bon secrétaire, conserva les feuillets et termina le texte.
LE VAMPIRE raconte l'histoire de Lord Ruthven, un aristocrate décadent au comportement étrange qui exerce une troublante fascination sur le jeune Aubrey, son compagnon de voyage...Les observations de ce dernier, les indices qui peu à peu se recoupent, les morts violentes des trois victimes finissent par ne plus laisser de doute sur la véritable identité du personnage : Lord Ruthven est bien un vampire...

The circumstances surrounding the creation of Lord Ruthven are legendary. In 1816, Dr. John William Polidori accompanied the famed poet Lord Byron on a trip through Europe. In Geneva, the duo met with Percy Shelley, Mary Godwin, and Clair Clairmont where they took accommodation on the shores of Lake Leman. One night in June, after they had aloud from Phantasmagoriana , a collection of horror tales, Byron suggested that they each write a ghost story. Mary Godwin worked on a tale that would later evolve into Frankenstein , Byron wrote (and quickly abandoned) a fragment of a story, whereas Polidori is remembered as having come up with a story about a skull-headed woman. However, Polidori had taken detailed notes during the trip, and used Byron's abandoned story as inspiration for his own tale. Dr. Polidori was inspired by real-life vampire cases that had occurred only a century before in Europe. 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.

Lives of the Great Romantics I
Shelley, Byron and Wordsworth by their Contemporaries
3 Volume Set General Editor: John Mullan
Edited by John Mullan, Chris Hart and Peter Swaab This edition brings together some of the most influential and fascinating memoirs of Shelley, Byron and Wordsworth, all written by nineteenth-century biographers with first-hand knowledge of their subject, collected here in facsimile for the first time. Early biographers fashioned the image of Shelley as an inspired and unworldly spirit, yet at the same time struggled to deal with or repress the matter of his sexual conduct. It is clear from current controversies that many of the uncertainties facing his biographers then are still with us today. Of the memoirs of Wordsworth, De Quincey's essays (greatly disliked by the Wordsworth family) and Christopher Wordworth's pious Memoirs which they commissioned, are perhaps the most influential. In the collected memoirs of Byron, it is Byron himself who is seen the most clearly to be struggling to control the portrayal of his character for posterity.

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.

Lorne Macdonald e-mail: macdonal@ucalgary.ca Professional Description: Lorne Macdonald's research interests are in English-language literature of the Revolutionary period (1770-1832: from the Boston Massacre to the First Reform Act, from the death of Chatterton to the death of Scott). He is especially interested in how and why writers thought of the upheavals of their time as monstrous (thus creating the subgenre now known as Gothic fiction); he is particularly interested in the house-party in Geneva in 1816, which gave birth to the two most famous monster's of modern times, Frankenstein's creature and the Vampyre. He is the author of Poor Polidori: A Critical Biography of the Author of "The Vampyre" (1991) and Monk Lewis: A Critical Biography (2000), and the co-editor (with Kathleen Scherf) of

The Life of Dante Gabriel Rossetti On April 8, 1826, Gabriele Giuseppe Rossetti married Frances Mary Lavinia Polidori in a Catholic ceremony. For the benefit of her family, they repeated their vows two days later with an Anglican ceremony in the Church of England. Gabriele Rossetti, a poet, lived in England due to his exile from Italy over controversies that arose from his political verses. Frances Polidori's father was an Italian expatriate, and her mother was English. Her brother was John William Polidori, author of The Vampyre. He was also the physician of Lord Byron who referred to him as "A young man more likely to contract diseases than to cure them" (Riede,6). After their marriage, the Rossettis moved into a house at No. 38, Charlotte Street , (later changed to 110 Hallam Street), Portland Place, London, where they had four children. The second born of the Rossettis, born on May 12, 1828, was christened Gabriel Charles Dante Rossetti. He is now known as Dante Gabriel Rossetti, poet and painter. The Rossettis other siblings included, older sister Maria, younger brother William, and younger sister Christina, who is also well known for her poetry.

Polidori was the oldest son of Gaetano Polidori, an Italian political ©migr©, and Anna Maria Pierce, a governess. He had three brothers and four sisters. He was one of the first pupils at Ampleforth College.

He went on from Ampleforth in to Edinburgh University , where he received his degree as a doctor of medicine on August 1, 1815 at the age of 19. In he entered Lord Byron's service as his personal physician. In 1816, Doctor Polidori accompanied Byron on a trip through Europe. In Geneva Switzerland , the pair met with Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, and her husband Percy Bysshe Shelley , and their companion Clair Clairmont. One night in June, after the company had read aloud from a collection of horror tales, Byron suggested that they each write a ghost story. Mary Shelley worked on a tale that would later evolve into Frankenstein . Byron wrote (and quickly abandoned) a fragment of a story, which Polidori used later as inspiration for his own tale.
