The Lively Audience A Study of Children Around the TV Set

The Lively Audience A Study of Children Around the TV Set

The Lively Audience (1986) studies television from the children’s own point of view. Contrary to most prevailing opinion it contends that television has much to teach children and that their relationship with the medium is not one of passive dependency after all. Research shows that what children gain from television depends very much on the child’s age and social experience and that children ‘see’ television differently from adults. This book examines this issue and gives us a different understanding of the child audience and the impact of their television viewing. | The Lively Audience A Study of Children Around the TV Set

Queer Representation Visibility and Race in American Film and Television Screening the Closet

Queer Representation Visibility and Race in American Film and Television Screening the Closet

This book traces the uneven history of queer media visibility through crucial turning points including the Hollywood Production Code era the AIDS crisis of the 1980s the so-called explosion of gay visibility on television during the1990s and the re-imagination of queer representations on TV after the events of 9/11. Kohnen intervenes in previous academic and popular accounts that paint the increase in queer visibility over the past four decades as a largely progressive development. She examines how and why a limited and limiting concept of queer visibility structured around white gay and lesbian characters in committed relationships has become the embodiment of progressive LGBT media representations. She also investigates queer visibility across film TV and print media and highlights previously unexplored connections such as the lingering traces of classical Hollywood cinema's queer tropes in the X-Men franchise. Across all chapters narratives and arguments emerge that demonstrate how queer visibility shapes and reflects not only media representations but the real and imagined geographies histories and people of the American nation. | Queer Representation Visibility and Race in American Film and Television Screening the Closet

Discourse Power Address The Politics of Public Communication

Discourse Power Address The Politics of Public Communication

'Discourse Power Address' identifies the existence of 'directive' address a form of strategic communication which is employed in a number of dominant practices including Advertising Politics Public Relations and Corporate representation. Stuart Price argues that the simulation of intimacy in authoritarian address masks a drive to power in which the creation of propositions by powerful social actors is based on the 'timeliness' of utterance rather than any real adherence to truth or genuine explanation. Election broadcasts political speeches TV commercials and corporate advertisements are all scrutinised in order to evaluate competing perspectives on the creation and circulation of meaning; particular reference is made to theories of discourse ideology and address. In the course of his argument the author proposes an original method for determining how authoritarian address attempts to make an impact on audiences. Providing a cross-disciplinary contribution to the fields of Communication Language Media and Political Studies this book provides an original clear-sighted contribution to the debate on language and power and will provide an essential resource for lecturers researchers students activists and policy-makers. | Discourse Power Address The Politics of Public Communication
