Catalog description

In this course we will use the Game of Thrones series as a way of familiarizing ourselves with different tools of cultural analysis and approaches in literary theory (such as narratology, psychoanalysis, media studies, queer theory, disability studies, animal studies etc.). A strong emphasis will be placed on the different media avatars of the series: novels, TV series, graphic novels, spin-offs, fan fiction, blogs, fan art, etc.
