Dracula Blog Post #3: Good vs. Evil

For your final blog post on Dracula, consider the theme of good vs. evil in the novel. Don't just think in terms of good guys and bad guys, but also keep in mind the deep religious connections between the two, as discussed in class. Be sure to do the following...

- How could you argue that your character is both good and evil? What has either made them fight for evil or fight for good? Explain in detail.

- Give a specific example of each from events/descriptions in the book, at least one of which includes a quote (with page number) to help prove your point.

- Do you believe in good and evil? Do you think some people are inherently good and some are inherently evil? Explain your position.

- Leave TWO comments on your classmates' posts about the topic of Sex. In your comment, explain whether or not you agree with their connection between the book's event(s) and the theme of Sex and why.

- Be sure to include your initials both at the end of your post and in each comment you publish!
