ABSTRACT This article examines the depiction of George VI in cartoons. These important hybrid journalistic/artistic forms reflect a subtle shift in understandings of the monarchy, from emphasising the individual personality of the incumbent (e.g. Edward VIII), towards a focus on the crown as an impersonal institution, symbolic of Britishness. Prince Albert’s low profile prior to his accession continued as a vehicle for the new manner of imagining the monarch in cartooning. Symbols of office, national and imperial allegories of monarchy, became more common in cartoons than depictions of George’s own features. Comparison to non-British cartoons underscores the findings of the research.

漫画中的乔治六世：国王消失了

摘要 本文考察了乔治六世在漫画中的描绘。这些重要的混合新闻/艺术形式反映了对君主制理解的微妙转变，从强调现任者（例如爱德华八世）的个人个性，转向将王室作为一种非个人化的机构，象征着英国人的关注。阿尔伯特亲王在他即位之前的低调继续作为一种新的方式来想象国王的卡通形象。办公室的象征、国家和帝国君主制的寓言在漫画中变得比对乔治自己的特征的描绘更常见。与非英国漫画的比较强调了研究结果。
