La imagen de la mujer andaluza en el cine español
La representación de la mujer andaluza permanece aún hoy con los mismos rasgos que, desde su inicio, permitieron su asunción por parte del público. La imagen de Andalucía está vinculada a la novela de los viajeros románticos aunque el medio cinematográfico fue el que contribuyó decisivamente a la fijación de los estereotipos vinculados a lo andaluz. Folclórica y rebelde son dos términos que se han atribuido a la imagen de la mujer andaluza en el cine español. Las autoras dividen su estudio en tres capítulos en los que analizan el contexto histórico y los condicionantes que determinan la evolución del cine español de cada una de esas épocas. Aunque las películas parezcan ser un simple reflejo de la imaginación de sus creadores, siempre están condicionadas por el clima social vigente del momento en el que son realizadas.
Shifting Subjectivities in Contemporary Fiction and Film from Spain
This collection of essays analyzes shifting notions of self as represented in films and novels written and produced in Spain in the twenty-first century. In doing so, the anthology establishes an international dialogue of multicultural perspectives on trends in contemporary Spain, and serves as a useful reference for scholars and students of Spanish literature and cinema. The primary avenues of exploration include representations of recovery in post-crisis Spain, marginalized texts and identities, silenced subjectivities, intersecting relationships, and spaces of desire and control. The individual chapters focus on major events, such as the global economic crisis, the tension between majority and minority cultures within Spain, and the ongoing repercussions of past trauma and historical memory. In doing so, they build upon theories of identity, subjectivity, gender, history, memory, and normativity.

Popular Music in Spanish Cinema
Popular Music in Spanish Cinema analyses the aesthetics and stylistic development of soundtracks from national productions, considering how political instability and cultural diversity in Spain determined the ways of making art and managing culture. As a pioneering study in this field, the chronologically structured approach of this book provides readers with a complete overview of Spanish music and connects it to the complex historical events that conditioned Spanish culture throughout the 20th century to the present day, from the Second Republic, the Spanish Civil war, and the dictatorship through to democracy. The book enables an understanding of the relationships between the recording an...
Representaciones de género, igualdad y diversidad en los medios de comunicación
Los medios de comunicación poseen un importante papel en la representación de la sociedad. Analógicos y digitales, convencionales e innovadores, transmiten una realidad que está repleta de estereotipos, modelos y perfiles. Tanto los espacios de carácter informativo como los de ficción y entretenimiento influyen de forma determinante en el público y, por ello, deben tener un compromiso con la igualdad y la diversidad. En este libro se hace un recorrido por dieciséis capítulos que ilustran cómo la prensa, la televisión, el cine, las series o los videojuegos abordan en el presente las representaciones de género.
