The Aesthetics of Violence in Contemporary Media
ISBN: 9781441185266 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The topic of violence in the media seems as inundated as can be.

By defining key terms like the 'graphic' nature and 'authenticity' of violent representations, and discussing how those definitions are linked to actual violence outside the film and television screen, Symonds broadens the arena of study. The topic of violence in the media seems as inundated as can be. Countless studies and research projects have been conducted, mostly to show its... |
