| Vlad Tepes, collected |
Why I chose him:
Honestly,
I chose him because I wanted to do something out of the box. We all knew what
Dracula is or who Bram Stoker is. But not every one of us knows about the real
inspiration behind the iconic dark prince, Dracula. People should know that the
person who was the blueprint for Dracula was even more sinister than the
fictional character.
Dracula
was vampire, he needed blood to survive. But his real counterpart was a flesh
and blood human. He enjoyed hurting people only for the sake of his
satisfaction. I believe he might be one of the earliest examples of a sadist.
People my age really like to know about such historical facts about real life
torturers, whether we admit it or not. So, I think this topic will be a bit
more appealing because it is not usual. Also, I did not want to coincide with
someone else with the same topic, so I chose someone who nobody may think
about.
Dracula
by Bram Stoker is one of my all-time favorite, not because of the content but
because of the writing style. So, this speech is also like an appreciation to
the writer. Dracula is also phenomenal in the literature. It gave birth to
countless new novels, films, music and even fashion. So, people should know who
that one person is that put such an impression on Stoker to shake the world.
For
all these reasons, I chose Vlad the Impaler as my topic.
