It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations and Student Research in Entomology by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Master’s Project Proposal Insectography: Insects in the World of Fiction By Erin Bauer My proposed Master’s Project is to develop a comprehensive list of fictional works (films/TV episodes, video games, children’s books, and novels) originally published or produced in the United States between 1950 and 2012 about or including insects, spiders, related arthropods (many times anthropomorphized or mutated) and/or entomologists as main characters and playing a major role in the plot. Although the list will encompass both entertaining and educational works, it will not include textbooks or other non-fictional works. It will also not include “fictionalized” accounts of real processes. For example, a book such as Hope for the Flowers, where the story is told from the perspective of the main character, a caterpillar discovering its true nature through metamorphosis, or a book where an insect character learns the importance of friendship, would be included in this list.
