They are children forever, just imagine all the things they have not gotten to experience yet or ever for that matter. I also recognize the constant need and desire for companionship because even though they have this incredible strength they had to survive virtually on their own. All children really want is a friend, someone to talk to about their problems and to play with and such; I think this need for companionship also makes them feel "alive". I agree with the relationship between Hakan and Eli, that he is merely their for Eli to make sure she didn't feel alone because I am sure she is more than capable at finding her own meal.

For Carmilla it's quite obvious that she's very victorian because it's easy for us to pick apart her characteristics, since it's a far away time period. <br /><br />For Claudia and Eli are from more recent time periods, but both are distinctive. Eli is living around the time of the end of the cold war. She's very egocentric. She doesn't want to have to bend to anyone else's will and wants things her way. <br /><br />Claudia doesn't really have a set time period as you see her throughout her life and that changes. However, if we go by the time in which the author wrote the book, the 70's, then you can see a slight theme in that it's a ragtag band of people traveling together. Claudia is just trying to find a home and a place where she feels like she belongs as the world around her changes, which happened to many people during the 70's.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12634771631419002073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3658578941824322665.post-55296912998667591662010-12-10T17:42:59.296-08:002010-12-10T17:42:59.296-08:00Hello and good afternoon,

To be honest, I never actually thought about that and compared these three people. I may have compared Dracula to Lestat and the differences and similarities between the two, but never Claudia, Carmilla and Eli.<br /><br />When it comes to this, you have a very good and strong point because they do seem the type to be needy and all seem to need a companionship or a type of relationship to fill their needs. However, they don't seem to be particular similar, they have their differences. I think that to made this blog better you could've went into further details about their differences than their similarities even though that was the main topic.Draculeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12566920438919171547noreply@blogger.com
