- Title
The Bridgerton effect: Introduction to a Special Issue on Netflix's TV series.
- Authors
Taddeo, Julie Anne
- Abstract
This special mini-issue on Netflix's TV series, Bridgerton (2020–present), highlights the power of period drama television in its interrogation of historical and contemporary issues. The authors represent different disciplines, from literature and history to communications and media studies, and the formal and reflective essays that follow, combine our perspectives as both academics and fans of the period romance genre. Lastly, this issue describes how the 'Bridgerton experience' represents the multiple ways in which fans consume this series as it continues to shape our fantasies about the past.
