fanfic as lit
Okay, I know I am way over my posting quota these days, but I just had to share this right away (found it by following a link in
madlori's blog).
The Democratic Genre: Fanfiction in a Literary Context. A scholarly work about fanfic, examined from a literary persepective rather than considering it as a social phenomanon. And high time, I say. The first chapter is published online; I'm about halfway through and it is utterly fascinating. Anyone interested in literature should look at this.
Unfortunately it only seems to be available from Amazon UK. I'm pretty tempted to buy it anyway.
