Mediated Girlhoods

Zusatztext

Mediated Girlhoods, Volume 2 is an anthology devoted to scholarship on girls media culture. Taking a cultural studies approach, it includes studies of girls media representations, girls media consumption, and girls media production. In an attempt to push research on girls media culture in new directions, it responds to criticisms of previous research in this field by including studies of girls who are not white, middle-class, heterosexual, cisgender, or Western. Approaching girlhood, media, and methodology broadly, Mediated Girlhoods includes studies of such previously unexplored topics as girls mimetic communication via Tumblr, the girlyboy in independent Filipino cinema, Qatari girls film production, trans girlhood in advertising, Canadian girls feminist activism, and the new girl subject imagined in Disneys Cinderella (2015). Mediated Girlhoods, Volume 2 is appropriate for undergraduate- and graduate-level courses, particularly graduate seminars exploring girlhood, media, and culture; youth media; youth cultures; and gender and media; and undergraduate courses housed within the following departments: media studies, communication studies, cultural studies, womens and gender studies, sociology, literature, history, education, and psychology.
