The mirror reflexes the vanity of human
In terms of writers' view, there are two ways of revealing or expressing the anxiety of period. The first way of revealing the period that is especially the victorian is that writers are not showing the society indirectly, but giving some things to readers that are hidden by their own purpose. So when the readers find out the hidden meaning by looking over the text thoroughly, a feeling of surprise suddenly comes to the readers as if they never had such that experience. Although this is quite abstract, it is also telling on me to write this subject. The second way of expressing the anxiety is to show the period directly, so that the readers could understand what writers are trying to talk about more immensely and specifically than the indirect revelation.
Following the ways that I mentioned above, in Dracula written by Bram Stoker and Oscar Wilde's The picture of Dorian Gray, they are both regarded a mirror as a vehicle for revealing the vanity of human. In Bram Stoker’s novel, Dracula, Jonathan Harker says “But there was no reflection of him in the mirror! The whole room behind me was displayed, but there was no sign of a man in it, except myself.”(p57) Dracula does not appear in the mirror which means the real monster is not actually Dracula, but metaphorically the victorian England. When I read this part at first, I though that the mirror is not such that important. Because, sometimes people are quite monolithic, so that they just see some figures as it looks without noticing the real meaning of them like as Dorian Gray who is the protagonist of Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray.
