Queer popular culture

Descripción

"Queer Popular Culture is an exciting new collection that brings together work from several disciplines that address queer representation in multiple contexts. The chapters cover many aspects of contemporary U.S. and international queer culture, including the rise of the queer cowboy, the emergence of lesbian chic, the expansion of representations of blackness, and work on queer, Taiwanese online communities. Other chapters address queer representations from soap operas to gangster films. The book also includes a pedagogical section that addresses the use of queer concepts in the classroom."--Jacket.
