Representations of HIV and AIDS Paperback / softback
Paperback / softback
Description
What happened to the plague of HIV/AIDS that once seemed so threatening?
Gabriele Griffin argues that the explosion of HIV/AIDS into highly visible cultural forms, from movies, theatre, activist interventions, and art from the late-1980s to the mid-1990s has been replaced by a retreat to artisitic invisibility.
Griffin suggests that changes in the understanding of HIV/AIDS, the shift from “dying of the disease†to “living with it†in Western cultures, and a failure to grasp the full extent of the growth and impact of HIV/AIDS in a number of African and Asian countries has led to the “death†of the disease in the Western media. -- .
