Doing Gender in Media, Art, and Culture provides a critical introduction to recent developments in cultural gender studies. Focusing primarily on the fields of art, culture, and media, it encompasses literary, historical, film, performance, and indigenous studies, as well as the digital humanities.Gender studies currently find themselves at the heart of a deeply troubling socio-political landscape. The eighteen chapters in this volume aim to provide knowledge on how to understand the current backlash against feminism and how to navigate the increasingly polarised debates surrounding systemic racism and sexism, anti-trans violence, and non-binary gender identifications. It teaches its readers how to address epistemic inequalities in knowledge production and how to make sense of the role of gender in thinking about racism, climate change, and armed conflict. Analysing the mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion is a core task of feminist scholarship and, consequently, motivates the intersectional and gender-sensitive research methods that are brought to the fore in this book.This vibrant and wide-ranging collection of essays is essential reading for anyone seeking an accessible yet sophisticated guide to the foundational issues, concepts and debates within gender studies.
