What if between good and evil did not exist? Where would you be located? Today, we believe that everyone is born with some evil within them. In Victorian times this theory would be considered very wrong, as everyone would either be entirely good or entirely evil. In Bram Stoker's Dracula, good versus evil was symbolized throughout the book as two unmediated antithetical forces. By clearly demonstrating the relationship between dualistic ideas of intuition versus logic, good characters confronting devil-like figures, and symbolism within the natural world, Bram Stoker effectively narrates a "holy war" between the antagonistic forces of good and bad. good and evil were seen in the whole aspect of intuition versus the logic of the book. Dr. Seward writes in his diary: “Yesterday [he] was almost ready to accept the monstrous ideas of Van Helsing; but now they seem to begin before me as outrages to common sense. I have no doubt that he believes everything. I wonder if his mind may have become unbalanced in some way. Surely there must be a rational explanation for all these mysterious things. (174).

Dr. Seward writes that he was at first convinced that Lucy was in fact a vampire, but then thought these ideas were far-fetched. He is unwilling to accept Van Helsing's intuition because his thoughts cannot be justified by logic, but can be proven simply by beliefs. Similarly, Jonathan has initial feelings about Dracula that he was convinced were wrong because they were not rational thoughts. He writes that "there is something so strange about this place and everything in it that he cannot help but feel uneasy." (2...... middle of paper ......l. After discovering this, Van Helsing, Dr. Seward, Quincey and Arthur chased her away and killed the evil soul that had taken over She then truly dies and is left in her natural, human state. Additionally, Jonathan confronting Dracula is another example of good versus evil, as shown when Jonathan wrote that "when the Count saw [. his] face, his eyes shone with a kind of demonic fury, and he suddenly grabbed [his] throat [Jonathan] moved away, and [the earl's] hand touched the pearl necklace that held the. crucifix, without knowing it, put himself in danger by entering the room The Count's castle, in which there was only evil. He could only protect himself by possessing religious objects, including the Count. , a demonic character, was afraid Good and evil were also manifested through the relationship between good and purely good characters opposing evil characters..
