Об электронной книге
Genre Cross Points explores the increasing integration of LGBTQ+ themes within genre fiction, particularly in graphic novels and comics. It investigates how these narratives reflect and influence societal perceptions of identity, sexuality, and representation. The book demonstrates how LGBTQ+ representation has evolved from early, often coded, appearances to today's diverse and explicit narratives, highlighting how genre fiction offers a unique space for exploring complex issues and challenging heteronormative assumptions. For instance, the book analyzes how LGBTQ+ characters, often relegated to the sidelines, take center stage in these narratives, subverting expectations. The book examines specific examples across genres like fantasy, science fiction, romance, and horror, critically analyzing narrative strategies and character development. It also considers the social and political contexts shaping these representations, such as the impact of the AIDS crisis and the fight for marriage equality. Structured in three sections, Genre Cross Points first introduces key concepts, then offers detailed analyses of specific works, and finally synthesizes findings to discuss implications for LGBTQ+ visibility and social change. The book approaches information with an academic yet accessible tone, making it valuable for scholars, educators, creators, and anyone interested in the power of storytelling.
