Introduction
11
Chronology
19
Chapter
1:
Background on
Suzanne Collins
1.
The Life of Suzanne Collins
23
Authors and Artists for Young Adults
Growing up as the daughter of a military man, Suzanne
Collins learned of the nature of war at an early age. She
used that knowledge to write the
Underland
Chronicles
and The Hunger Games series.
2.
Suzanne Collins Is Something of a Mystery
36
Claire Armistead
Collins is known for fiercely guarding her privacy. Fortu¬
nately, she lives at a time when the media can do her
publicity for her.
3.
The Last Battle: With Mockingjay
44
on Its Way, Suzanne Collins Weighs
in on Katniss and the Capitol
Rick Margolis
Just before the publication of Kiockingjay, Suzanne Col·
1шѕ
discusses important themes and symbols as well as
biographical and literary influences of the trilogy.
4.
The Hunger Games Changed
53
Suzanne Collins^ Life
НИШ
Italie
The success of Collms s The Hunger Games trilogy has
made her a celebrity, and she uses her platform as a
writer to educate children about the reality of warfare.
Chapter
2:
Violence in
The Hunger Games Trilogy
1.
The Hunger Games Taps into Adolescent
60
Issues of Dating and Death
Brian Bethune
The success of The Hunger Games is due to the specific
manner in which it addresses contemporary teen con¬
cerns. Today s teens have grown up in a turbulent era
that is mirrored in popular dystopian fiction.
2.
Violence in The Hunger Games Is a Reflection
71
of Our Own World
Rebecca Keegan
The violence and barbarism in The Hunger Games and
other similar young adult novels reflects the trauma in
the real world and can lead readers to a healthy, cathartic
experience.
3.
Love Is the Strongest Weapon in
75
The Hunger Games
Mary
Borsellino
While violence might seem to be the obvious way to
fight against a totalitarian regime, a comparison of nov¬
els suggests that Katniss is most effective when she uses
love as a method of rebellion.
4.
Katniss Becomes a Killer Kid
86
Lois H. Gresh
Childhood soldiers are not just a fictional phenomenon.
They exist worldwide, and like Katniss often suffer from
post-traumatic stress disorder long after the fighting is
over.
5.
Indicting Violence: A Pacifist Review
98
of The Hunger Games Trilogy
Marty Troyer
Violence only begets more violence. Katniss finally ends
the cycle by killing President Coin at the novel s conclu¬
sion.
6. Glamour
of Evil or Glimmer of Hope?
105
Patrick O Hannigan
In a world without any religious framework, it is not sur¬
prising that sheer brutality predominates. Collins does
not advocate such violence, but satirically critiques the
dysfunctional nature of a godless society.
7.
The Hunger Games Distorts the Reality of War
110
Paul K. Chappell
Collins never acknowledges that soldiers experience
trauma not just after war, but also often lose themselves
during battle. Children fighting to the death would not
maintain their composure as do the tributes in Collinses
books.
8.
Governments Perpetrate Violence
118
in Contemporary Fictions
James Warner
Recent fictions such as Battle
Royale
and The Hunger
Games feature governments directing young people to
kill each other. This phenomenon directly contrasts with
books such as Lord of the Flies, in which human nature is
viewed as culpable, and government is the solution.
9.
The Mockingjay Revolution Is Not a Just War
125
Louis
Melançon
The rebels in Modangjay seem to be on the side of jus¬
tice. However, when their rebellion is compared to the
tradition of the just or acceptable war, it turns out
that they are little better than the Capitol.
Chapter
3:
Contemporary Perspectives
on Violence
1.
Violent Teens Should Not Be Treated
139
as Adults
Sarah Alice Brown
Recent studies show that teens1 brains are not
fulły
devel¬
oped, leading many experts to conclude that violent teens
cannot be handled in the same manner as violent adults.
2.
There Is No Correlation Between Violent
147
Movies and Societal Violence
Robert M. Schwartz
Whenever a mass murder occurs, many are quick to
blame violence in the media. However, there is no con¬
sensus among researchers that media violence causes
such actions.
3.
Media Violence and the Connecticut Shootings
151
James
Hirsen
In the wake of horrific mass shootings in Newtown, Con¬
necticut, and Aurora, Colorado, it is time to
reexamine
the influence of violent films and video games on de¬
ranged minds.
4.
Media Violence by Itself Does Not Cause
155
Mass Killings
Arline Kaplan
Though many studies suggest that media violence may
play a role in causing mass shootings, it is one of many
factors that contribute to an individual s acting out in a
violent manner.
5.
Mass Shootings by the Mentally Disturbed
162
Can Be Mitigated
Dennis Grantham
While it is not true that the mentally ill commit a higher
percentage of violent crimes than do the rest of the
popu
lation,
such crimes can be lessened if proper diagnostic
techniques are employed.
6.
Dark and Violent Books Help Teens
168
Through Adolescence
Mary Elizabeth Williams,
Violent and sexual young adult books are not a new phe¬
nomenon, and teens should not be protected from read¬
ing material that taps into their own needs and fears to
help them navigate adolescence.
