Abstract

Nasilje je postalo sastavnim dijelom mnogobrojnih medijskih sadrţaja te se zbog toga, kao i
zbog koliĉine vremena kojeg medijski korisnici provode u korištenju medija, mnogobrojnim
istraţivanjima nastojalo ukazati na negativne posljedice koje takav sadrţaj moţe izazvati.
Iako je zbog mnogih drugih faktora koji utjeĉu na emocije, kogniciju i ponašanje teško
jednostrano ukazati na medije kao jedine uzroĉnike negativnih posljedica, gotovo su sva
istraţivanja pokazala da povezanost postoji. Serijali knjiga i filmova o Harryju Potteru
ostvarili su velike komercijalne uspjehe i postali sastavnim dijelom popularne kulture 21.
stoljeća. Pripadaju ţanru fantazije o kojem se nedovoljno govori u kontekstu nasilja zbog
nerealnih tematika koje obraĊuju. Istraţivanjem prikazanim u ovom radu nastojalo se ukazati
na veliku prisutnost nasilja u ovom ţanru i podići svijest o problemu eksplicitnijih prikaza
nasilja u filmskom mediju, u odnosu na knjigu. Serijali zahtijevaju odreĊenu ĉitateljsku, kao i
gledateljsku zrelost, a u hrvatskim kinima nema dobnog oznaĉavanja filmova te ne postoji
jedinstveno mjesto na kojem bi se moglo provjeriti koja je oznaka dodijeljena filmu.
Istraţivanjem je pronaĊeno ukupno 223 nasilne scene u prvim i posljednjim nastavcima, s tim
da je veći broj nasilnih prikaza pronaĊen u oba filmska nastavka.

Abstract (english)

Violence became a constituent part of numerous media content and due to that, as well as the
large amount of time that media users spend in using the media, numerous studies attempted
to point out the negative effects that can be caused by violent scenes. Even though the
responsibility can not be placed solely on the media because of the many other factors that
effect emotions, cognition and behavior, almost all research has shown that a connection
exists. The series of books and movies about Harry Potter achieved a great commercial
success and became a part of the popular culture of the 21st century. They belong to the genre
of fantasy, insufficiently discussed in the context of violence owing to the unrealistic subjects
they explore. The research presented in this paper draws attention to the large amount of
violent imagery in this genre and aims to raise awareness about the problem of more explicit
violent depictions in the movies in comparison to the books. The series require a certain
maturity from readers, as well as viewers and Croatian movie theatres do not label the movies
according to the age of the audience and there is no place where one can check the label
assigned to the movie. Conducted study found a total od 223 violent depictions in the first and
last sequences of the series, of which larger amounts of violent scenes were found in both
movie sequences.
