Feminist Literary and Filmic Cultures for Social Action

Feminist Literary and Filmic Cultures for Social Action: Gender Response-able Labs examines teaching and research practices under feminist new materialisms, affect theories and response-ability through literary and visual products, and offers possible bridges between academia and activism to create feminist interventions in contemporary neoliberal structures.

Featuring chapters from contributors across a wide range of disciplines, this book follows a methodological framework that blends traditionally opposite categories, such as theory and practice, and explores contemporary literature and films as case studies within innovative “feminist response-able labs”.

In Feminist Literary and Filmic Cultures for Social Action readers will encounter a collaborative trans-disciplinary toolbox which can be of use to multiple disciplines and an invaluable resource to advanced undergraduate students, postgraduate researchers and scholars in literary studies, film studies, feminist theories, new materialisms, and affective pedagogies
