This week Amanda and Victoria discuss the novella The Vampyre by John Polidori (NOT LORD BYRON), and how it helped create the vampire genre we know today.

durée : 00:35:00 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Philippe Garbit - En 1816, pendant l'horreur d'une profonde nuit, au bord du lac Léman, 4 amis, Mary et Percy Shelley, Lord Byron et son médecin, se mettent au défi d'écrire des contes épouvantables. Sous leurs plumes naissent deux monstres, "Frankenstein" de Mary Shelley et "Le Vampire" de John Polidori. - réalisation : Mydia Portis-Guérin
¡SORPRESAAAAAAA! Te dejo este capítulo por especial de Halloween, espero te guste tanto como a mí. Título: El Vampiro. Autor: John Polidori. Extraído del libro: Cuentos clásicos de vampiros. Editorial: EDITORES MEXICANOS UNIDOS, S.A. p.p. 5-24 ISBN: 978-968-15-1507-2
Soft spoken ASMR reading of The Vampyre by John William Polidori, written in 1819 as part of a short story contest with Lord Byron, Mary Shelley, and Percy Shelley. A crackling fireplace and a spooky atmosphere has been added as background ambience. Listen with headphones for the best experience. The Vampyre weaves a dark and haunting narrative, introducing Lord Ruthven—a charming yet sinister vampire. The story follows Aubrey, a young Englishman who becomes entangled in Ruthven's malevolent orbit. As they travel through Europe, Aubrey uncovers Ruthven's true nature, leading to horror and tragedy. Polidori's tale is filled with gothic intrigue, the struggle between innocence and evil, and the chilling realization that Ruthven's insidious influence may be inescapable. It's a tale that drips with suspense and dread, leaving readers captivated by its eerie allure. Soft spoken ASMR is used to provide listeners with comfort to ease symptoms of insomnia, anxiety, depression, and ptsd.

John William Polidori, an Italian-English physician and writer born in 1795, was a notable figure associated with the Romantic movement. As the eldest son of Gaetano Polidori, an Italian scholar, and Anna Maria Pierce, a governess, Polidori was exposed to intellectual pursuits from a young age. He received his medical degree from the University of Edinburgh in 1815 at the remarkably young age of 19. Polidori's literary talents and connections led him to serve as personal physician to the renowned poet Lord Byron, embarking on a European tour with him in 1816. During their travels, Polidori found himself in the company of other literary luminaries, including Mary Shelley and Percy Bysshe Shelley. It was during this time, at the Villa Diodati by Lake Geneva, that the idea for "The Vampyre" took shape. Inspired by a fragment of a story by Lord Byron, Polidori penned his own tale, which would go on to become the first vampire story in English literature. Originally published in April 1819 in the New Monthly Magazine, "The Vampyre" was falsely attributed to Lord Byron, likely to capitalize on his fame. This misattribution persisted for years, causing confusion over the true authorship of the story. Polidori's "The Vampyre" introduced several key features of the vampire archetype that would influence vampire literature for generations to come. Notably, his portrayal of Lord Ruthven, the titular vampyre, departed from the traditional folkloric depictions of vampires as grotesque creatures. Instead, Polidori's vampyre was an aristocratic figure, seductive and charming, preying on high society. Lord Ruthven's aristocratic allure, coupled with his predatory nature and mysterious aura, set the template for the modern vampire, ushering in a new era of vampire fiction characterized by sophistication and allure.

Those of a faint heart beware, our new Tale is a dark fantasy and horror classic: 'Dracula' by Bram Stoker. Tales of vampires weren't new when Stoker wrote Dracula; he borrowed heavily from Eastern European folklore and popularised stories of vampires. Published over a century ago, 'Dracula' still has the power to terrify.

La historia de la maldición de los hombres hiena ha permanecido oculta durante siglos. Su misterio, silenciado. El nombre de Trevor J. Von Castle, prohibido. Todos conocen la novela Drácula, la obra cumbre de Bram Stoker, publicada en 1897, por el talento del escritor irlandés, que, en 2023, cumple 126 años. Seguro que también han oído hablar del vampiro aristocrático que concibió John Polidori, nacido durante la misma noche en la que Mary Shelley ideó al monstruo de Frankenstein, o también de la novela Carmilla, escrita, por cierto, por otro irlandés, el fantástico Sheridan Le Fanu... ¿Y qué nos dicen de Vlad Tepes, el legendario héroe de Valaquia? Sin embargo, es muy probable que casi nadie haya oído hablar del bueno de Trevor J. Von Castle y su terrible maldición, una historia esencial para entender la consecución de una de las figuras más importantes de la literatura universal, el infame y terrible Drácula. Ignacio Pillonetto y Luchas Buchel ofrecen por fin el relato que revela uno de los secretos mejor guardados del universo vampírico.

Sorry for the late episode, y'all. I spent the weekend at Pensacon and had to push some things back. I hope you enjoy this reading of The Vampyre by John Polidori.

John Polidori almost fell into obscurity as a writer, when in fact, he was the father of vampire fiction as we know it.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the influential novella of John Polidori (1795-1821) published in 1819 and attributed first to Lord Byron (1788-1824) who had started a version of it in 1816 at the Villa Diodati in the Year Without A Summer. There Byron, his personal physician Polidori, Mary and Percy Shelley and Claire Clairmont had whiled away the weeks of miserable weather by telling ghost stories, famously giving rise to Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein'. Emerging soon after, 'The Vampyre' thrilled readers with its aristocratic Lord Ruthven who glutted his thirst with the blood of his victims, his status an abrupt change from the stories of peasant vampires of eastern and central Europe that had spread in the 18th Century with the expansion of the Austro-Hungarian empire. The connection with Lord Byron gave the novella a boost, and soon 'The Vampyre' spawned West End plays, penny dreadfuls such as 'Varney the Vampire', Bram Stoker's 'Dracula', F.W Murnau's film 'Nosferatu A Symphony of Horror', and countless others.

Historiquement Vôtre réunit des mordus de vampires : Dom Augustin Calmet, un abbé bénédictin qui s'est intéressé aux vampires au point de leur consacrer un Manifeste qui en dit long sur leur existence supposée. Puis celui qui fut le premier à faire du vampire un héros de littérature : John Polidori, le médecin personnel de Lord Byron, devenu l'auteur de “The Vampire” et d'un héros qui inspirera bientôt le personnage de Dracula. Et 2 mordus devenus carrément chasseurs de vampires dans les années 1970 qui ont enquêté sur le mystérieux cimetière de Highgate au nord de Londres et ce qu'ils ont vu - ou disent avoir vu - défie l'entendement : Sean Manchester et David Farrant.
Stéphane Bern et Matthieu Noël, entourés de leurs chroniqueurs historiquement drôles et parfaitement informés, s'amusent avec l'Histoire – la grande, la petite, la moyenne… - et retracent les destins extraordinaires de personnalités qui n'auraient jamais pu se croiser, pour deux heures où le savoir et l'humour avancent main dans la main. Aujourd'hui, : John Polidori, le médecin personnel de Lord Byron, devenu l'auteur de “The Vampire” et d'un héros qui inspirera bientôt le personnage de Dracula.
