Item description from seller

Zustandsbeschreibung: leichte Lagerspuren/near mint. Vol. 2: Heroes, Villains and Pulsions. Edited by Alfonso Álvarez-Ossorio, Fernando Lozano, Rosario Moreno Soldevila and Cristina Rosillo-Lopez. The second Volume with 10 contributions focuses on the characters that populate the Game of Thrones universe and on one of the most salient features of their interaction: violence and warfare. It analyses these questions from a multidisciplinary perspective that is chiefly based on Classical Studies. The book is divided into two sections. The first section explores Martin's characters as the mainstay of both the novels and the TV series, since the author has peopled his universe with three-dimensional intriguing characters that resonate with the reader/audience. The second section is devoted to violence and warfare, both pervasive in the Game of Thrones universe. In particular, the TV series' depiction of violence is explicit, going beyond the limits that have seldom been traversed in primetime television i.e. the execution of Ned Stark, the "Red Wedding" and "Battle of the Bastards". In the Game of Thrones universe, violence is not only restricted to warfare but is an everyday occurrence, a result of the social and gender inequalities characterising the world created by Martin. XV,235 Seiten mit einigen Farb- und s/w-Abb., gebunden (Palgrave Macmillan 2023). Statt EUR 149,79. Gewicht: 423 g - Gebunden/Gebundene Ausgabe.
