Abstract

Katniss Everdeen, fougueuse rebelle de la trilogie Hunger Games, réincarnation pop de Diane chasseresse, écrit une contre-histoire des États-Unis à l’encre de son arc. Dans la trilogie de Suzanne Collins, débutée en 2008 et portée avec succès à l’écran, l’Amérique régresse et apparaît comme un reflet tordu de la République de Rome. Les ors baroques du Capitole rappellent les rêves de grandeur dévastateurs de Napoléon, des fascistes italiens ou même des nazis tandis que la plongée dystopique évoque tant les affres de la Grande Dépression que les mouvements de contestation de la Guerre du Vietnam. Mais l’insoumission de la « fille du feu » se vit au présent. Car au-delà des références mythologiques et littéraires (Thésée, Roméo et Juliette), le récit de Katniss Everdeen est celui d’une jeune femme combattive, loyale et déterminée, délivrée des diktats du patriarcat, une gladiatrice des temps modernes qui, quelque part entre la forêt de Sherwood et l’île de Koh-Lanta, inspire avec son salut à trois doigts tous ceux qui refusent la tyrannie.

Abstract

"In this selective overview of scholarship generated by 'The Hunger Games' - the young adult dystopian fiction and film series which has won popular and critical acclaim - Zhange Ni showcases various investigations into the entanglement of religion and the arts in the new millennium. Ni introduces theories, methods, and the latest developments in the study of religion in relation to politics, audio/visual art, new media, material culture, and popular culture, whilst also reading 'The Hunger Games' as a story that explores the variety, complexity, and ambiguity of enchantment. In popular texts such as this, religion and art - both broadly construed, that is, beyond conventional boundaries - converge in creating an enchantment that makes life more bearable and effects change in the world"--

Abstract

Ce mémoire explore l'intersection de la mode et de la dystopie cinématographique à travers une analyse approfondie des costumes. En se concentrant sur des films emblématiques tels que The Matrix, Blade Runner et The Hunger Games, cette étude examine comment les vêtements participent activement à la construction des mondes dystopiques. L'étude se penche également sur la manière dont la mode dans les films dystopiques reflète et critique les évolutions sociétales et technologiques.

Abstract

The Hunger Games trilogy is a popular culture success. Embraced by adults as well as adolescents, Suzanne Collins’s bestselling books have inspired an equally popular film franchise. But what, if anything, can reading the Hunger Games tell us about what it means to be human in the world today? What complex social and political issues does the trilogy invite readers to explore? Does it merely entertain, or does it also instruct? Bringing together scholars in literacy education and the humanities, The Politics of Panem: Challenging Genres examines how the Hunger Games books and films, when approached from the standpoint of theory, can challenge readers and viewers intellectually. At the same time, by subjecting Collins’s trilogy to literary criticism, this collection of essays challenges its complexity as an example of dystopian literature for adolescents. How can applying philosophic frameworks such as those attributable to Socrates and Foucault to the Hunger Games trilogy deepen our appreciation for the issues it raises? What, if anything, can we learn from considering fan responses to the Hunger Games? How might adapting the trilogy for film complicate its ability to engage in sharp-edged social criticism? By exploring these and other questions, The Politics of Panem: Challenging Genres invites teachers, students, and fans of the Hunger Games to consider how Collins’s trilogy, as a representative of young adult dystopian fiction, functions as a complex narrative. In doing so, it highlights questions and issues that lend themselves to critical exploration in secondary and college classrooms.

Abstract

"The Embodied Child: Readings in Children's Literature and Culture brings together essays that offer compelling analyses of children's bodies as they read and are read, as they interact with literature and other cultural artifacts, and as they are constructed in literature and popular culture. The chapters examine the ideology behind the cultural constructions of the child's body and the impact they have on society, and how the child's body becomes a carrier of cultural ideology within the cultural imagination. They also consider the portrayal of children's bodies in terms of the seeming dichotomies between healthy-vs-unhealthy bodies as well as able-bodied-vs-disabled, and examines flesh-and-blood bodies that engage with literary texts and other media. The contributors bring perspectives from anthropology, communication, education, literary criticism, cultural studies, philosophy, physical education, and religious studies. With wide and astute coverage of disparate literary and cultural texts, and lively scholarly discussions in the introductions to the collection and to each section, this book makes a long-needed contribution to discussions of the body and the child.
