FICTIONAL AND FICTIONALISED RELIGIONS AS HERITAGE? REFLECTIONS ON THE OBJECT OF CRITICAL HERITAGE STUDIES by Mathilde van Dijk (International Journal of Heritage Studies, 2023).

#OpenAccess

"Heritage discourses and fictional narratives are not as far from each other as seems obvious. Rather, they operate on a sliding scale. Fans of certain media, whether they become adherents of a fiction-based religion or whether the fictions are meaningful to them in another way, visit the sites in which their favourite series or film were shot, use phrases from their favourite films or series, attend role-playing events and so on and so forth. Some fans do this individually; others gather in communities, on the internet, physically or both. Their favourite fictions become a building block of their identities".
