{"product_id":"fertile-visions-anne-carruthers-9781501358579","title":"Fertile Visions: The Uterus as a Narrative Space in Cinema from the Americas","description":"\u003ci\u003eFertile Visions\u003c\/i\u003e conceptualises the uterus as a narrative space so that the female reproductive body can be understood beyond the constraints of a gendered analysis. Unravelling pregnancy from notions of maternity and mothering demands that we think differently about narratives of reproduction. This is crucial in the current global political climate wherein the gender-specificity of pregnancy contributes to how bodies that reproduce are marginalised, controlled, and criminalised. Anne Carruthers demonstrates fascinating and insightful close analyses of films such as \u003ci\u003eJuno, Birth, Ixcanul\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eArrival\u003c\/i\u003e as examples of the uterus as a narrative space. Fertile Visions engages with research on the foetal ultrasound scan as well as phenomenologies, affect and spectatorship in film studies to offer a new way to look, think and analyse pregnancy and the pregnant body in cinema from the Americas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anne Carruthers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 150135857X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501358579\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/12\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Anne Carruthers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44127752814847,"sku":"9781501358579","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e73ebcc0-c549-452b-8f1d-a39c3f1f15c8.jpg?v=1687455036","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/fertile-visions-anne-carruthers-9781501358579","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
