Abstract

AbstractUtilizing Turner’s (Citation1974a) theoretical framework of liminoidity, this research analyzes leisure experiences by Harry Potter fans visiting the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, Florida. Liminoid experiences are broadly characterized by leisure, individualization, continuously reoccurring nature, and do not require society-wide participation or personal transformation (Turner, Citation1974a). This phenomenological research employed qualitative methods to explore the structure of liminoidity in leisure experiences and extend Turner’s concept of spontaneous communitas and play. The author puts forth the Liminoid Leisure Experience Model to describe the processes of liminoid leisure experiences. Findings are transferrable and generalizable across fan communities.Keywords: CommunitasfandomHarry Potterliminaltourism Disclosure statementThe author declares that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper.

本研究运用特纳(Citation1974a)的阈限性理论框架，分析了哈利波特迷在佛罗里达州奥兰多参观哈利波特魔法世界的休闲体验。阈限体验的广泛特征是休闲、个性化、不断重复发生的性质，不需要全社会参与或个人转变(Turner, Citation1974a)。这一现象学研究采用定性方法探索休闲体验中的阈限性结构，并扩展透纳的自发性社区和游戏概念。作者提出了阈限休闲体验模型来描述阈限休闲体验的过程。研究结果可以在粉丝社区中转移和推广。披露声明作者声明，他们没有已知的竞争经济利益或个人关系，可能会影响本文所报道的工作。
