Description
This collection demonstrates the diverse legacy of feminist film studies. From female agencies in television series to digitized heroines in film to the aging female star, Feminisms combines compelling analyses of contemporary images of women and their narratives with reflections and interviews on the developments and differentiation in the history, theory, and practice of women and film and in the larger field of media studies.
