Mediated Girlhoods : New Explorations of Girls’ Media Culture, Hardback Book

Mediated Girlhoods : New Explorations of Girls’ Media Culture Hardback

Edited by Mary Celeste Kearney

Part of the Mediated Youth series

Hardback

Description

Mediated Girlhoods: New Explorations of Girls’ Media Culture is the first anthology devoted specifically to scholarship on girls’ media culture.

Taking a cultural studies approach, it includes analyses of girls’ media representations, media consumption, and media production.

The book responds to criticisms of previous research in the field by including studies of girls who are not white, middle-class, heterosexual, or Western, while also including historical research.

Approaching girlhood, media, and methodology broadly, Mediated Girlhoods contains studies of previously unexplored topics, such as feminist themes in teen magazines, girlmade memory books, country girlhoods, girls’ self-branding on YouTube, and the surveillance of girls via new media technologies.

The volume serves as a companion to Mediated Boyhoods: Boys, Teens, and Young Men in Popular Media and Culture, edited by Annette Wannamaker.
