Section Title:
Feminist Girls' Media Studies
Section Info:
Topic: Feminist Girls Media Studies - What is a girl? How do girls' experiences redefine culture and society? What kinds of cultural knowledge do narratives about girls produce? How are girls regulated? How do girls define themselves? Course provides an overview of recent work in Girls' Studies, an emerging interdisciplinary area of study, and conceptualizes a feminist approach to the study of girls and the media. Topics include: cultural production of girlhood in multiple media forms; girls' media production; and girl audiences, as fans, interactive users, consumers, and spectators. Course asks what theoretical assumptions and methodological approaches emerge in these scholarly contexts, and it considers what areas of feminist studies and media studies that have not yet engaged girls' studies might profit from doing so. Meets w/MDIA 590 (CRN 57075, Sec.P)
