Queer The walking dead - uma análise contrassexual de Carol Peletier

Abstract

This writing is a contrassexual criticism to the series of television The Walking Dead, from the analysis of the journey of monstrification of the personage Carol Peletier. It was analyzed the construction of the character since its creation in the homonymous Comics and its adaptation on television. Using studies of gender and sexuality, especially of Paul B. Preciado, Virginie Despentes and Guacira Lopes Louro, it is shown how the understanding of QUEER should be broad and diverse. Finally, we use the studies of Maureen Murdock and Clarissa Pinkola Estés to understand the heroine's journey and some feminine archetypes of monstrification of this character in a monster world. For this, a dense description of Carol's participation from the first to the sixth season of the series and crossing of the studies and concepts mentioned above is made. This study serves to show the possibilities of a QUEER / contrassexual critique of this, and others, cultural product[s].
