Beschreibungen
The contributions gathered in this volume exhibit a great variety of interdisciplinary perspectives on and theoretical approaches to the notion of <i>‘</i><em>spaces between’. They </em>draw our attention to the nexus between the medium of comics and the categories of difference as well as identity such as gender, dis/ability, age, and ethnicity, in order to open and intensify an interdisciplinary conversation between comics studies and intersectional identity studies.<br>
Part One: Dis/Ability and Graphic Medicine.- Part Two: (Trans-)Cultural Identities and the (De-)Construction of Race and Ethnicity.- Part Three: Queering Comics and the Gendered Self.- Part Four: Superheroes Revisted - Intersections of Gender and Genre.- Part Five: Fluid and Fragmented Bodies in Comics. 87025118.
