Immerse In The Feminism And Visual Culture Reader Articulated By Amelia Jones Accessible As Hardcover

comprehensive anthology. A great anthology/reference to keep on hand!!! Best book ever, Perfect for teaching on feminism, visual culture, race, and/or politics, Has some great pieces on art and intersectional feminism! I really wanted to like this, but it felt like a waste of time.
The essays that were great were classics which I think most people have already heard of, and they weren't reproduced in full.
The book tried really hard to be comprehensive and include as many topics and authors and perspectives as possible, but in doing so the essays were too short and fragmented to actually help you learn much.
Bringing together key writings on art, film, architecture, popular culture, new media and other visual fields, this key reader combines classic texts by leading feminist thinkers with six previously unpublished polemical new pieces.
It explores how issues of race, class, nationality and sexuality, enter into debates about feminism, and includes work by feminist critics, artists and activists.
Articles are grouped into six thematic sections:

representation
difference
disciplines/strategies
mass culture/media interventions
the body
technology.


A valuable reference for students of visual culture and gender studies, this is both a framework within which to understand the shifts in feminist thinking in visual studies and an overview of the most significant feminist theories in this area.
