Television and Women's Culture: The Politics of the Popular

Voorkant
Mary Ellen Brown
SAGE, 15 jun 1990 - 256 pagina's
In this book an international team of contributors examines critically the relationship between television and women's culture. Although they recognize that television frequently distorts and oppresses women's experience, the authors avoid a simplistic manipulative view of the media. Instead they show how and why such different genres as game shows, police fiction and soap opera offer women opportunities for negotiation of their own meanings and their own aesthetic appreciation.

Not for sale in Australia or New Zealand.
