This book is an introduction to cosplay as a subculture and
community, built around playful spaces and the everyday practices
of crafting costumes, identities, and performances. Drawing on new
and original ethnographic data, as well as the innovative use of
arts-led research, this book adds to our understanding of a
popular, global cultural practice. In turn, this pushes forward our
understanding of play, fan practices, subcultures, practice-led
research, and uses of urban spaces. Cosplay and the Art of Play
offers a significant addition to key contemporary debates on the
meaning and uses of popular culture in the 21st century, and will
be of importance to students and scholars interested in
communities, fandom, identity, leisure, participatory cultures,
performance, and play.
