Description:
Television for Women brings together both emerging and established scholars to rethink the concept of ‘television for women’. In the context of the 2000s, when the potential meanings of both ‘television’ and ‘women’ have evolved significantly, the book explores how the notion of programming explicitly addressed to women still holds relevance.
The essays in this collection move beyond traditional boundaries, expanding both geographically and historically. The book examines various aspects of television, from its role as material culture in the early twentieth century British exhibition, to the roles women have played in television production, both past and present. It also delves into the influence of popular television shows like The Liver Birds, Orange is the New Black, Call the Midwife, One Born Every Minute, and Wanted Down Under.
Television for Women offers groundbreaking research on historical and contemporary relationships between women and television around the world, making it a valuable resource for students of television, media, and gender studies.
