{"product_id":"third-wave-feminism-and-television-merri-lisa-johnson-9781845112455","title":"Third Wave Feminism and Television: Jane Puts it in a Box","description":"The sexual politics of television culture is the territory covered by this ground-breaking book - the first to demonstrate the ways in which third wave feminist television studies approaches and illuminates mainstream TV. Leading voices in third wave feminism focus on innovative US television shows, including \"The Sopranos\", \"Oz\", \"Six Feet Under\", \"The L Word\" and the reality-TV show \"The Bachelor\" to take a closer look at the contradictions and reciprocities between feminism and television, engaging as they go in theoretical and critical conversations about media culture, third wave feminism, feminist spectatorship, the sex wars, and the politics of visual pleasure. The book offers an exuberant and accessible discussion of what television has to offer today's feminist fan. It also sets a new tone for future debate, turning away from a sober, near-pessimistic trend in much feminist media studies to reconnect with the roots of third wave feminism in riot grrrl culture, sexradical feminism, and black feminism, tracing too the narratives provided by queer theory in which pleasure has a less contested place.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Merri Lisa Johnson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1845112458\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781845112455\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 03\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.66h x 5.80w x 0.87d","brand":"Merri Lisa Johnson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44410773864703,"sku":"9781845112455","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0ecb375e-34fb-4c5f-8417-1b913c133e5a.jpg?v=1697537681","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/third-wave-feminism-and-television-merri-lisa-johnson-9781845112455","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
