  • Henry Tudor and Elizabeth of York As Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow
    Facultat de Filosofia i Lletres Memòria del Treball de Fi de Grau Rewriting Historical Characters: Henry Tudor and Elizabeth of York as Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow Maria Antònia Llabrés Font Grau d'Estudis Anglesos Any acadèmic 2018-19 DNI de l’alumne:43472881Y Treball tutelat per José Igor Prieto Arranz Departament de Filologia Espanyola, Moderna i Clàssica S'autoritza la Universitat a incloure aquest treball en el Repositori Autor Tutor Institucional per a la seva consulta en accés obert i difusió en línia, Sí No Sí No amb finalitats exclusivament acadèmiques i d'investigació Paraules clau del treball: reversal gender roles, historical discourse, power, recognition, fantasy Abstract This essay examines the relationship between the historical figures Henry VII and Elizabeth of York, and the fictional characters Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen from the popular TV series Game of Thrones. Through the analysis of the similarities between their lives, this project attempts to prove how both fictional characters are based and influenced by Henry VII and Elizabeth of York. Moreover, there is very little previous literature about the life of Elizabeth of York, obscuring and undermining her important role in putting an end to the Wars of the Roses. Thus, besides proving the relationship between these historical characters and the fictional ones, the aim of this paper is also to emphasise the historical importance given to Elizabeth of York in Game of Thrones by means of using her as a main source of inspiration for two of the most important an relevant characters of the series. As a result, this work also intends to prove how Game of Thrones demolishes gender boundaries by using characteristics of both Henry VII and Elizabeth of York to shape the characters of Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen.

  • Orientalism in G.R.R Martin's a Song of Ice and Fire Deanery's the White
    International Journal of English Literature and Social Sciences, 5(3) May-Jun 2020 |Available online: https://ijels.com/ Orientalism in G.R.R Martin’s a Song of Ice and Fire Deanery’s the White Savior Ghita Mesbah Department of English language and literature “Istanbul Aydin University “ ( Istanbul, turkey) Abstract— Identities, cultural differences, feminism, women in power, racism and so on have always been a controversial concept in most contemporary works. Starting with The Arabian Nights, modern fantasy has lately followed the same pattern of depicting the Oriental "Other". The cultural differences between the East and the West have been theorized by many scholars and critics in numerous works of literary modern studies, with reference to Edward Said’s book,, Orientalism. Said debates that Orientalism is the collateral damage of colonialism, by dominating the East economically, politically and culturally. This collateral damage still exists nowadays; where the patterns of superiority between the West and the East are to be considered. As it is some kind of everlasting unconscious domination, there is no way to dispose of its effects. The West plays the savior's role for the colonized communities; as they are considered helpless and waiting for the support of the West, while facing racial prejudice and religious discrimination The reasons why I have chosen this topic are the exotic representation of the characters' traits and the political and social structures in the series. This is compelling because the world of A Song of Ice and Fire is a secondary one, where reality should be less featured. I argue that this subgenre does not belong to the world of enchantment and magic.

R. Martinin fantasiakirjasarjassa A Song of Ice and Fire (suom. Tulen ja jään laulu). Tarkoituksena on erityisesti selvittää, miten kirjojen kieli poikkeaa tavanomaisesta englannin kielestä, ja miten kielen poikkeavat muodot puolestaan toimivat keskiaikaisen fantasiamaailman rakennuspalikoina. Susan Mandalan (2010) mukaan kielellinen tyyli on jäänyt lapsipuolen asemaan tieteis- ja fantasiakirjallisuuden tutkimuksessa: kieltä on lähes poikkeuksetta pidetty tavanomaisena tai heikkona, ja sen roolia on myös vähätelty. Mandalan mukaan tällaiset käsitykset ovat perusteettomina, ja hänen mielestään toimiva tyyli on todella tärkeässä roolissa nimenomaan näissä genreissä, sillä se on oleellinen osa muun muassa uskottavien vaihtoehtoismaailmojen luomista. Kirjojen maailma on keskiaikainen,

  • Fire Vs Flame Warm Fire AGOT, Tyrion II: Tyrion Pulled out the Stopper, Tilted His Head, and Squeezed a Long Stream Into His Mouth
    Appendix: Fire vs Flame Warm fire AGOT, Tyrion II: Tyrion pulled out the stopper, tilted his head, and squeezed a long stream into his mouth. The wine was cool fire as it trickled down his throat and warmed his belly. He held out the skin to Jon Snow. "Want some?" AGOT, Tyrion III: Mormont scarcely seemed to hear him. The old man warmed his hands before the fire. AGOT, Tyrion III: He shoved his hands into his armpits and walked faster, praying that Morrec had remembered to warm his bed with hot bricks from the fire. AGOT, Dany III: "A trader from Qarth once told me that dragons came from the moon," blond Doreah said as she warmed a towel over the fire. AGOT, Tyrion IV: I was about to settle down to a warm fire and a roast fowl, and that wretched singer had to open his mouth, he thought mournfully. AGOT, Cat VI: he commander, an anxious young knight with a pockmarked face, offered bread and cheese and the chance to warm themselves before his fire, but Mya declined. AGOT, Tyrion VI: "If so, I prefer to die comfortable," Tyrion replied. "We need a fire. The nights are cold up here, and hot food will warm our bellies and lift our spirits.” ACOK, Davos I: The Myrmen swapped jokes as they enjoyed the warmth of the fire, but young Lord Bar Emmon had turned a splotchy grey, and Lord Velaryon was watching the king rather than the conflagration. ACOK, Jon III: "Oh." Sam did not look anxious to meet Craster, even if it meant a warm fire.
