Game of Thrones - A View from the Humanities. Vol. 1

Vol. 1: Time, Space and Culture. Edited by Alfonso Álvarez-Ossorio, Fernando Lozano, Rosario Moreno Soldevila and Cristina Rosillo-Lopez.

In the first Volume 12 contributions reflect on time, space and culture in the Game of Thrones universe. The book analyses both the novels and the TV series from a multidisciplinary perspective ultimately aimed at highlighting the complexity, eclecticism and diversity that characterises Martin’s world. The book is divided into three thematic sections. The first section focuses on space - both the urban and natural environment - and the interaction between human beings and their surroundings. The second section follows different yet complementary approaches to Game of Thrones from an aesthetic and cultural perspective. The final section addresses the linguistic and translation implications of the Game of Thrones universe, as well as its didactic uses.
