Die Auswirkungen von Sick Lit auf deren Zielgruppe

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Pre-University Paper in the subject Literature - Basics, , language: English, abstract: This paper focuses on a specification of the wide topic "Sick Lit", which is the abbreviated form of "sick literature". It is defined as literature featuring sick children, written for children. With literary works - such as The Fault in Our Stars by John Green - gaining popularity, questions may arise. The relevance of this paper is to determine the impact of such books on their target readership. Due to the impossibility of covering every book under this subgenre, specific literature has been picked. Aside from the coverage of the subgenre's history, experts and readers are cited. Additionally, the psychological theory of adolescents' understanding and perceptions of death is provided. After months of research, it was therefore possible to state that even multiple experts' opinions differ. While some appeal to the authors' responsibility or are concerned about the literature being harmful for its readers, others view "Sick Lit" as a form of education.
