Hogwarts, uma história : uma análise da jornada de fãs de Harry Potter como criadores de conteúdo na internet

Abstract

This research aims to understand, analyze, and historicize the creation of content by Brazilian fans of Harry Potter. The study seeks to identify how this creation happened since the popularization of the Internet in Brazil, seeking to understand the purpose of these contents, the platforms where they were disseminated and, how this creation happens now, with the mobile culture. The theoretical review covers concepts that go from cyberculture, participative culture, fan culture to the concept of emotional capital and its consequences. The methodologies applied were bibliographic and documental research, not forgetting exploratory research following a cartographic logic to map the paths taken by Harry Potter fans when creating online content. The convergence of theory with the collected materials was essential for the understanding and historicization of content creation by Brazilian fans of Harry Potter, as well as the understanding of how such creation happened and still happens today.
