Representing Latina/x Reproductive Decision-Making, Paperback / softback Book

Representing Latina/x Reproductive Decision-Making Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Representing Latina/x Reproductive Decision Making examines representations of reproductive decisions in cultural texts and engages with scholarship on Latina/x representation to interrogate what these representations mean for Latinx popular culture.

Melissa Huerta demonstrates that cultural texts ranging from the work of Teatro Luna and television series like Jane the Virgin and Vida to the film Quinceañera and Favianna Rodriguez’s artwork can challenge traditional notions of Latina/x reproductive decisions, pointing to more inclusive understandings of people’s experiences.

Huerta argues for the importance of cultural representation in theater, television, film and art and analyzes the roles language and images play in shaping meaning.

This book will be of interest to scholars of cultural studies, gender studies, Latin American studies, and film and media studies.
