Clarification
(Anonymous) 2015-04-11 12:33 am (UTC)(link)I'm not talking about Yuletide. I'm just talking about the fandoms at large. Obviously anyone can be part of the fandom with whatever level of engagement they want or knowledge they have. I'm just curious what the general expectation is.
Like, in a conversation about Arthur, if you start quoting Le Morte d'Arthur, do you expect people will know where it's from or are you going to say what it's from, maybe who wrote it, where it fits into the main mythology, etc.
Like, for instance, most book!fans have a reasonable expectation of people having read Hobbit and LOTR but not Silmarillion or UT or HoME. But they might also expect a passing knowledge of some of the big things in Silmarillion and generally no knowledge of HoME.
Are there similar things in the other fandoms? Are there fan theories running around about certain characters? Or generally accepted head-canons? General pet peeves about movie adaptions? Or is it super individualized and there really isn't a "fandom" so much as a love of lore? That kind of thing.
Re: Clarification
(Anonymous) 2015-04-11 12:50 am (UTC)(link)Honestly, I'm not sure you can really call the mythology fandom a "fandom" in the sense you seem to be trying for. It's mostly just lore love, with occasional rps based on it/series based on it [though those tend to be actual fandoms in their own right.]
