description | This study analyzes the fan fiction related to the Eymerich novels written by Valerio Evangelisti. The aim is to identify which stories resume the mode of representation of political discourse that underlies the original novels, criticizing the contemporary Catholic Church. Empirical research has identified 26 texts published in books and online. They compose the corpus. The analysis has placed them from an historical and typological point of view, in connection with the recent scientific production on fan fiction and adaptations, relating them to the original novels both chronologically and thematically. Two texts in particular seem to assume the same mode of representation of the political discourse in the novels. A linguistic and stylistic analysis has identified how they build a relationship with current events, history, news and political reality, and how they move a critical reflection about the Catholic Church. Research has provided never collected data, allowing to reflect upon fandom reception, the practices of rewriting texts and the attention to the political discourse |
