In this study, A Song of Ice and Fire in and The Lord of the Rings will be examined by employing Hall’s notion of diaspora and hybridity in an attempt to show how colonialism has affected the colonized people and their sense of place, what their reactions have been, and how colonial and post-colonial identities have been constructed. The most important contribution of this study is to give a new analysis of the series. There have been several readings and analyses on this series from different perspectives including the role of love, linguistic features, narration, morality, magic, cultural value and psychology. However, cultural identity and diaspora on the series from Hall’s theory have been ignored. As a result, this paper can provide influential result on post-colonial criticism and Hall’s theory that are applied to series. Moreover, the use of fantasy genre is significant in this dissertation since the real world is what perceived and observed by human psyche, and later the reality is processed, distorted, and transformed into fantasy genre to amplify the whole effects of the themes that are discussed. The genre of fantasy which is selected here depicts the reality of mentality and conditions of the postmodern world.Referências
