Abstract
In this quote from Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula, Count Dracula tells Jonathan Harker about his intention to move to London (Stoker, 1993: 31). Dracula, one of a large number of nineteenth-century novels to address urban life in London, was published in 1897 when cinematography was just two years old. At the turn of the twentieth century, Victorian culture’s long-lasting fascination with London migrated into early non-fiction films revealing aspects of urban life at the heart of the British Empire (Figure 11.1).KeywordsUrban LifeImperial CultureZoological GardenFilm CompanyEarly FilmThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
