Book Synopsis London as Screen Gateway by : Elizabeth Evans
Download or read book London as Screen Gateway written by Elizabeth Evans and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-26 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: London as Screen Gateway explores how London features within screen narratives and as a location of screen industry activity. Reflecting the diversity of roles the city plays both on screen and within the screen industries, the volume explores the intersection between London as a material place and its position within a cultural imaginary. Conceptualising London as an archival city, as a collection of specific places and spaces, and as a part of national and international cultural and economic flows, contributors from film studies, television studies and media studies approach London through the lenses of textual analysis, historical work, industry studies and user experience. Chapters explore how London has appeared on screen across film and television, how screen content frames notions of place and belonging within the diasporic communities across the city, how the city has become a hub for the UK and global screen industries and how it intersects with national and local media policy. This interdisciplinary volume will be of interest to scholars and students of film studies, television studies, media industry studies, games studies, cultural and media studies.

Book Synopsis Social Media and the Cultural Politics of Korean Pop Culture in East Asia by : Sunny Yoon
Download or read book Social Media and the Cultural Politics of Korean Pop Culture in East Asia written by Sunny Yoon and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-25 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines international engagement with Korean popular culture in East Asian online spaces, and how Asian identities are formed and perceived between nations within the region. In the context of global diversification and growing public participation in global issues, it builds up a new theoretical perspective in order to explain the emerging power of Asia in the global mediascape. With a focus on Korean media, touching upon K-pop and the phenomenon of Hallyu and anti-Hallyu, the author also looks at Japan, China, and Taiwan in this regional study. Combining theory with ethnographic audience studies in East Asian countries, the book elucidates East Asian media in a larger context of the changing global structure and media technology. This book will interest academics and students working on Asian popular culture and media, new media, East Asian studies, participatory media, and digital communication.
Book Synopsis Desire and Consent in Representations of Adolescent Sexuality with Adults by : Maureen Turim
Download or read book Desire and Consent in Representations of Adolescent Sexuality with Adults written by Maureen Turim and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-09-29 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an innovative comparative view of how the issue of adolescent sexuality and consent is differently treated in various media. Analyzing teenage sexual encounters with adults across a variety of media, including films, television, novels, and podcasts, the volume takes a positive stance on the expression of teenage sexuality, while remaining sensitive to the power of adults to abuse and manipulate. The anthology treats these representations as negotiations between conflicting forces: desire, sexual self-knowledge, unequal power, and the law, the latter both actual legal statutes and internalized law in the philosophical and psychoanalytic sense. Questions of unequal power inherent in such relations are theorized. The authors examine variations of this configuration of sexual relations between teenagers and adults from different perspectives, to consider how various forms of expression rework it formally. These essays are attuned to both nuances of presentation and contexts of reception, and they consider how aesthetics play a role. Contributing to the general debate about the ways that societies construct and regulate adolescent sexuality, this book will be of great interest to scholars and students of media studies, cultural studies, film studies, television studies, sociology, and gender studies
Book Synopsis Multilingual Fiction Series by : Nahuel Ribke

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the emergence and development of multilingual fiction series, a relatively new phenomenon propelled by the globalization of media industries and the consolidation of streaming platforms as central vectors in the production and consumption of audiovisual entertainment content. Through a detailed analysis of thriller, sitcom, and drama series, the book proposes an original qualitative and quantitative research methodology for the study of on-screen multilingual encounters, examining the relationship between multilingual speech and genre conventions. The book covers fiction series beyond English-speaking countries: alongside American productions, the analysis covers TV shows from Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East region. This interdisciplinary and original volume will interest scholars and students in film studies and media studies working on global media, as well as communication studies, television studies, sociolinguistics, media and cultural industries, and translation studies.
Book Synopsis Collaboration in Media Studies by : Begüm Irmak
Download or read book Collaboration in Media Studies written by Begüm Irmak and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-03-12 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers new perspectives on knowledge production through various forms of togetherness. Via diverse cases of collaboration in media studies, from methodological contemplations to on‐the‐field social practices, the book proposes reflections and inquiries around collective research, media, and action. The collection rethinks how scholarly endeavours feature different ways of doing and being together, identifying new and more diverse communicative spaces, challenging dichotomies, and encouraging critical perspectives. Scholars of a variety of disciplines recontextualise collaboration beyond the very nature of conventional academic approaches, to embrace vast connotations of media studies – from actions building connections across research and practice to transdisciplinary methodologies through analogue and digital realms. This book will be an invaluable resource for scholars and post‐graduate students from various fields of media studies, who carry an interest in collaborative and collective aspects of media as practice and research, as well as those in a variety of social science disciplines, participatory action research, media sociology, audience studies, intercultural communication, qualitative research methods, and participatory communication.

Book Synopsis Let’s spend the night together by : Subcultures Network
Download or read book Let’s spend the night together written by Subcultures Network and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let’s spend the night together explores how sex and sexuality provided essential elements of British youth culture in the 1950s through to the 1980s. It shows how the underlying sexual charge of rock ‘n’roll – and pop music more generally – was integral to the broader challenge embodied in the youth cultures that developed after World War Two. As teenage hormones rushed to move to the music and take advantage of the spaces opening up through consumption, education and employment, so the boundaries of British morality and cultural propriety were tested and often transgressed. Be it the assertive masculinity of the teds or the lustful longings of the teeny-bopper, the gender-bending of glam or the subterranean allure of an underground club/disco, the free love of the 1960s or the punk provocations in the 1970s, sex was forever to the fore and, more often than not, underpinned the moral panics that fitfully followed any cultural shift in youthful style and behaviour. Drawing from scholarship across a range of disciplines, the Subcultures Network explore how sex and sexuality were experienced, presented, conferred, responded to and understood within the context of youth culture, popular music and social change in the period between World War Two and the advent of AIDS. The essays locate sex, music and youth culture in the context of post-war Britain: with a widening and ever-more prevalent media; amidst the loosening bonds of censorship; in a society shaped by changing patterns of consumption and the emergence of the ‘teenager’; existing, as Jeff Nuttall famously argued, under the shadow of the (nuclear) bomb.
