Description

Vampyyrit ovat nyt suositumpia kuin koskaan! Koska vampyyreita on monenlaisia, ei ole mahdollista määrittää, millainen kuva vampyyreista on "oikea" ja mikä on lopullinen totuus vampyyreista. Teos Vampyyrit kansanperinteestä populaarikulttuuriin on eräänlainen kollektiivinen tutkimus siitä, millaisina vampyyrit näyttäytyvät tämän päivän ihmisille. Suurin osa artikkeleista perustuu folkloristiikan oppiaineessa keväällä 2011 järjestettyyn Vampyyrit kansanperinteestä populaarikulttuuriin -kurssiin ja opiskelijoiden kurssilla pitämiin esitelmiin. Vampyyrifiktiota ja vampyyrien historiaa lähestytään monipuolisesti mm. arkistolähteiden, keskiaikaisten dokumenttien, kirjallisuuden, elokuvien, turismin ja roolipelien kautta. Teksteissä tarkastellaan vampyyreita niiden ikivanhoista esi-isistä 2000-luvun romansseihin, käsitellään kansanperinteen, elokuvien, kirjallisuuden ja roolipelien vampyyrikuvia, kuvaillaan vaarallisia, inhottavia, jännittäviä, naurettavia ja viehättäviä vampyyreja. Kuva vampyyreista muodostuu siten monenlaisten aineistojen ja monen erilaisen kirjoittajan näkemysten ristivalotuksessa.
