  • 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.

  • Yer a Reader, Harry: HP Reread Podcasts As Digital Reading Communities
    . Volume 16, Issue 1 May 2019 Yer a reader, Harry: HP Reread Podcasts as digital reading communities Hannah McGregor, Simon Fraser University, Canada Abstract: The emergence of reread podcasts – in which hosts revisit a favourite book or series, inviting listeners to reread alongside them – offers insight into new digital reading communities that often emerge around active fandoms. Focusing on the popular sub-genre of Harry Potter reread podcasts, this paper asks what lessons these new reading communities can teach us about the practice of rereading, the capacity of podcasts to create new kinds of interactive publics, the link between podcasts and fan communities, and the roles these podcasts play in readers’ lives. Interactive and participatory yet structured around the expertise of the host, reread podcasts have the potential to become pedagogical and thus transformative online spaces. Keywords: Harry Potter; podcasts; fandom; rereading; reading communities The world of digital reading encompasses blogs, Goodreads pages, social media feeds and fan fiction archives – but a particularly understudied facet of contemporary digital reading is the ever-growing genre of reread podcasts. In this genre, hosts revisit a favourite book or series, inviting listeners to reread alongside them. While the hosts offer their own commentary, they also encourage response and engagement from listeners, framing themselves as both expert commentators and fellow readers – and, usually, fans. This paper considers the unique digital reading communities that have emerged around Harry Potter (HP) reread podcasts, including Harry Potter and the Sacred Text, Potterless Podcast, and my own podcast, Witch, Please. Writing from the perspective of a producer, a reader, a fan, and an academic – a member of this reading community in all ways – I’m interested in how reread podcasts frame the cultural role of the Harry Potter series while encouraging interactive and self-reflexive communities of interpretation.

The decision of the Examining Committee is by majority vote. External Examiner Katherine Larsen Teaching Assistant Professor Supervisor(s) Neil Randall Associate Professor Internal Member Aimée Morrison Associate Professor Internal-external Member Nicolas Gauthier Assistant Professor Other Member(s) Beth Coleman Associate Professor ii Author’s Declaration: I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. iii Abstract: Made public on LiveJournal between 2004 and 2008, Shoebox Project (SBP) is a multimedia fanfic written by ladyjaida and dorkorific. The plot takes place before that of the Harry Potter novels, detailing the last two years of Hogwarts for the Marauders – Remus, Sirius, James, and Peter – conveying its narrative through prose, dialogue, handwritten letters, handwritten notes, pictures, and hand drawn sketches. SBP represents evidence of its authors negotiating of Remus Lupin. Specifically, through the layered processes of reading and writing, dorkorific and ladyjaida interpret and construct their understanding of authorship and their perception of the Potterverse. In so doing, they make clear the inherent fluidity of these concepts. However, despite the fluidity so central to SBP and to its fannish context, ladyjaida and dorkorific also work to actively reiterate binaries around gender, sex, and desire in their construction of Remus and Sirius’s sexuality.
