Off-White Hollywood: American Culture and Ethnic Female Stardom
ISBN: 9780415216784 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Shadow of a Doubt
ISBN: 9781800859302 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Shadow of a Doubt (1943) was British-born Alfred Hitchcock’s sixth American film and the one that he at various times identified as his favourite and his best. It seems likely that one of the reasons he liked Shadow so much is that is an extraordinarily well-ordered narrative system, a meticulous cause and effect chain that melds its various scenes and sequences together to form a unified narrative that is highly effective in building suspense and cultivating identification with characters. This scrupulously organized film operates as a masterclass on principles of narrative design while...

Old and New Media After Katrina
ISBN: 9780230102668 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 251 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Five years after Hurricane Katrina, this thoughtful collection of essays reflects on the relationship between the disaster and a range of media forms. The assessments here reveal how mainstream and independent media have responded (sometimes innovatively, sometimes conservatively) to the political and social ruptures "Katrina" has come to represent. The contributors explore how Hurricane Katrina is positioned at the intersection of numerous early twenty-first century crisis narratives centralizing uncertainties about race, class, region, government and public safety. Looking closely at the...

This timely collection explores the politics of female celebrity across a range of contemporary and historical media contexts.

Gendering the Recession: Media and Culture in an Age of Austerity
ISBN: 9780822356875 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This timely, necessary collection of essays provides feminist analyses of a recession-era media culture characterized by the reemergence and refashioning of familiar gender tropes, including crisis masculinity, coping women, and postfeminist self-renewal. Interpreting media forms as diverse as reality television, financial journalism, novels, lifestyle blogs, popular cinema, and advertising, the contributors reveal gendered narratives that recur across media forms too often considered in isolation from one another. They also show how, with a few notable exceptions, recession-era popular...

Interrogating Postfeminism: Gender and the Politics of Popular Culture
ISBN: 9780822340324 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This timely collection brings feminist critique to bear on contemporary postfeminist mass media culture, analyzing phenomena ranging from action films featuring violent heroines to the -girling- of aging women in productions such as the movie Something's Gotta Give and the British television series 10 Years Younger. Broadly defined, -postfeminism- encompasses a set of assumptions that feminism has accomplished its goals and is now a thing of the past. It presumes that women are unsatisfied with their (taken for granted) legal and social equality and can find fulfillment only...

The Irish in Us: Irishness, Performativity, and Popular Culture
ISBN: 9780822337409 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 390 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Over the past decade or so, Irishness has emerged as an idealized ethnicity, one with which large numbers of people around the world, and particularly in the United States, choose to identify. Seeking to explain the widespread appeal of all things Irish, the contributors to this collection show that for Americans, Irishness is rapidly becoming the white ethnicity of choice, a means of claiming an ethnic identity while maintaining the benefits of whiteness. At the same time, the essayists challenge essentialized representations of Irishness, bringing attention to the complexities of Irish...

From domestic goddess to desperate housewife, What a Girl Wants? explores the importance and centrality of postfeminism in contemporary popular culture. Focusing on a diverse range of media forms, including film, TV, advertising and journalism, Diane Negra holds up a mirror to the contemporary female subject who finds herself centralized in commodity culture to a largely unprecedented degree at a time when Hollywood romantic comedies, chick-lit, and female-centred primetime TV dramas all compete for her attention and spending power. The models and anti-role models... From domestic goddess to desperate housewife, What a Girl Wants? explores the importance and centrality of postfeminism in contemporary po... |

The twenty essays collected here demonstrate how feminist historiographies at once alter and enrich ongoing debates over visuality and identification, authorship, stardom, and nationalist ideologies in cinema and media studies. Drawing extensively on archival research, the collection yields startling accounts of women's multiple roles as early producers, directors, writers, stars, and viewers. It also engages urgent questions about cinema's capacity for presenting a stable visual field, often at the expense...

Extreme Weather and Global Media
ISBN: 9781138798793 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the two decades bracketing the turn of the millennium, large-scale weather disasters have been inevitably constructed as media events. As such, they challenge the meaning of concepts such as identity and citizenship for both locally affected populations and widespread spectator communities. This timely collection pinpoints the features of an often overlooked yet rapidly expanding category of global media and analyzes both its forms and functions. Specifically, contributors argue that the intense promotion and consumption of 'extreme weather' events takes up the slack for the public...
