Permission for Brutality

Original language description

This study examines how medievalist comics insist on their historical accuracy (implying that they represent authentic facts, rather than simulacra) routinely present brutality and invisibility as linked with an authentic Middle Ages, while restricting fair representation to the world of fantasy. Witches and pagan magical beings are contextualized in a medievalist story world, and the patina of historicity that story world dictates not only the presence or absence of these types of characters, but predicates the representation of females and queer characters in general, especially their parts in the violence of the medievalized story world. While the magical beings are clearly simulacra, authors and readers seem to overlook the fact that the Brutal Middle Ages are also simulacra.
