Pippi als Punk - beliebte Kinderbuchfiguren und wofür sie stehen

In the organizer's words:

Lecture and discussion with Christine Lötscher
Moderation: Barbara Plankensteiner

As soon as popular classics of children's literature are adapted for the stage, cinema and television, the characters are detached from the context of their original narrative and become projection surfaces, according to Christine Lötscher, Professor of Popular Literatures and Media. With the Pippi television series, the anarchic icon of white feminism and punk, who always does what she wants, lives on on the screen and offers countless opportunities for identification not only for children but also for adults. In addition to the character of Pippi, the popular culture expert has also studied the pop cultural phenomenon of the "Swifties", the fan culture surrounding Taylor Swift.
