Since 1986, Rickels, a specialist in German literature and psychoanalytic theory (Aberrations of Mourning), has been giving vampire lectures at UC-Santa Barbara. He developed this "course load of auto-stimulation" to interest students in FreudAin particular, in his psychoanalytic treatment of mourning. The course was not an instant success, but 10 years later, it's standing room only. What appears here is, according to Rickels, "between reading/writing and the propagandistic talking of teaching." From embalming practices to pop culture, Rickels draws on every possible vampire metaphor to make his points.
