Fandom, Second Edition
A completely updated edition of a seminal work on fans and how fandom shapes the culture, social relations, economic models, and politics of our age. We are all fans. Whether we follow our favorite celebrities on Twitter, attend fan conventions such as Comic Con, or simply wait with bated breath for the next episode of our favorite television drama—each of us is a fan. Recognizing that fandom is not unusual, but rather a universal subculture, the contributions in this book demonstrate that understanding fans—whether of toys, TV shows, celebrities, comics, music, film, or politicians—is vital to an understanding of media audiences, use, engagement, and participatory culture in a digital age. Including eighteen new, original essays covering topics such as activism directed at racism in sports fandom, fan/producer interactions at Comic Con, the impact of new technologies on fandom, and the politics and legality of fanfic, this wide-ranging collection provides diverse approaches to fandom for anyone seeking to understand modern life in our increasingly mediated, globalized and binge-watching world. "An excellent collection, the second edition of Fandom continues to push the boundaries of fan studies in bold directions. Reflecting the new developments in the field, this lively, engaging, and high-quality volume will be the go-to book for anyone engaged with the future of fan culture." —Jason Mittell, Middlebury College "This new edition of Fandom takes fan studies in exciting new directions, providing a crucial intervention into the way the field is evolving. Thought-provoking and mature, it will change the way we think about the next generation of fan scholarship. A fantastic book." —Paul Booth, author of Digital Fandom 2.0 and Playing Fans
Fandom
Looks beyond television and film to literature and music to examine fans, their practices and their favorite texts. This work contains a selection of 25 essays that examine instances across the spectrum of modern cultural consumption from Karl Marx to Paris Hilton, Bach fugues to Bollywood cinema, and 19th-century concert halls to computer gaming.
