Series Statement:
Routledge studies in gender, sexuality, and comics
Content:
"This edited collection explores how the relationship between comic art and feminism has been shaped by global, transnational, and local trends, curating analyses of multinational comic art that encompasses themes of gender, sexuality, power, vulnerability, assault, abuse, taboo, and trauma. The chapters illuminate in turns the defining features of the aesthetics, materiality, and thematic content of their source material, often expressed with humorous undertones of self-reflection or social criticism, as well as recurring strategies of visualizing and narrating female experiences. Broadening the research perspective of feminist comics to include national comics cultures peripheral to the cultural centers of US-American, Franco-Belgian, and Japanese comics, the anthology explores how the dominant narrative or history of canonical works can be challenged or deconstructed by local histories of comics and feminism and their transnational connections, and how local histories complement or challenge the current understanding of the relationship between feminism and comic art. This is an essential collection for scholars and students in comics studies, women and gender studies, media and literature"--
