Roger Luckhurst's introduction to the Oxford World's Classics edition of Dracula says that all the male characters have moments of "hysteria", or what would have been considered hysteria at the time. I don't know about that, though. I don't think we should misgender Quincey Morris just because he's American.
#dracula#highly unserious dracula thoughts#the things i come across while reading stuff for thesis#he's right about all the others though i think#arthur grows pale and has to sit down lest he should faint#very gothic heroine-coded of him#seward is depressed which at the time might have been termed “male hysteria” based on an article i read#he also has his emotional moments but they're not as overt as jonathan's or van helsing's#Quincey breaks with the pattern though
