Screening Genders is a lively and engaging introduction to the evolving representations of masculinity, femininity, and places once thought to be \"in between.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book begins with a general introduction that traces the movement of gender theory from the margins of film studies to its center. The ten essays that follow address a range of topics, including screen stars; depictions of gay, straight, queer, and transgender subjects; and the relationship between gender and genre. Widely respected scholars, including Robert T. Eberwein, Lucy Fischer, Chris Holmlund, E. Ann Kaplan, Kathleen Rowe Karlyn, David Lugowski, Patricia Mellencamp, Jerry Mosher, Jacqueline Reich, and Chris Straayer, focus on the radical ideological advances of contemporary cinema, as well as on those groundbreaking films that have shaped our ideas about masculinity and femininity, not only in movies but in American culture at large. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first comprehensive overview of the history of gender theory in film, this book is an ideal text for courses and will serve as a foundation for further discussion among students and scholars alike.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eContents\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Subject of Gender\u003cbr\u003e Gendering Stars\u003cbr\u003e Gay, Straight, Queer, and Beyond\u003cbr\u003e Gendering Genre\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Works Cited\u003cbr\u003e Contributors\u003cbr\u003e Index\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Rutgers University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52559290630424,"sku":"9780813543406","price":24.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/screening-genders-the-american-science-fiction-film-paperback-softback-9780813543406","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
