Drawing on examples from The Killing, Orange is the New Black, Big Little Lies, Wentworth, Outlander, Westworld, Being Mary Jane, Queen Sugar, Vida, and other television dramas with a focus on complex female characters, this book illustrates how female creative control in key production roles (direct authorship) together with industrial imperatives and a conducive cultural context (indirect authorship) are necessary to produce feminist texts. Placed within the larger context of a rise in feminist activism and political participation by women; the growing embrace of a feminist identity; and the ascendance of post-feminism, this book reconsiders the unfinished nature of feminist struggle(s) and suggests the need for a broader sweep of economic change. This book is a must-read for scholars of media and communication studies; television and film studies; cultural studies; sociology of gender and sexualities; women and gender studies; and international film, media and cinema studies"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Feminism on television. 650 0 $a Women on television. 650 0 $a Television series $x History $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Television broadcasting $x Social aspects. 650 7 $a Feminism on television. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01749633 650 7 $a Television broadcasting $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01146764 650 7 $a Television series. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01720041 650 7 $a Women on television. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178239 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Pinedo, Isabel C., $t Difficult women on television drama $d London ; New York : Routledge, 2021. $z 9781003031598 $w (DLC) 2020039870 830 0 $a Routledge advances in television studies. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317024903.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B0717412CF3111EB9A1890BA3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
