Kyra Clarke

Affective Sexual Pedagogies in Film and Television

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Popular film and television hold valuable potential for learning about sex and sexuality beyond the information-based model of sex education currently in schools. This book argues that the representation of complicated-or "messy"-relationships in these popular cultural forms makes them potent as affective pedagogical moments.
