Monster Sociology 이진혁 Lee jin hyeok

In Western religious culture, monsters almost have Horns, thick hair, beard, misshapen nose and protruding abdomen. Why they were depicted to that appearance?. Religious people afraid to have sin. So they make hideous monster who is different to them. Because they want to be seen relatively more kinder than monster that they depict. Monsters are not just born for the horror purposes. Some monsters reflect the aspect of the society of at that time.




Dracula is figure of the capitalists in the middle ages. laborers in the Middle Ages suffer from capitalists. Capitalists deprive their food and money. Even they hard work, they did not receive pay properly. The workers felt to be sucked their blood to the capitalists. Appearance of these capitalists was shaped into Dracula.
