This book outlines how the protagonists in The Nibelung's Ring, The
Lord of the Rings, and Game of Thrones attempt to construct
identities and expand their consciousness manifestations. As the
characters in the three works face the ends of their respective
worlds, they must find answers to their mortality, and to the
threat it implies: the loss of identity and consciousness.
Moreover, it details how this process is depicted performatively.
In a hands-on and interdisciplinary approach, this book seeks to
unveil the underlying philosophical concepts of identity and
consciousness in the three works as they are represented
audio-visually on stage and screen. Through the use of many
practical examples, this book offers both academic scholars and any
interested readers a completely new perspective on three enduringly
popular and interrelated works.
