  • Hbo Premieres the Third Season of Game of Thrones
    HBO PREMIERES THE THIRD SEASON OF GAME OF THRONES The new season will premiere simultaneously with the United States on March 31st Miami, FL, March 18, 2013 – The battle for the Iron Throne among the families who rule the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros continues in the third season of the HBO original series, Game of Thrones. Winner of two Emmys® 2011 and six Golden Globes® 2012, the series is based on the famous fantasy books “A Song of Ice and Fire” by George R.R. Martin. HBO Latin America will premiere the third season simultaneously with the United States on March 31st. Many of the events that occurred in the first two seasons will culminate violently, with several of the main characters confronting their destinies. But new challengers for the Iron Throne rise from the most unexpected places. Characters old and new must navigate the demands of family, honor, ambition, love and – above all – survival, as the Westeros civil war rages into autumn. The Lannisters hold absolute dominion over King’s Landing after repelling Stannis Baratheon’s forces, yet Robb Stark –King of the North– still controls much of the South, having yet to lose a battle. In the Far North, Mance Rayder (new character portrayed by Ciaran Hinds) has united the wildlings into the largest army Westeros has ever seen. Only the Night’s Watch stands between him and the Seven Kingdoms. Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen – reunited with her three growing dragons – ventures into Slaver’s Bay in search of ships to take her home and allies to conquer it.

  • Representações Femininas Em Game of Thrones: Mediações Entre Os Sete Reinos E a Contemporaneidade
    Representações femininas em Game of Thrones: mediações entre os Sete Reinos e a Contemporaneidade Representações femininas em Game of Thrones: mediações entre os Sete Reinos e a Contemporaneidade1 Andréa Corneli Ortis Doutoranda; Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Santa Maria, RS, Brasil ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9865-8411 Flavi Ferreira Lisbôa Filho Doutor; Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Santa Maria, RS, Brasil ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4307-9401 Resumo A presente pesquisa questiona como são representadas as identidades femininas da personagem Sansa Stark, de Game of Thrones, e quais sentidos sobre o feminino contemporâneo são mobilizados pela série. Para isso, buscamos observar nosso objeto através da categoria personagem e interações por meio da análise textual proposta por Casetti e Chio (1999). Após isso, acionamos o conceito de mediação, advindo de um cotejamento entre Williams (1979), Orózco-Gómez (1997) e Martín-Barbero (2001), por meio das categorias gênero, competência e moralidade pública, e percebemos que a série busca problematizar tipos de violência que acontecem na contemporaneidade em relação ao feminino, como sexual, psicológica ou física, casamento infantil e mulher como moeda de troca. Assim, ao longo das temporadas, a personagem é retratada de modo a ascender, porém somente após passar por inúmeros tipos de violência. Portanto, os sentidos negociados entre a ficção e a realidade presentes em Sansa, na série, são formadas de acordo com o ambiente em que vive, valores sociais e privados impostos pela sociedade. Palavras-chave Identidade feminina. Gênero. Representação. Mediações. Game of Thrones. 1 Introdução É cada vez mais difícil tornar-se mulher na sociedade contemporânea, fato que vai de encontro aos tantos anos de lutas que foram travadas para tentar vivermos de maneira 1 Este trabalho é um recorte da dissertação de mestrado de mesmo título.

  • Racialization, Femininity, Motherhood and the Iron Throne
    THESIS RACIALIZATION, FEMININITY, MOTHERHOOD AND THE IRON THRONE GAME OF THRONES AS A HIGH FANTASY REJECTION OF WOMEN OF COLOR Submitted by Aaunterria Treil Bollinger-Deters Department of Ethnic Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2018 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Ray Black Joon Kim Hye Seung Chung Copyright by Aaunterria Bollinger 2018 All Rights Reserved. ABSTRACT RACIALIZATION, FEMININITY, MOTHERHOOD AND THE IRON THRONE GAME OF THRONES A HIGH FANTASY REJECTION OF WOMEN OF COLOR This analysis dissects the historic preconceptions by which American television has erased and evaded race and racialized gender, sexuality and class distinctions within high fantasy fiction by dissociation, systemic neglect and negating artistic responsibility, much like American social reality. This investigation of high fantasy creative fiction alongside its historically inherited framework of hierarchal violent oppressions sets a tone through racialized caste, fetishized gender and sexuality. With the cult classic television series, Game of Thrones (2011-2019) as example, portrayals of white and nonwhite racial patterns as they define womanhood and motherhood are dichotomized through a new visual culture critical lens called the Colonizers Template. This methodological evaluation is addressed through a three-pronged specified study of influential areas: the creators of Game of Thrones as high fantasy creative contributors, the context of Game of Thrones

  • Daenerys Targaryen and Privacy of Minors Daenerys Targaryen Is a Fictional Character from George R.R. Martin's a Song of Ice A
    Daenerys Targaryen and Privacy of Minors Daenerys Targaryen is a fictional character from George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series. These books are written in the tradition of epic fantasy and are set in an imaginary world (Westeros) that mirrors our own world during the medieval period with a few magical elements and mythical creatures added in. Daenerys, or Dany as she is called in the series, is the last living Targaryen. The Targaryens first conquered Westeros with dragons and ruled until they were overthrown by Robert Baratheon. Dany’s family attempted to flee Westeros, as the royal children were going to be killed by the rebels. Only Dany and her abusive brother Viserys survived, however, and lived across the Narrow Sea in exile. Dany is sold by her brother to Khal Drogo and she becomes Khaleesi. After tragically losing her husband and unborn child, Dany puts three fossilized dragon eggs into Khal Drogo’s funeral pyre, then places herself into the fire. When the fire clears, Dany and her new three baby dragons emerge (Martin, 1996). She calls them her children and swears to care for them as well as those in her khalasar who did not abandon her after the Khal’s death. In A Clash of Kings (1999) and A Storm of Swords (2000) Martin reveals even more of Dany’s caring nature. Dany is now “The Mother of Dragons” and later, after freeing thousands of slaves, she is called Mhysa by her new people, which means mother. Because Dany is one of the most caring, humanistic characters in the novels, we will use the ethics of care.

  • The Art of the Episode - Beginning of the Fifth Act
    The art of the episode - beginning of the fifth act. The eighth and final season of Game of Thrones has begun. As a reminder: Dramaturgically speaking, this series is rather a long epic feature film and follows the corresponding rules. This structural structure is complemented by a historical drama in the tradition of Shakespeare. Therefore, Game of Thrones doesn't follow the rules of a series in which each episode must have a dramatic climax on the vertical narrative level. With this series of weekly comments on this series I complete the book "Game of Thrones sehen", published in 2017. With this eighth season the fifth act begins. Accordingly, the art of the first episode of this last season is not only to recall important aspects of the previous action after the long production and waiting period, but also to organize the necessary explicit action for the decisive fifth act. References to previous events must be included, especially to those of the first act, in this case the first and second season, which corresponds to the dramaturgical requirements of a last act of a feature film. This referential level is already established in the first scene when we observe a boy (Felix Jamieson) walking through the crowd to climb a tree to better observe the approaching troops. This scene reflects on the one hand the scene from the first season, in which Bran spotted the approaching caravan of King Robert from the lookout at Winterfell Castle. The boy's about the same age as Bran was in the first season.
