Comic Art and Feminism in the Baltic Sea Region
This edited collection explores how the relationship between comic art and feminism has been shaped by global, transnational, and local trends, curating analyses of multinational comic art that encompass themes of gender, sexuality, power, vulnerability, assault, abuse, taboo, and trauma.
The chapters illuminate in turn the defining features of the aesthetics, materiality, and thematic content of their source material often expressed with humorous undertones of self-reflection or social criticism as well as recurring strategies of visualising and narrating female experiences. Broadening the research perspective of feminist comics to include national comics cultures peripheral to the cultural centres of Anglo-American, Franco-Belgian, and Japanese comics, the anthology explores how the dominant narrative or history of canonical works can be challenged or deconstructed by local histories of comics and feminism and their transnational connections, and how local histories complement or challenge the current understanding of the relationship between feminism and comic art.
This is an essential collection for scholars and students of comics studies, women and gender studies, media studies, and literature.
Kristy Beers Fgersten is Professor of English Linguistics in the Department of Culture and Education at Sdertrn University.
Anna Nordenstam is Professor of Comparative Literature at Gothenburg University.
Leena Romu is a post-doctoral researcher at Tampere University.

Topics in the series cover printed as well as digital media, mainstream and alternative comics industries, transmedia adaptions, comics consumption, and various comics-associated cultural fields and forms of expression.
