About this book
A Hodder Arnold teaching reader edited by Joanne Hollows, Mark Jancovich and Peter Hutchings. It gathers edited extracts from landmark critics—from early mass-culture debate through semiotics, psychoanalysis, feminism, post-colonial thought and queer theory—each set in historical context by editorial introductions and sectional headnotes. The volume was pitched at first- and second-year film and media degrees at the moment UK modularisation was expanding theory-led screen study; library metadata also records a co-published United States line through Oxford University Press.
