Book Synopsis Leadership in Game of Thrones by : Brigitte Biehl
Download or read book Leadership in Game of Thrones written by Brigitte Biehl and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-13 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winning power in Westeros is hard, but holding power is much harder. The book analyzes strategies of leadership in the popular television series as an inspiration for today's uncertain times and our corporate world, bringing together research on TV series with management studies. The medieval fantasy world presents emotional and larger-than-life leadership archetypes: charismatic, authentic, privileged, masculine, female, motherly, lonely, romantic and disabled leaders. They are constructed and deconstructed. Hands, penises, and heads are chopped off. In this way, the series also celebrates the power of those who follow or resist, and always influence their leaders. Dr. Brigitte Biehl (Biehl-Missal) is Professor for Media and Communication Management at the SRH Berlin University of Applied Sciences, School of Popular Arts in Berlin, acting as Head of Studies B.A. Creative Industries Management, M.A. International Management Focus on Creative Leadership, and director of the Institute for Professional Development (IWK). Her background is in theater, film and media studies and business studies; she has published widely on art, aesthetics and management. This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Leadership in Game of Throne by Brigitte Biehl, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.

Book Synopsis Game of Thrones - A View from the Humanities Vol. 2 by : Alfonso Álvarez-Ossorio
Download or read book Game of Thrones - A View from the Humanities Vol. 2 written by Alfonso Álvarez-Ossorio and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-27 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the characters that populate the Game of Thrones universe and on one of the most salient features of their interaction: violence and warfare. It analyses these questions from a multidisciplinary perspective that is chiefly based on Classical Studies. The book is divided into two sections. The first section explores Martin’s characters as the mainstay of both the novels and the TV series, since the author has peopled his universe with three-dimensional intriguing characters that resonate with the reader/audience. The second section is devoted to violence and warfare, both pervasive in the Game of Thrones universe. In particular, the TV series’ depiction of violence is explicit, going beyond the limits that have seldom been traversed in primetime television i.e. the execution of Ned Stark, the “Red Wedding” and “Battle of the Bastards”. In the Game of Thrones universe, violence is not only restricted to warfare but is an everyday occurrence, a result of the social and gender inequalities characterising the world created by Martin.
Book Synopsis Game of Thrones - A View from the Humanities Vol. 1 by : Alfonso Álvarez-Ossorio
Download or read book Game of Thrones - A View from the Humanities Vol. 1 written by Alfonso Álvarez-Ossorio and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-20 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reflects on time, space and culture in the Game of Thrones universe. It 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. This book is paired with a second volume that focuses on the characters that populate Martin’s universe, as well as on one of the ways in which they often interact—violence and warfare—from the same multidisciplinary perspective.
Book Synopsis Re-reading A GAME OF THRONES by : Remy J. Verhoeve
Download or read book Re-reading A GAME OF THRONES written by Remy J. Verhoeve and published by Nimble Books LLC. This book was released on 2011-04 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996, George R.R. Martin electrified fantasy fans around the world when he published A Game of Thrones, the first book in his acclaimed A Song of Ice and Fire series. Since then, Martin has published three more books in the series. The engrossing tale Martin spun with these first novels in his saga has gained more and more fans across the world and has resulted in a number of spin-off products, such including HBO's TV series, card and board games, computer games, sword replicas, comic books and calendars. Perhaps paradoxically, the number of years between each time Martin publishes a new book in the series has increased. Fans have been clamoring for the fifth volume, A Dance with Dragons, since 2005: A book that promises to pick up the storylines of fan-favorite characters left hanging since 1999. As Martin struggles to reach the finish line, or indeed even the halfway point in his epic, his fans wait for the next fix. One way to keep sane during the long waits is to re-read the already published novels. Journey to Westeros with Remy J. Verhoeve as he celebrates his tenth reading of A Game of Thrones. Chapter by chapter, the author, a Dutch-Norwegian English teacher and self-confessed fantasy geek, is both fellow traveler and tour guide as he shares his insightful reflections on Martin's writing techniques, major - and seemingly minor - plot points and characters, and much more. True to its origins as a blogging project undertaken while not-so-patiently waiting for A Dance With Dragons, the author does not hold back in this unauthorized companion book that is both an unabashed homage to the novel that started it all, as well as a candid - and at times controversial - commentary on the issues surrounding the delayed release of the fifth book. Whether or not they agree with everything the author has to say, all fans of A Song of Ice and Fire, from those who have loved the series since its inception in 1996 to those who have only just discovered it through the HBO series, will enjoy this thought-provoking and outspoken book.

Now this bundle collects the entire monumental cycle in the most convenient format available: A GAME OF THRONES A CLASH OF KINGS A STORM OF SWORDS A FEAST FOR CROWS A DANCE WITH DRAGONS “One of the best series in the history of fantasy.”—Los Angeles Times Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King’s Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert’s name. There his family dwells in peace and comfort: his proud wife, Catelyn; his sons Robb, Brandon, and Rickon; his daughters Sansa and Arya; and his bastard son, Jon Snow. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse—unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances. Now Robert is riding north to Winterfell, bringing his queen, the lovely but cold Cersei, his son, the cruel, vainglorious Prince Joffrey, and the queen’s brothers Jaime and Tyrion of the powerful and wealthy House Lannister—the first a swordsman without equal, the second a dwarf whose stunted stature belies a brilliant mind. All are heading for Winterfell and a fateful encounter that will change the course of kingdoms. Meanwhile, across the Narrow Sea, Prince Viserys, heir of the fallen House Targaryen, which once ruled all of Westeros, schemes to reclaim the throne with an army of barbarian Dothraki—whose loyalty he will purchase in the only coin left to him: his beautiful yet innocent sister, Daenerys. “Long live George Martin . . . a literary dervish, enthralled by complicated characters and vivid language, and bursting with the wild vision of the very best tale tellers.”—The New York Times

Book Synopsis Game of Thrones versus History by : Brian A. Pavlac
Download or read book Game of Thrones versus History written by Brian A. Pavlac and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-02-28 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since it first aired in 2011, Game of Thrones galloped up the ratings to become the most watched show in HBO’s history. It is no secret that creator George R.R. Martin was inspired by late 15th century Europe when writing A Song of Ice and Fire, the sprawling saga on which the show is based. Aside from the fantastical elements, Game of Thrones really does mirror historic events and bloody battles of medieval times—but how closely? Game of Thrones versus History: Written in Blood is a collection of thought-provoking essays by medieval historians who explore how the enormously popular HBO series and fantasy literature of George R. R. Martin are both informed by and differ significantly from real historical figures, events, beliefs, and practices of the medieval world. From a variety of perspectives, the authors delve into Martin’s plots, characterizations, and settings, offering insights into whether his creations are historical possibilities or pure flights of fantasy. Topics include the Wars of the Roses, barbarian colonizers, sieges and the nature of medieval warfare, women and agency, slavery, celibate societies in Westeros, myths and legends of medieval Europe, and many more. While life was certainly not a game during the Middle Ages, Game of Thrones versus History: Written in Blood reveals how a surprising number of otherworldly elements of George R. R. Martin’s fantasy are rooted deeply in the all-too-real world of medieval Europe. Find suggested readings, recommended links, and more from editor Brian Pavlac at gameofthronesversushistory.com.
Book Synopsis Feuer kann einen Drachen nicht töten by : James Hibberd
Download or read book Feuer kann einen Drachen nicht töten written by James Hibberd and published by Penhaligon Verlag. This book was released on 2020-11-23 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exklusiv und einmalig: alle Hintergründe zur Blockbuster-Serie, mit brandneuen Interviews, unveröffentlichten Bildern, autorisiert von HBO. Sie war die unmöglichste Roman-Adaption der Geschichte: die Verfilmung von »Game of Thrones«. Sogar Autor George R.R. Martin war überzeugt, dass seine Fantasysaga zu komplex für den Bildschirm sei. Und doch machte HBO das Unmögliche möglich: Die ab 2011 ausgestrahlte Show wurde zum größten Serien-Phänomen aller Zeiten, gekrönt mit unzähligen Preisen (darunter 59 Emmys und damit mehr als jede andere Show der Geschichte) und zuletzt 44 Millionen Zuschauern pro Folge – und das allein in den USA. Alles an der Serie unterlag höchster Geheimhaltung – doch einer hatte Zugang zu den hermetisch abgeriegelten Sets und interviewte exklusiv all jene Menschen, die zum überragenden Erfolg von »Game of Thrones« beitrugen: der Journalist James Hibberd. In diesem Prachtband, gespickt mit bislang unveröffentlichten Bildern, erzählt er ihre Geschichten und lässt Stars, Showrunner und den Autor erzählen, über was sie vor Serienende mit niemanden sprechen durften: was hinter den Kulissen von »Game of Thrones« wirklich passierte. Mit mehr als fünfzig neuen Interviews (unter anderem mit George R.R. Martin, Peter Dinklage, Emilia Clarke uvm.) und noch nie veröffentlichten Bildern!
