It is where Dr. Hannibal Lecter, the main character ina series of suspense novels by Thomas Harris, has been incarcerated for avery long time. Dr. Lecter is highly intelligent, erudite, and intellectual, but atthe same time devoid of empathy and afflicted with a macabre abnormalityin that, in terms of his preferred diet, he is partial to human flesh. Hence,he has acquired the nickname Hannibal the Cannibal. Hannibal Lecter iswithout doubt one of the most notorious serial killers in Western popular culture. For years, he has been locked up in the deepest, darkest cellar inthis establishment, where he receives visits only from mice, rats, and a stoicguard who comes to bring him food. His cell, at the end of the corridor, issmall, four by four meters, with three stone walls, no window, and a wall ofbars on the fourth side. How does Hannibal cope with this situation? How does he manage to counteract total madness and deal with the isolation? Heuses a well-known cognitive technique: he closes his eyes for a few hours aday and enters the palace of his imagination. This palace is imaginary butconstructed in great detail. It is strikingly large, made up of countless rooms,corridors, and halls, with windows opening up views onto all the places thatare important to Hannibal. The walls are adorned with frescos depicting his own memories, fantasies, and dreams for the future – all these scenes havetheir own place in the palace of his imagination and are retrievable down to the smallest detail.Routledge research in cultural and media studies.Popular culturePopular cultureMedia studiesPopular culture.306van Es Nickyedt1356318Waysdorf Abbyeditor.1252394van Es NickyReijndersStijnBolderman LeoniekeUkMaJRUBOOK9910476772603321Locating imagination in popular culture3360665UNINA
