The life (in fact the lives) of Vlad III ¿the Impaller¿ or ¿Draculä is a Rorschach test.
Everybody sees what they want to see in the ¿documentary stains¿. And these ¿stains¿ are
expanding. Based on research in the archives and libraries of Budapest Dubrovnik Genoa
Mantua Milan Modena Munich Rome Venice and Vienna the book focuses on the conflictive
medieval and modern images created by the clash between the classical pictures of Vlad and the
still preserved coeval sources.
