Det är därför väsentligt att se mångfaldiga och realistiska queera karaktärer i litteratur och massmedia, och i synnerhet är det viktigt att tänka på hur dessa karaktärer förnyar eller raserar queera stereotyper och queerfobiska ideologier som ännu råder i vårt samhälle. I denna pro gradu-avhandling granskar jag hur queera identiteter och maskuliniteter representeras i Cassandra Clares bokserie The Mortal Instruments och dess TV-adaptation Shadowhunters. Jag fokuserar på karaktärernas utveckling, personliga intriger och deras inter-queera interaktioner, och hävdar att TV-adaptationen med dess mångfaldigare och subversivare skildring av queerhet skapar och reproducerar mer positiv representation än bokserien, som skildrar skadliga och problematiska stereotyper. Mitt material består av alla sex The Mortal Instruments-böcker och 41 avsnitt ur de tre första säsongerna av Shadowhunters. I min analys utnyttjar jag genusvetenskaplig maskulinitetsforskning, feministisk litteraturvetenskap, feministisk media- och kommunikationsvetenskap samt adaptionsstudier.

Simon's Heroic Journey in Cassandra Clare's The
VEDA’S JOURNAL OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE (JOELL) Vol.3 Issue 4 An International Peer Reviewed Journal 2016 http://www.joell.in RESEARCH ARTICLE SIMON’S HEROIC JOURNEY IN CASSANDRA CLARE’S THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS *1 2 G. Sharmely , Dr. V. Chanthiramathi 1* (Ph. D Research Scholar , PG & Research Department of English V.O. Chidambaram College, Thoothukudi – 8) 2(Associate Professor of English, PG & Research Department of English V.O. Chidambaram College, Thoothukudi – 8) ABSTRACT In recent young adult urban fantasy literature, the heroic character and the heroic journey have become one of the most important elements, as supernatural and futuristic elements allow exploration of all kinds of traits and decisions that create the idealized state which heroes represent. Frequently, the protagonist is unwilling to be a champion, or is of low or timid origin. Though events are mostly beyond their control, the protagonists are thrust into points of huge importance where their caliber is proved in a number of divine and physical challenges. The several tasks presented throughout the hero’s journey transform the characters into heroes. Simon, one of the protagonists of The Mortal Instruments is originally introduced as a mundane to the Shadow World. My paper explores Simon’s heroic journey from a mundane to a vampire and then later to a Daylighter. Though in the end of the novel series, Simon’s immortality was taken away, along with his memories by making him into a mundane again, the author Cassandra Clare shows Simon’s gradual journey of becoming a hero throughout the series. Keywords: Young adult literature, Urban fantasy, Heroic journey, Shadow hunters, Vampires.

The Heroic Journey of Tessa Gray in Cassandra Clare's the Infernal Devices
International Journal of Linguistics and Literature (IJLL) ISSN(P): 2319-3956; ISSN(E): 2319-3964 Vol. 5, Issue 5, Aug - Sep 2016; 39-44 © IASET THE HEROIC JOURNEY OF TESSA GRAY IN CASSANDRA CLARE’S THE INFERNAL DEVICES G. SHARMELY Ph. D Research Scholar, P.G & Research, Department of English, V.O. Chidambaram College, Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu, India ABSTRACT Fantasy is a genre where heroes can show off their skills and earn respect through feats such as defeating dragons, reaching their destinations unscathed while being hunted by armies, and solving prophecies that tell how the enemy can be defeated. The heroine stands between several roles, that of a special person who has the power to defeat dark forces and as a fighter who trusts only herself. Modern heroines are warriors who fight on their own. Cassandra Clare, a famous fantasy writer worked for several years as an entertainment journalist for the Hollywood Reporter before turning her attention to fiction. This article attempts to explore the heroine’s journey of the protagonist Tessa Gray in Cassandra Clare’s The Infernal Devices . KEYWORDS: Chosen One, Fantasy, Heroic Journey, Monomyth, Shadowhunters, Steampunk Novel, The Infernal Devices, Young Adult INTRODUCTION The heroic character has become one of the most important elements, as supernatural and futuristic elements allow exploration of all kinds of traits and decisions that create the idealized state which heroes represent. The several tasks presented throughout the hero’s journey transform the characters into heroes. Heroine’s journeys are also common in fantasy, produced mainly in fairytales rather than in the longer epics.

R. Civ. P. 12(b)(2) and 12(b)(6), to dismiss the Complaint of Plaintiff Sherrilyn Kenyon (“Plaintiff” or “Kenyon”) (ECF Doc. No 1) in its entirety. I. PRELIMINARY STATEMENT This lawsuit is another example of an unfortunate and all-too-common blight on the creative fields: a successful author (or songwriter, film producer, etc.) is sued by a disgruntled would-be competitor on trumped-up claims for the purpose of cashing in on the success of that author. Tens of millions of Clare’s books—fantasy derived principally by the Judeo-Christian narrative (e.g., young heroes who are the progeny of angels) aimed at teenagers and young adults—have been sold over a decade and been turned into a major motion picture, titled The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (the “Movie”) and a television series, titled Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments (the “Television Series”). Kenyon, who has been in print since the {01378372.2 } Case 3:16-cv-00191 Document 18 Filed 04/25/16 Page 1 of 26 PageID #: 112 1990’s and first enjoyed some success (albeit not of the magnitude of Clare) with self-described “sexy” adult novels featuring adult heroes drawn from Greek mythology who engage in explicitly adult activities.1 Aware of Clare’s use of the term “Shadowhunters” since at least 2007, Kenyon admittedly did not allege that Clare had infringed on her “Dark-Hunter” adult book series before bringing suit in February 2016.

Cassandra Clare Q&A
Q&A Contact: Rhalee Hughes rhalee hughes public relations + marketing 212.260.2244 [email protected] CASSANDRA CLARE Q&A LADY MIDNIGHT: BOOK ONE THE DARK ARTIFICES, A Shadowhunters Novel by Cassandra Clare; McElderry/ S&S; Hardcover Fiction; $24.99;On Sale March 8, 2016; 720 pages; Ages 14 and up; ISBN: 9781442468351 Q: Lady Midnight is a Shadowhunters novel, however it is also book one in a new series: The Dark Artifices. Can someone who has not read previous Shadowhunter books start with Lady Midnight? Cassandra Clare: Absolutely. I think of it as like Star Wars: The Force Awakens. If you’ve seen the previous Star Wars movies, it helps, and you’ll be happy to see familiar characters again. If not, then the film works just fine as a great adventure movie on its own and those characters are introduced with enough backstory to explain who they are. And the focus is on the new cast, that everyone will be getting to know in Lady Midnight. Q: Fans of your books are chomping at the bit for Lady Midnight. Can you share five things that they should look forward to in advance of grabbing a copy on March 8th? CC: 1) The solution to long-running mysteries like why you can’t fall in love with your parabatai, your warrior partner. 2) A fun new heroine in Emma, who is a bit reckless and driven by a desire for revenge. 3) A whole bunch of new characters to know and love, including the huge Blackthorn family, who are like all great families, big and messy and loving and would die for each other.

Clockwork PRINCESS CASSANDRA CLARE THE INFERNAL DEVICES BOOK THREE READING GROUP GUIDE About This Book Great things are afoot at the London Institute. Tessa and Jem are preparing for their wedding. Charlotte and Henry are expecting a baby. Cecily Herondale and Gideon Lightwood have joined the Institute’s ranks. Jessamine is coming home. And no longer believing himself to be cursed, Will can finally open his heart to love. But despite the causes for celebration, everyone is weighed down by a sense of pervasive gloom. Mortmain is still out there somewhere, biding his time before he strikes again, Consul Wayland is undermining Charlotte’s leadership, and Tessa knows that her happiness with Jem comes with a price—Will’s heart. When Mortmain’s clockwork automatons attack the Institute, leaving behind injury and confusion and death, the Shadowhunters must fight for everything they’ve ever believed in or held dear. Tessa and her friends must find Mortmain and stop him, or risk losing Jem, the Institute, their lives…and even the world as they know it. Discussion Questions 1. Cassandra Clare begins the book with a stanza from Alfred, Lord Tennyson’s poem “In Memoriam A.H.H.” What is this poem about? In what ways does the overarching message of this poem fit with the events and themes of lockworkC Princess? 2. When Jem and Will first meet as boys of twelve, Jem tells Will not to “be ordinary like that. Don’t say you’re sorry.” Is either boy ordinary?

Intertextuality in Cassandra Clare's Shadowhunter Chronicles Marta
FACULTAD de FILOSOFÍA Y LETRAS DEPARTAMENTO de FILOLOGÍA INGLESA Grado en Estudios Ingleses TRABAJO DE FIN DE GRADO “All the Stories Are True”: Intertextuality in Cassandra Clare’s Shadowhunter Chronicles Marta San Román Villar Tutor: Carlos Herrero Quirós 2017/2018 2 ABSTRACT The postmodern dictum that all texts are in fact inter-texts inevitably developing from preexisting references seems to be particularly apt to describe the modus operandi of contemporary popular writers who have built entire fictional worlds on previous works of literature. Such is the case of Judith Lewis, better known by her pen name Cassandra Clare. A close look at the novels she has published so far will unveil a complex network of intertextual connections that range from textual references to plot and character parallelisms. Her Shadowhunter Chronicles comprise a world in which Milton’s demons are destroyed by Dickensian characters and Edgar Allan Poe’s poem “Annabel Lee” tells a tragic but real love story that ultimately leads to a series of murders and necromancy. The present graduation project traces this meshwork of allusions and intertextual ties in Clare’s best-selling young adult fiction. Keywords: intertextuality, influence, Cassandra Clare, Paradise Lost, A Tale of Two Cities, “Annabel Lee” RESUMEN El aforismo postmodernista que estableció que todos los textos son en realidad intertextos, desarrollados a partir de referencias a textos ya existentes, parece perfectamente adecuado para describir el modus operandi de muchos escritores contemporáneos que construyen mundos ficticios basados en obras previas de literatura. Es este el caso de Judith Lewis, más conocida como Cassandra Clare. Un escrutinio atento de las novelas que ha publicado hasta ahora revelará una compleja red de conexiones intertextuales que abarcan desde referencias textuales hasta paralelismos de la trama y los personajes.
