English | ISBN: 1476668779 | 2017 | 220 pages | EPUB | 4 MB
Challenging readers to rethink what they read and why, the author questions the aesthetic assumptions that have led to the devaluing of fanfiction-a genre criticized as both tasteless and derivative-and other "guilty pleasure" reading (and writing), including romance and fantasy. The complicated relationship between "fanfic" and intellectual property rights is discussed in light of the millennia-old tradition of derivative literature, before modern copyright law established originality as the hallmark of great fiction.
"Absorbed reading"-the practice of immersing oneself in the narrative versus critically "reading from a distance"-is a strong motive for the appropriation by fanfiction of canon characters and worlds.
