Questions this course answers
Why does Harker's journal matter at the beginning?
Harker begins by treating local fear as picturesque, then his careful record becomes evidence of an impossible imprisonment.
What gives Dracula access to London?
The Count uses boxes of earth, purchased houses, servants, and commercial routes rather than entering as a simple folklore apparition.
Why is Lucy's illness difficult to understand?
Seward and the others observe real symptoms, but their separate accounts do not become a diagnosis until Van Helsing connects them.
What does Mina contribute to the hunt?
Mina's typing and editorial work makes the group's information shareable and lets them compare dates, routes, and observations.
How should readers understand the novel's modernity?
The Count uses transport and property networks, while the hunters use documents and timetables; cooperation and interpretation matter more than one system.
What is lost in the final victory?
Dracula is destroyed, but Quincey dies and the surviving documents still ask readers to judge extraordinary testimony.
