Literary notes about Transfusion (AI summary)
In literature, the term "transfusion" is often employed to evoke both a literal and symbolic exchange of vitality. In H. G. Wells’s work, for instance, it appears in a clinical and reflective context—both as the subject of discussion and as a recalled memory of scientific work [1, 2]. Bram Stoker’s Dracula, on the other hand, uses "transfusion" more repeatedly and dramatically. In this narrative, the term not only denotes a medical procedure—implying immediacy and urgency in preserving life [3, 4]—but also serves as a metaphor for intimate, transformative connection, as seen when it is linked to the binding of destiny and identity between characters [5, 6].
