D., tomando o personagem principal como figura estética que simboliza o status existencial humano da época presente e as narrativas da produção como mitologias existenciais contemporâneas. Afirma-se o desencantamento como possibilidade teológica de ressignificação da identidade humana, a partir da discussão a respeito da condição humana, das experiências de fé retratadas no seriado e da perspectiva de resgate de sentido existencial diante da realidade da morte. No primeiro capítulo apresenta-se a série e seus personagens, enfatizando-se a figura do protagonista Gregory House. No segundo capítulo elabora-se um quadro referencial teológico a partir de determinados pontos da produção intelectual de Paul Tillich e Jürgen Moltmann. No terceiro capítulo discute-se a condição humana, enfatinzando-se a experiência da alteridade como superação de uma ética deontológica. No quarto capítulo reflete-se sobre experiências de fé retratadas no seriado, enfatizando-se a dimensão religiosa como abertura a um horizonte absoluto de ressignificação da vida. No quinto capítulo, através de uma análise narrativa do episódio final do seriado, apresenta-se a experiência do morrer como desencantamento final e possibilidade de sentido para a conclusão da vida. Palavras-chave: House. Cultura Pop. Desencantamento. Condição Humana. Fé. 14 ABSTRACT This is a theological reading of the House M.D. serial, using the main character as an esthetic figure which symbolizes the human existential status of current times and the narratives of the production as contemporary existential mythologies. Disenchantment is affirmed as a theological possibility of re-signifying the human identity based on the discussion about the human condition, the faith experiences pictured in the serial and the perspective of the recovery of existential meaning faced with the reality of death. In the first chapter the serial and its characters are presented, emphasizing the protagonist, Gregory House. In the second chapter a theological referential framework is elaborated based on certain points of the intellectual production of Paul Tillich and Jürgen Moltmann. In the third chapter the human condition is discussed emphasizing the experience of otherness as an overcoming of deontological ethics. In the fourth chapter the religious dimension is emphasized as an opening to an absolute horizon of re-signification of life. In the fifth chapter, through a narrative analysis of the final episode of the serial, the experience of dying is presented as a final disenchantment and a possibility of meaning for life´s end.

    Understanding Lesbian Fandom: A Case Study of the Xena: Warrior Princess (XSTT) Lesbian Internet Fans by Rosalind Maria Hanmer A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY American and Canadian Studies The University of Birmingham December 2010 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract This thesis is written to promote and pursue an understanding of lesbian fandom and its function on the Internet. It will demonstrate how a particular television text Xena: Warrior Princess (X: WP) and a dedicated online fandom „xenasubtexttalk‟ (XSTT) of diverse lesbian fan membership gained empowerment and agency through their fan practices. Since the screening of the television fantasy series X: WP (1995-2001), there has been a marked increase in academic enquiry into lesbian fan culture on the Internet. This thesis contributes to the lesbian spectatorship of fandom with a specific interest in online fandom. This research suggests there are many readings of X: WP and the dedicated websites set up to discuss the series have increased during and post the series broadcast period.
