Fan Phenomena: The Twilight Saga
Intellect Books (Verlag)
978-1-78320-650-6 (ISBN)
This new entry in the Fan Phenomena series brings together scholars and fans to explore the vibrant fan culture and lasting legacy of the saga. Contributors address such topics as the role of mythology in the appeal of the series; the distinct fan groups drawn in by the books and films; the vast world of Twilight fan fiction (including a discussion of Fifty Shades of Grey, the blockbuster novel that began as Twilight fan fiction); the role of gender in Twilight’s global acceptance; and much more. As with all the books in the series, the essays included here are sophisticated and richly analytic, yet aimed as much at fans as at scholars.
Whether you’re interested in analysing its initial popularity or its impact on society more than a decade later, there’s no question you’ll find plenty in Fan Phenomena: The Twilight Saga to sink your teeth into.
Laurena Aker is a writer and managing editor for JesterZ Net Media.
