Specificatii
To be continued... Whether these words fall at a season-ending
episode of Star Trek or a TV commercial flirtation between
coffee-loving neighbors, true fans find them impossible to resist.
Ever since the 1830s, when Charles Dickens's Pickwick Papers
enticed a mass market for fiction, the serial has been a popular
means of snaring avid audiences. Jennifer Hayward establishes
serial fiction as a distinct genre -- one defined by the activities
of its audience rather than by the formal qualities of the text.
Ranging from installment novels, mysteries, and detective fiction
of the 1800s to the television and movie series, comics, and
advertisements of the twentieth century, serials are loosely linked
by what may be called family resemblances. These traits include
intertwined subplots, diverse casts of characters, dramatic plot
reversals, suspense, an such narrative devices as long-lost family
members and evil twins. Hayward chooses four texts to represent the
evolution of serial fiction as a genre and to analyze the peculiar
draw that serials have upon their audiences: Dickens's novel Our
Mutual Friend, Milton Canif's comic strip Terry and the Pirates,
and the soap operas All My Children and One Life to Live. Hayward
argues that serial audiences have developed active strategies of
consumption, such as collaborative reading and attempts to shape
the production process. In this way fans have forced serial
producers to acknowledge the power of the audience.
