Broadening the research perspective of feminist comics to include national comics cultures peripheral to the cultural centers of Anglo-American, Franco-Belgian, and Japanese comics, the anthology explores how the dominant narrative or history of canonical works can be challenged or deconstructed by local histories of comics and feminism and their transnational connections, and how local histories complement or challenge the current understanding of the relationship between feminism and comic art. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is an essential collection for scholars and students in comics studies, women and gender studies, media studies, and literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kristy Beers F臠ersten\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032024968\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032024967\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/09\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.58d","brand":"Kristy Beers F臠ersten","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44122802749695,"sku":"9781032024967","price":48.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ab05a19c-838d-410a-b4f6-f7bf52794306.jpg?v=1687427241","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/comic-art-and-feminism-in-kristy-beers-fgersten-9781032024967","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
