Reception Studies of Favorite Characters
|
Out of all the media that today‘s children encounter, what makes a particular TV character a child‘s favorite? Based on 80 case studies, in-depth fan studies and standardized surveys with over 5,000 6- to 12-year-olds in Germany, this book elucidates how girls and boys use TV characters in their everyday lives and identity work.
„Spanning a decade of highly innovative methodological work, this book gathers together a unique collection of studies as well as thought-provoking ideas about children’s relationships with their favorite television characters. A unique voice in the study of children and television, Maya Götz offers us a wealth of empirical findings and surprising interpretations to dig into and learn from!“
