Dracula Bookmarks
Targoviste - between myth and reality
Synopsis
Centuries ago, Vlad Tepes, a Romanian prince, became well known in Europe because of his bloody habit, impaling. For this reason, people called him Vlad the Impaler. One of the favourite cities to express this bloody wish, was Targoviste. That’s why, Vlad the Impaler has been associated with Dracula, and Targoviste as one of Dracula’s house.
How does it look Targoviste nowadays?
A very quiet town, the only army that makes noise is for the celebration of the town.
Αιώνες πριν, γράφουν οι Ρουμάνοι συνεργάτες μας, ένας αιμοσταγής ηγεμόνας της Βλαχίας, ο Βλαντ Τέπες, ήταν διαβόητος στην Ευρώπη για τη συνήθειά του να ανασκολοπίζει τους εχθρούς του. Ένα από τα κάστρα του, το κάστρο του Δράκουλα βρίσκεται στην πόλη μας, Ταργκοβίστε, σήμερα μια ήσυχη επαρχιακή πόλη. Ο μόνος στρατός που παρελαύνει είναι οι κάτοικοι κατά τις τοπικές γιορτές.

NOTE: Demeter, the ancient goddess of earth, had a special connection to our town. "Demeter" is the name of the ship with which Dracula travelled from Romania to England, in a most thrilling story within a story!

ΣΗΜ.: Στο βιβλίο, ο Δράκουλας ταξιδεύει από τη Ρουμανία στην Αγγλία με καράβι που ονομάζεται ΔΗΜΗΤΡΑ! Πρόκειται για τη θεά των Ελευσινίων μυστηρίων που δίδαξε την καλλιέργεια του σίτου και έδωσε ελπίδα για τη μεταθανάτια ζωή στους θνητούς!

The eternal questions! Only yesterday, during our bookclub meeting, the Elton asked about afterlife, the day before that Muslum asked me about faith. A perfect timing to talk!
Please show us how to use it in our Wednesday chat
question due to my opinion is wrong.there is no soul,only our self exist.by the way most people think (ancient greek phiosophers too) it's not immortal.but there are many ways for someone to be immortal.when u achieve great things in your life you become immportal through your actions(e.g great alexander),when you help the society and you are beloved to anyone then you will be immortal(peisistratos,tyran of athens that was beloved from every democratic citizen of greece,kolokotronis that helped in the fight against turks in 1821).also through our books our ''soul'' can get immortality,dont have to say that ots of people know lots of famous writers that still help them through their books. periklis,eleusina
Dear Periclis, I am happy to see your opinion writen. It is an opposite argument and you are allowed to write directly to debategraph. You only need to click to icon below and to make an account. The rest is very easy. If you need I will give you assistance on mess. Zoe
I think that the soul is immortal. The afterlife is the proposed continued existence of the soul, spirit or mind of a being after physical death. Also, there are many people who believe that after you die, your soul is still alive.
I think that human soul is both mortal and immortal. It is mortal because is a part of the human body and dies at once with the body. It is also immortal because someone's soul influences some other people's souls and those togheter keep alive the soul of the person who influenced them. Souls can't be apart from what they love. Maybe from here started the ghosts stories...souls that can't suffer the separation of what they care about. oana, targoviste
I have heard people say that human soul is immortal and other people say the opposite. But in my opinion I think human soul is immortal. Our body dies but our soul stay alive and lives somewhere in another “planet”. ELTON
