The Democratic Genre : Fan Fiction in a Literary Context, Paperback / softback Book

The Democratic Genre : Fan Fiction in a Literary Context Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Fandoms as diverse as Jane Austen, Blake's 7, and The Bill are explored in this guide to the cultural phenomenon of fan fiction.

Examining how anonymous authors bring their own gloss and invention to their favorite novels, films, and TV series; develop characters; expand narratives; and, in the slash genre, explore homosexual relationships between otherwise heterosexual characters, this analysis covers fanfic terminology, its mechanisms for participation and support, the differences between fan fiction and conventional publishing, and the genre's literary merits.
