Scandinavian Comics and Comics Research: Contexts, Politics and Practices
ISBN-13: 9783111131948 / Angielski / Twarda / 2025 / 360 str.
Though Scandinavian comics evolved through exchange with international networks and communities, they have a rich tradition in their own right: they have their own distinctive themes, styles and societal functions, which are in turn shaped by the social, political, economic and aesthetic realities in which they emerged. This collection spotlights not only Scandinavian comics production, but also Scandinavian comics research. It sheds light on different areas of the Scandinavian comics landscape: the relationship between Scandinavian comics and comics from other parts of the world; the formation of comics research as a discipline in Scandinavia and its relation to more traditional academic disciplines; the political significance and potential of comics in the Scandinavian context, and finally, the comics practices that are unique to Scandinavia. By presenting research on Scandinavian comics in English, this collection aims to bring the genre to the attention of an international research community, and to showcase some of the most exciting comics practitioners and researchers Europe’s North has to offer.
