Dracula

Last lesson we practiced how to talk about our appearance.

Now I want you to read an abstrack  of the novel "Dracula" by Bram Stoker.

Here there is a description of one of its characters Dr. Van Helsing:
"...a man of medium weight, strongly built, with his shoulders set back over a broad, deep chest and a neck well balanced on the trunk as the head is on the neck. The poise of the head strikes me at once as indicative of thought and power. The head is noble, well-sized, broad, and large behind the ears. The face, cleanshaven, shows a hard, square chin, a large resolute, mobile mouth, a good-sized nose, rather straight, but with quick, sensitive nostrils, that seem to broaden as the big bushy brows come down and the mouth tightens. The forehead is broad and fine, rising at first almost straight and then sloping back above two bumps or ridges wide apart, such a forehead that the reddish hair cannot possibly tumble over it, but falls naturally back and to the sides. Big, dark blue eyes are set widely apart, and are quick and tender or stern with the man's moods..."



Below there is a real portrait o f Vlad the Impaler; also known as Vlad Dracula. Can you describe this man?

  2. This is a Dracula and he have average height. It is possible that appearance played a role in the formation of pathological cruelty of Vlad III. Whatever it was, the person in the portrait agrees well with the image, getting up from the pages of the chronicles. We see a richly dressed, dark-haired man with bulging eyes; large groomed mustache not hide sensual cutout nostrils, chin and pushed Protruding lower lip give the face stubbornly contemptuous expression. Eyes dark, indifferent who saw, according to legend, all through.
