Authorship, Activism and Celebrity : Art and Action in Global Literature
Since long before the age of celebrity activism, literary authors have used their public profiles and cultural capital to draw attention to a wide range of socio-political concerns.This book is the first to explore – through history, criticism and creative interventions – the relationship between authorship, political activism and celebrity culture across historical periods, cultures, literatures and media.It brings together scholars, industry stakeholders and prominent writer-activists to engage in a conversation on literary fame and public authority.These scholarly essays, interviews, conversations and opinion pieces interrogate the topos of the artist as prophet and acute critic of the zeitgeist; analyse the ideological dimension of literary celebrity; and highlight the fault lines between public and private authorial selves, ‘pure’ art, political commitment and marketplace imperatives.In case studies ranging from the 18th century to present-day controversies, authors illuminate the complex relationship between literature, politics, celebrity culture and market activism, bringing together vivid current debates on the function and responsibility of literature in increasingly fractured societies.

Celebrity Culture will appeal to a wide undergraduate audience throughout the social sciences and humanities.

Fittingly, itrsquos about his late father.Regarding the forthcoming album Celebrity Mansions, Matt says, ldquoItrsquos a reference to when we were on tour, questioning whether wersquod wasted our lives doing this, wondering if wersquod ever get a break. Irsquod see what yoursquod call lsquoInfluencersrsquo on Instagram. Popstars making money from being attractive. People with seemingly nothing to say. And Irsquod just think, lsquoSurely therersquos more to life than this. Surely people want more than this. Surely they want some substance. I mean, wersquore talking about music.

Language, Celebrity Fandom and Political Activism in Chinese Media : Battling for Idols Online
This book examines antagonistic fan communication on Chinese social media, focusing on the sociolinguistic dimensions and digital strategies in fandom discourse of Chinese celebrities to engage in broader questions around language, social media, and fan culture. The volume explores the different factors which contribute to antagonism in these contexts, including competitive fan posting meant to boost celebrities’ positive publicity, but also at fans’ communicative practices themselves.Adopting an action-centered sociolinguistic framework, Hou considers how antagonistic fan communication transforms as fans’ engagement with digital technologies transforms and their experience with mediated content deepens.The book takes an in-depth look into how fans use a mix of verbal aggressions, such as trolling, with savvy digital tools, such as identity masking and memes to avoid content removal, in order to mobilize, collaborate, and communicate on a wider scale and often times, funnel those energies into digital activism events.Hou shows how not only can the study of such discourses reveal fresh insights into the state of fandom culture and political communication online but also directions for future research on language and social media. This book will be of interest to scholars in digital communication, sociolinguistics, digital media studies, discourse analysis, and celebrity studies.
