Reprezentacija žensk in LGBTQ skupnosti v fenovski literaturi o Harryju Potterju: Odstopanja od kanona in preference v knjižnih objavah

Svetina, Urška (author), Krevel, Mojca (mentor)

Magistrsko delo obravnava fenomen fenovske literature in reprezentacije žensk in LGBTQ skupnosti znotraj fenovske skupnosti Harryja Potterja. Delo se sprva osredotoča na trende fenovske literature na splošno, opravi pregled zgodovine fenovske literature od antike do danes in opredeli fenomen Harryja Potterja ter razloge za priljubljenost fenovskih zgodb znotraj te fenovske skupnosti. Po pregledu trendov v zgodbah zgodb oboževalcev, delo skuša ugotoviti, ali so ženske in skupnost LGBTQ med najbolj reprezentiranimi v fenovski literaturi. Delo skuša odgovoriti na vprašanje, če se trendi v fenovski literaturi odražajo tudi v zgodbah, ki so naknadno izdane v knjižnih izdajah.
