Studying superheroes from South Asian pop culture, this book questions the definition of the superhero and the allegedly sacrosanct nature of its origin and identity in comic books. This book looks at the superhero as a performative figure and explores how the superheroic imagination opens up diverse modes of creative thinking. Superheroes studied in this book include Narayan Debnath’s Bantul the Great (comics), Premendra Mitra’s Ghanashyam Das or Ghanada (Tall Tale), Satyajit Ray’s Professor Trilokeswar Shonku (science fiction/fantasy fiction), and one of the nine gems of Emperor Akbar’s court, Raja Birbar or Birbal (mediaeval Indian history). By virtue of perpetual reconfiguration of its elements, the book argues, the concept of the superhero makes itself ‘a(chǎn)lways new’ and it is always already ‘open onto elsewhere’.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2024 | | 關鍵詞 | Judith Butler; Adriana Cavarero; Superhero Studies; Superhero and Performativity; Deleuze and the Philos | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-62933-4 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-62935-8 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-62933-4 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
