520 | |a “The Judge's House,” one of Dracula author Bram Stoker's best-known works of short fiction, is a horror tale in which Malcolm Malcolmson, a young college student, rents a haunted house to study for his mathematical tripos exams. He finds himself unable to combat the spirit of a dead, malevolent judge, embodied in the form of a rat. Stoker uses this story as a way of dramatizing the inefficacy of pure reason—symbolized in Malcolmson's mathematical studies—as a foundation for epistemology. Instead, the Christian faith—represented by Malcolmson's ancestral Bible—provides him the resources to ward off a distinctly supernatural evil, though he tragically fails to avail himself of this resource. | ||
