Abstract
La carga ideológica presente en la literatura perteneciente a la cultura popular es un asunto de gran relevancia hoy en día. Prueba de ello es la polémica surgida en torno a los galardones de los Premios Hugo de 2015 en torno a esta cuestión, donde se acusó a este certamen de elegir a sus ganadores por motivos ideológicos y no estéticos. Esta problemática, que sigue teniendo repercusión en la actualidad, entra en conflicto con cierta parte de la teoría estética de T. W. Adorno, que es muy crítica con la cultura de masas y que sirve de base para los prejuicios sobre la cultura popular por parte de diversos académicos, problemática sobre la que reflexionaron Umberto Eco y otros teóricos.
El objetivo de este Trabajo de Fin de Máster es establecer una réplica a la parte de la teoría de Adorno sobre la cultura de masas y cómo esta teoría ha afectado a las consideraciones sobre la cultura popular. Al mismo tiempo, se tratará de presentar las posibilidades que ofrece un estudio de la ideología en las obras literarias de la cultura popular y también se demostrará cómo en ciertos géneros, como el de la literatura fantástica y la ciencia ficción, la presencia de lo ideológico afecta a la forma, creando subgéneros propios.
The ideological charge present in the literature pertaining to popular culture is a matter of great relevance today. Proof of this is the controversy that arose around the awards of the Hugo Awards from 2015 on this issue, where were this contest was blamed to select their winners not aesthetic and ideological reasons. This problem, that it still has impact today, comes into conflict with certain part of the aesthetic theory of T. W. Adorno, which is very critical with mass culture and that is the basis for prejudice on popular culture by some academics, problems on which reflected Umberto Eco and other theorists. The aim of this Master thesis is to establish a replica to the theory of T.W. Adorno about a mass culture and how this theory has affected popular culture considerations to the popular culture. At the same time, it will be present the possibilities offered a study of ideology in literary works of popular culture, and will also show how in certain genres, like science fiction and fantasy literature, the presence of ideological affects the form, creating their own subgenres.
