Book Synopsis Villains and Heroes, Or Villains as Heroes? by : Luke Seaber
Book excerpt: What constitutes a villain? How does villainy differ from evil? Is Captain Hook a villain - or is Peter Pan? Do portrayals of villainy from places as far apart as the Yemen, Italy and Ireland show common characteristics? Do villains created for children's fiction differ from those created for adults? This volume attempts to answer these questions.Rev. and enlarged papers from the second interdisciplinary conference on 'Villains and Villainy' held at Oriel College, Oxford, in September 2010.
