Comparing Depictions of Empowered Women Between a Game of Thrones Novel and Television Series
Journal of Student Research (2012) Volume 1, Issue 3: pp. 14-21 Research Article A Game of Genders: Comparing Depictions of Empowered Women between A Game of Thrones Novel and Television Series Rebecca Jonesa The main women in George R. R. Martin's novel Game of Thrones, first published in 1996, and the adapted television series in 2011, are empowered female figures in a world dominated by male characters. Analyzing shifts in the characters’ portrayals between the two media conveys certain standards of the cultures for which they are intended. While in the novel the characters adhere to a different set of standards for women, the television series portrays these women as more sympathetic, empowered, and realistic with respect to contemporary standards. Using literary archetypes of queen, hero, mother, child, maiden and warrior and applying them to Cersei Lannister, Catelyn Stark, Arya Stark, Sansa Stark, and Daenerys Targeryen, provides a measure for the differences in their presentations. Through the archetypical lens, the shifts in societal and cultural standards between the novel and series’ airing make apparent the changing pressures and expectations for women. By reading the novel and watching the series with these archetypes in mind, the changes in gender norms from 1996 to 2011 become clear. The resulting shift shows the story’s advances in the realm of fantasy in relation to the American society that consumes it. Keywords: English, Film Studies, Women and Gender Studies 1. Introduction The genre of fantasy has a long and sordid history in its differences in portrayal between the two media, utilizing the depictions of women.

‘I watch it for historic reasons.’ Representation and reception of the Middle Ages in A Song of Ice and Fire’ and ‘Game of Thrones’ Riccardo Facchini Práticas da História, n.º 4 (2017): 43-73 www.praticasdahistoria.pt Práticas da História, n.º 5 (2017): 43-73 Riccardo Facchini ‘I watch it for historic reasons.’ Representation and reception of the Middle Ages in A Song of Ice and Fire’ and ‘Game of Thrones’ This article aims to analyse several ideas of the Middle Ages that inspired HBO’s TV show Game of Thrones (HBO 2011-), based on George R. R. Martin’s ongoing series of novels A Song of Ice and Fire (1996-). The phenomenon will be read through the concept of “medievalism”, i.e. «the representation, the recep- tion and the post-medieval use of the Middle Ages» (di Carpeg- na Falconieri 2011). After a short introduction concerning the Middle Ages and cinema, I will analyse the new way in which Martin represents and perceives medieval times. This different approach places in the medieval era the disillusionment and the alleged absence of values typical of postmodern times, often hidden behind the notion of historical “realism”. The result is a rejection of the neo-medieval romantic idealization of the Midd- le Ages that characterized most twentieth-century productions. Keywords: Medievalism, Middle Ages, Game of Thrones, A Song of Ice and Fire, Fantasy. “I watch it for historic reasons”: Representação e receção da Idade Média em As Crónicas de Gelo e Fogo e Guerra dos Tronos Este artigo analisa as diversas perceções da Idade Média que inspiraram a série televisiva da HBO Guerra dos Tronos (HBO 2011-), baseada na série de livros de George R.
