The Palgrave Handbook of Parenthood in Popular Culture, Gebunden

Klappentext

This Handbook showcases representations of parenthood in twenty-first-century popular culture, critically assessing how these representations shape, respond to, and redefine notions of families, as well as popular culture genres. Uniquely, the collection brings together motherhood, fatherhood, and parenthood studies. Chapters use intersectional approaches to illuminate LGBTQ+, racialized, Indigenous, and AI-generated as well as normative or 'mainstream' parental subjectivities and also address the topic of non-parenthood. The volume analyzes games, comics, social media, literature, film, television, and more. It is global in scope, signaled by the diverse cultural and geopolitical locations of the contributors and the texts they examine. Chapters are produced out of and / or are set within Canada, the United States, Britain, Ireland, Italy, Sweden, Finland, India, Iran, China, Japan, South Korea, Jamaica, South Africa, and Australia.
