Hbo Premieres the Third Season of Game of Thrones HBO PREMIERES THE THIRD SEASON OF GAME OF THRONES The new season will premiere simultaneously with the United States on March 31st Miami, FL, March 18, 2013 – The battle for the Iron Throne among the families who rule the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros continues in the third season of the HBO original series, Game of Thrones. Winner of two Emmys® 2011 and six Golden Globes® 2012, the series is based on the famous fantasy books “A Song of Ice and Fire” by George R.R. Martin. HBO Latin America will premiere the third season simultaneously with the United States on March 31st. Many of the events that occurred in the first two seasons will culminate violently, with several of the main characters confronting their destinies. But new challengers for the Iron Throne rise from the most unexpected places. Characters old and new must navigate the demands of family, honor, ambition, love and – above all – survival, as the Westeros civil war rages into autumn. The Lannisters hold absolute dominion over King’s Landing after repelling Stannis Baratheon’s forces, yet Robb Stark –King of the North– still controls much of the South, having yet to lose a battle. In the Far North, Mance Rayder (new character portrayed by Ciaran Hinds) has united the wildlings into the largest army Westeros has ever seen. Only the Night’s Watch stands between him and the Seven Kingdoms. Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen – reunited with her three growing dragons – ventures into Slaver’s Bay in search of ships to take her home and allies to conquer it. New cast members for the third season include Diana Rigg as Lady Olenna Tyrell; Mackenzie Crook as Orell; Clive Russell as Bryndon “The Blackfish” Tully; Nathalie Emannuel as Missandei; Kerry Ingram as Shireen Baratheon; Paul Kaye as Thoros of Myr; Thomas Brodie-Sangster as Jojen Reed; Ellie Kendrick as Meera Reed; Richard Dormer as Beric Dondarrion; Kristofer Hivju as Tormund Giantsbane; Philip McGinley as Anguy; Tara Fitzgerald as Selyse Baratheon; Tobias Menzies as Edmure Tully; Anton Lesser as Qyburn; Ian McElhinney as Barristan Selmy; Michael McElhatton as Roose Bolton and Noah Taylor as Locke.

  • Representações Femininas Em Game of Thrones: Mediações Entre Os Sete Reinos E a Contemporaneidade
    Representações femininas em Game of Thrones: mediações entre os Sete Reinos e a Contemporaneidade Representações femininas em Game of Thrones: mediações entre os Sete Reinos e a Contemporaneidade1 Andréa Corneli Ortis Doutoranda; Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Santa Maria, RS, Brasil ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9865-8411 Flavi Ferreira Lisbôa Filho Doutor; Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Santa Maria, RS, Brasil ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4307-9401 Resumo A presente pesquisa questiona como são representadas as identidades femininas da personagem Sansa Stark, de Game of Thrones, e quais sentidos sobre o feminino contemporâneo são mobilizados pela série. Para isso, buscamos observar nosso objeto através da categoria personagem e interações por meio da análise textual proposta por Casetti e Chio (1999). Após isso, acionamos o conceito de mediação, advindo de um cotejamento entre Williams (1979), Orózco-Gómez (1997) e Martín-Barbero (2001), por meio das categorias gênero, competência e moralidade pública, e percebemos que a série busca problematizar tipos de violência que acontecem na contemporaneidade em relação ao feminino, como sexual, psicológica ou física, casamento infantil e mulher como moeda de troca. Assim, ao longo das temporadas, a personagem é retratada de modo a ascender, porém somente após passar por inúmeros tipos de violência. Portanto, os sentidos negociados entre a ficção e a realidade presentes em Sansa, na série, são formadas de acordo com o ambiente em que vive, valores sociais e privados impostos pela sociedade. Palavras-chave Identidade feminina. Gênero. Representação. Mediações. Game of Thrones. 1 Introdução É cada vez mais difícil tornar-se mulher na sociedade contemporânea, fato que vai de encontro aos tantos anos de lutas que foram travadas para tentar vivermos de maneira 1 Este trabalho é um recorte da dissertação de mestrado de mesmo título.

  • Non-Conforming Femininity in Game of Thrones: an Analysis of Arya Stark and Brienne of Tarth
    Dearcadh: Graduate Journal of Gender, Globalisation and Rights Volume 1, 2020 DOI: 10.13025/4nzq-hb04 URL: https://doi.org/10.13025/4nzq-hb04 ORIGINAL ARTICLE________________________________ Non-Conforming Femininity in Game of Thrones: An Analysis of Arya Stark and Brienne of Tarth Trejo Morales, Cristina M.A. Gender, Globalisation, and Rights National University of Ireland, Galway Abstract The male gaze is a theory that was developed by Laura Mulvey (1975), addressing the objectification of women in classic Hollywood films. While the male gaze is highly criticized, it is still applicable today and is presented in the representation of women in current media, like the television show Game of Thrones. The power of the male gaze can be seen in the female character’s nudity, the sexual violence directed towards female characters, and how women access political power through sexuality and fertility (Ferreday, 2015; Genz, 2016; Frankel, 2014). While women in Game of Thrones are not powerless, their access to power is through conforming to typical forms of femininity, which means that their access to power is restrained and controlled. However, not all female characters conform to gender ideals, like Arya Stark and Brienne of Tarth. The objective of this paper is to examine how the male gaze can account for the treatment of non-gender-conforming female characters in Game of Thrones, using feminist qualitative content analysis. Looking at non-gender- conforming characters is critical to understanding the diverse ways the male gaze is used to punish female characters, coercing them into femininity. Based on the analysis undertaken as part of a MA thesis, this paper found that although non-gender- conforming female characters were given more liberties than female characters in Game of Thrones, they were still subjected to the control, coercion, and discipline of the male gaze, even if in non-sexual ways.
