The Cambridge Companion to Manga and Anime, Hardback Book

The Cambridge Companion to Manga and Anime Hardback

Edited by Jaqueline (Stockholms Universitet) Berndt

Part of the Cambridge Companions to Literature series

Hardback

Description

In recent years, manga and anime have attracted increasing scholarly interest beyond the realm of Japanese studies.

This Companion takes a unique approach, committed to exploring both the similarities and differences between these two distinct but interrelated media forms.

Firmly based in Japanese sources, this volume offers a lively and accessible introduction, exploring the local contexts of manga and anime production, distribution, and reception in Japan, as well as the global influence and impact of these versatile media.

Chapters explore common characteristics such as visuals, voice, serial narrative and characters, whilst also highlighting distinct challenges and histories.

The volume provides both a basis for further research in this burgeoning field and a source of inspiration for those new to the topic.
