Abstract Details

2012, MA, University of Cincinnati, Arts and Sciences: Communication.
Classic conceptions of the villain paint the character as a one dimensional figure in a morally determined world of good and evil. However, emerging postmodern trends have changed the construction of the villain to fit into the postmodern era. This piece seeks to establish a framework for understanding the postmodern villain by applying this understanding to the modern villain, the Wicked Witch of the West and her postmodern counterpart, Elphaba.
