Book Description
The question is simple. Why Jesus? In a post-Christian society, people are tired of religion. Tired of the lies. Sick of the hypocrisy. Time and pain have made us numb to this whole Jesus, church, bible thing. But before we abandon our faith, let's take a few moments to get a fresh perspective on Jesus--the most loved and hated man in history. Discover who he was, what he taught, and why so many people call him God. But be warned...You may just discover yourself in the process
Comics and Novelization
Author: Benoît Glaude
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000874400
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
This book opens a novel perspective on comics and literature interactions. It claims that the two artistic media have always maintained a mutual emulation, for as long as they have coexisted in media culture. To demonstrate this, the present research does not focus on literary adaptations in comics form but rather on a literary corpus that remains virtually unexplored: comics-related novels. The purpose of this volume is to inventory French comics-related novels and to study them. Within the limits of the French-speaking world, this book pieces together a literary history of bande dessinée through its novels, from the nineteenth to twenty-first centuries. Although the comic strip – including the aptly named "graphic novel" – has sometimes been regarded as the disciple of an unsurpassable literary model, do these under-studied adaptations in novel form not rather indicate a mutual relationship, or even an emulation, between the two media?

Women’s Manga in Asia and Beyond
Author: Fusami Ogi
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319972294
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
Women’s Manga in Asia and Beyond offers a variety of perspectives on women’s manga and the nature, scope, and significance of the relationship between women and comics/manga, both globally as well as locally. Based on the activities since 2009 of the Women’s MANGA Research Project in Asia (WMRPA), the edited volume elucidates social and historical aspects of the Asian wave of manga from ever-broader perspectives of transnationalization and glocalization. With a specific focus on women’s direct roles in manga creation, it illustrates how the globalization of manga has united different cultures and identities, focusing on networks of women creators and readerships. Taking an Asian regional approach combined with investigations of non-Asian cultures which have felt manga’s impact, the book details manga’s shift to a global medium, developing, uniting, and involving increasing numbers of participants worldwide. Unveiling diverse Asian identities and showing ways to unite them, the contributors to this volume recognize the overlaps and unique trends that emerge as a result.
