- Description
- This collection of essays examine the HBO program Girls. Since its premiere in 2012, the series has garnered the attention of individuals from various walks of life. The show has been described in many terms: insightful, out-of-touch, brash, sexist, racist, perverse, complex, edgy, daring, provocative. Overall, there is no doubt that Girls has firmly etched itself in the fabric of early twenty-first-century popular culture. The essays in this book examine the show from various angles including: white privilege: body image: gender: culture: race: sexuality: parental and generational attitudes: third wave feminism: hipster, indie, and urban music as it relates to Generation Y and Generation X.

- Description
- The cinema of the German Democratic Republic (GDR), that is, the cinema of its state-run studio DEFA, portrayed gender and sexuality in complex and contradictory ways. This collection addresses the treatment of gender and sexuality in the productions of DEFA across genres (from shorts and feature films to educational videos, television productions, and documentaries) and in light of social, political, and cultural contexts. It also investigates subjects, including films and directors that have received little scholarly attention and nonconformist representations of gender and sexual embodiments, identifications, and practices. Contents: Introduction: Sex and Socialism in East German Cinema - Kyle Frackman and Faye Stewart:
