Description de l'ouvrage :
This edited collection provides an intersectional and transnational exploration of representations of sexual violence and rape within films, television shows, and digital media in the contemporary context of the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements. Drawing upon sociology, gender studies, cultural studies, media studies, and Black feminist studies, chapters focus on women and texts at the margins of mainstream culture’s depictions of sexual violence. The editors and contributors examine the dominant narrative of the thin, cisgender, heterosexual white female victim, and the ways in which social and cultural conversations around race and gender impact and are impacted by depictions of sexual violence in media.
This book will be of interest to scholars and students in sociology, gender studies, and media studies, particularly those interested in the intersectionality of race and gender.

Revue de Presse :
"The Forgotten Victims of Sexual Violence in Film, Television and New Media: Turning to the Margins is a rich and original collection of essays that drills down into the question of who gets elided from dominant narratives of sexual violence. Each and every one of these socially urgent essays is written with clarity, conviction, and care. By investigating the margins of texts and spotlighting characters that have been previously ignored, ridiculed and/or demonized in sexual violence narratives, this collection develops significant new ways to think about, analyse, and understand sexual violence. Through their commitment to foregrounding underrepresented communities, Stephanie Patrick and Mythili Rajiva show the way forward for feminist scholarship on representations of rape and gendered violence. A truly exciting example of collaborative and intersectional feminist scholarship on sexual violence, media cultures, and social justice."
