  • James Bond from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    James Bond From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The James Bond series focuses on a fictional British Secret Service agent created in 1953 by writer Ian Fleming, who James Bond featured him in twelve novels and two short­story collections. Since Fleming's death in 1964, eight other authors have written authorised Bond novels or novelizations: Kingsley Amis, Christopher Wood, John Gardner, Raymond Benson, Sebastian Faulks, Jeffery Deaver, William Boyd and Anthony Horowitz. The latest novel is Trigger Mortis by Anthony Horowitz, published in September 2015. Additionally Charlie Higson wrote a series on a young James Bond, and Kate Westbrook wrote three novels based on the diaries of a recurring series character, Moneypenny. The character has also been adapted for television, radio, comic strip, video games and film. The films are the longest continually running film series of all time and have grossed over $7.040 billion in total, making it the fourth­highest­grossing film series to date, which started in 1962 with Dr. No, starring Sean Connery as Bond. As of 2017, there have been twenty­four films in the Eon Productions series. The most recent Bond film, Spectre (2015), stars Daniel Craig in his fourth portrayal of Bond; he is the sixth actor to play Bond in the Eon series. There have also been two independent productions of Bond films: Casino Royale (a 1967 spoof) and Never Say Never Again (a Ian Fleming's image of James Bond; commissioned 1983 remake of an earlier Eon­produced film, Thunderball). In to aid the Daily Express comic strip artists [1] 2015, the franchise was estimated to be worth $19.9 billion, Created Ian Fleming making James Bond one of the highest­grossing media by franchises of all time.

  • The Bond Phenomenon Theorising a Popular Hero – a Retrospective
    The Bond Phenomenon Theorising a Popular Hero – A Retrospective TONY BENNETT My purpose in this article is to raise a series of problems concerning the aims and principles of textual analysis, the means by which it should be conducted, and the claims that can be made for it. I shall do so by considering a range of theoretical problems involved in the study of a cultural phenomenon – “the Bond phenomenon” – defined and constructed in relation to a popular hero. !his might seem to be inventing difficulties where none exists. Isn#t the nature of “the Bond phenomenon” obvious, something that can be regarded as pre-given to analysis by the texts in which Bond functions as a central character% !o some extent, this is true. &et this obviousness conceals certain difficulties and peculiar$ ities. 'or example, if this definition is accepted, it is not easy to determine pre$ cisely where to draw the boundary lines which separate the “texts of Bond” from other texts. !he Bond novels written by 'leming are obvious candidates for in$ clusion. So are the various Bond lms. But how are the relations between these to be construed% And how should the Bond continuation novels written by *ohn +ardner, ,hristopher -ood, .ingsley )mis, and /aymond Benson 0among oth$ ers1 be classi ed and analysed% 'urther, what signi cance should be accorded to Tony Bennett is Research Professor in Social and Cultural Theory in the Institute for Culture and Society at the Uni- versity of Western Sydney. He is a member of the Aus- tralian Academy of the Humanities and of the Academy of the Social Sciences in the UK.
