Locating Queerness in the Media
Lexington Books (Verlag)
978-1-4985-4905-9 (ISBN)
Locating Queerness in the Media: A New Look examines how media images of the LGBTQ community create a universal consciousness about the existence of queer people, ranging from tragic and villainous to upbeat and courageous. In this book, contributors explore how our media world invites a tension that marginalizes the LGBTQ community. It examines what a queer sensibility means and how the queer community is creating new ways to study itself. Throughout the book, contributors explore specific media images that resonate throughout the media, casting the community in a particular manner. Ultimately, its goal is to promote an understanding of the LGBTQ community.
Jane Campbell is professor of English at Purdue University Northwest. Theresa Carilli is professor of communication at Purdue University Northwest.
