  • Many Faces of Albus Dumbledore in the Setting of Fan Writing
    MANY FACES OF ALBUS DUMBLEDORE IN THE SETTING OF FAN WRITING: THE TRANSFORMATION OF READERS INTO “READER-WRITERS” AND THE IMPLICATIONS OF THEIR PRESENCE IN THE AGE OF ONLINE FANDOM by Midori Fujita A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Children’s Literature) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) October 2014 © Midori Fujita, 2014 ii Abstract This thesis examines the dynamic and changing nature of reader response in the time of online fandom by examining fan reception of, and response to, the character Dumbledore in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series. Using the framework of reader reception theory established by Wolfgang Iser, in particular Iser’s conception of textual indeterminacies, to construct my critical framework, this work examines Professor Albus Dumbledore as a case study in order to illuminate and explore how both the text and readers may contribute to the identity formation of a single character. The research examines twenty-one selected Internet-based works of fan writing. These writings are both analytical and imaginative, and compose a selection that illuminates what aspect of Dumbledore’s characters inspired readers’ critical reflection and inspired their creative re-construction of the original story. This thesis further examines what the flourishing presence of Harry Potter fan community tells us about the role technological progress has played and is playing in reshaping the dynamics of reader response. Additionally, this research explores the blurring boundaries between authors and readers in light of the blooming culture of fan fiction writing.

  • Chapter Four Dumbledore’S Queer Ghost Homosexuality and Its Heterosexual Afterlives in J
    Chapter Four Dumbledore’s Queer Ghost Homosexuality and Its Heterosexual Afterlives in J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter Novels When do the dead truly die? Jacques Derrida cautions against the presump- tion that the dead can be put to rest: “Vigilance, therefore: the cadaver is per- haps not as dead, as simply dead as the conjuration tries to delude us into believing.” He proceeds to suggest that ghosts register long after their passing and to act despite their absence: “The one who has disappeared appears still to be there, and his apparition is not nothing. It does not do nothing. Assuming that the remains can be identifi ed, we know better than ever today that the dead must be able to work. And to cause to work, perhaps more than ever.”1 For readers of J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series, Derrida’s words might call to mind the untimely passing of Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumb- ledore, Order of Merlin (First Class), Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Supreme Mugwump of the International Confed- eration of Wizards, and Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot (BB x–xi).2 Despite his self-sacrifi cial death at the conclusion of Half-Blood Prince, Dumbledore continues to function both textually and metatextually after his demise, most notably due to Rowling’s surprising announcement of his homosexuality. Dumbledore’s work throughout and beyond the Harry Potter series includes guiding Harry to heroic and heteronormative masculinity, and his ghostly model of queer masculinity provides a touchstone hermeneutic for under- standing Rowling’s confl icted treatment of childhood innocence as a theme in her novels.

  • About the Harry Potter Alliance Introducing Imagine Better
    About The Harry Potter Alliance The Harry Potter Alliance (HPA) uses parallels from Harry Potter to inspire hundreds of thousands of Harry Potter fans to act as heroes in our world. The HPA has sent five cargo planes to Haiti, donated over 88,000 books across the world, and has made signi!cant contributions to the anti-genocide, LGBTQ equality, environmental, and media reform movements. Currently the organization is in discussion with the CEO of Warner Bros. to make all Harry Potter chocolate Fair Trade.
