"Bad Sex examines the representation of sex and sexuality in Anglo-American drama and 'dramedy' shows like Fleabag (2019), Sex Education (2019-), I May Destroy You (2020) and Please Like Me (2013-16), arguing that TV is a key cultural site in which the politics of sexuality and gender are negotiated under contemporary conditions of neoliberalism"--

Bad Sex traces the evolution of representations of sex on screen, from earlier portrayals of sex as glamorous or taboo, to more complex depictions of often awkward or painful experiences and feelings.

Jacqueline Gibbs, Billy Holzberg, and Aura Lehtonen examine the representation of sex and sexuality in contemporary English language drama and ‘dramedy’ shows like Fleabag (2016, 2019), Sex Education (2019-23), I May Destroy You (2020) and Euphoria (2019-), arguing that TV is where the politics of sexuality and gender is negotiated under the contemporary conditions of neoliberalism.
 
 Through a cultural analysis of key television shows, they identify this shift as driven by the diversification of representations of sex and sexuality, as women, trans and non-binary, Black and minority ethnic, working-class and disabled TV professionals carve some space in a traditionally white, middle-class, cis male dominated industry. In doing so, they explore the affective potential and limits of ‘bad’ sex on our screens and what these representations can tell us about sexual politics and gender cultures today.

"What was popular entertainment like for everyday Arab societies in Middle Eastern cities during the long nineteenth century? In what ways did cafâe culture, theatre, illustrated periodicals, cinema, cabarets, and festivals serve as key forms of popular entertainment for Arabic-speaking audiences, many of whom were uneducated and striving to contend with modernity's anxiety-inducing realities? Studies on the 19th to mid-20th century's transformative cultural movement known as the Arab nahda (renaissance), have largely focussed on concerns with nationalism, secularism, and language, often told from the perspective of privileged groups. Highlighting overlooked aspects of this movement, this book shifts the focus away from elite circles to quotidian audiences. Its ten contributions range in scope, from music and visual media to theatre and popular fiction. Paying special attention to networks of movement and exchange across Arab societies in Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, Iraq, and Morocco, this book heeds the call for 'translocal/transnational' cultural histories, while contributing to timely global studies on gender, sexuality, and morality. Focusing on the often-marginalized frequenters of cafâes, artist studios, cinemas, nightclubs, and the streets, it expands the remit of who participated in the nahda and how they did"--

New Approaches to Sound, Music, and Media

"Explores how contemporary music videos travel across, shape, and transform various media, online platforms, art institutions, and cultural industries"--

Traveling Music Videos offers a new interdisciplinary perspective on how contemporary music videos travel across, shape, and transform various media, online platforms, art institutions, and cultural industries worldwide. With the onset of digital technologies and the proliferation of global video-sharing websites at the beginning of the 21st century, music video migrated from TV screens to turn instead to the internet, galleries, concert stages, and social media. As a result, its aesthetics, technological groundings, and politics have been radically transformed.
 
 From the kinaesthetic experience of TikTok to the recent reimaginations of maps and navigation tools through music video cartographies, from the ecofeminist voices mediated by live-stream concerts to the transmedia logic of video games and VR, from the videos’ role in contemporary art galleries to their political interventions —the chapters map the ways music video is continually reconfiguring itself. The volume tracks music video’s audiovisual itineraries across different geographies, maps its transmedia routes, and tackles the cultural impact that it has on our current media ecosystem.

How can we understand intensifying gender inequalities against the backdrop of the rising visibility of popular mediated feminism? Can domestic cultures provide a space for a feminist response and resistance to austerity? This book seeks to address these questions, exploring how the revival of domestic, traditionally feminine activities, such as crafting, baking and sewing, have gone hand-in-hand with the re-politicisation of domestic culture during an era of austerity. Jessica Martin provides an in-depth analysis of key public figures who forged their public personas by co-opting the harsh conditions of austerity, turning them into a 'popular' brand of neoliberal feminism. Drawing on several case studies - including self-identifying feminists, domesticity experts and mothers such as Kirstie Allsopp, Justine Roberts, and Jen Gale, as well as the blogger, cook and anti-austerity activist Jack Munroe - Martin conceptualises the 'austerity celebrity' and explores how these figures have each developed their own style of domesticity activism and politicised domesticity. She also argues that these celebrity responses span the political spectrum, be it Allsopp's active championing of the 'Big Society', individualism and conservatism or Roberts' mobilisation of mothers into a political pressure group active in UK parliamentary politics. Finally, Martin explains how the turn towards a nostalgic domesticity within austerity culture in the UK has intensified during the COVID-19 crisis, paving the way for discourse that accepts escalating inequalities under the guise of a particular notion of white nostalgic femininity, as well as the British blitz spirit, invoking a form of patriotic stoicism and nationalistic sentiment.

The Rise of Celebrity Domestic Experts in Popular Culture

Feminisms, Austerity and Domesticity

An in-depth discussion of the future of the monarchy after the death of Queen Elizabeth II and during the reign of Charles III.

'Lucid, clear-sighted and highly readable.'
Richard Toye, author of Age of Hope: Labour, 1945, and the Birth of Modern Britain.

The British monarchy has been through turbulent times. Rocked by scandal and strife, and seemingly without a clear plan for the future, many are asking: should the monarchy continue to exist in its current form? Or is it time it embraced radical change?

Ed Owens argues that the monarchy must embrace reform and transform itself radically. No more private jets while preaching about the importance of the environment; no more secrecy obscuring royal influence in high places; and no more hangers on enjoying grace-and-favour homes. A major slimming down is essential. And it's time the family archives were opened.

All these issues will have a direct effect on the common good of the nation as it tries to reinvent itself as a modern working democracy, and endeavours to equip itself for the coming decades. Ed Owens situates this critical moment of royal transition in its historical context in order to set out a vision for monarchy that is future-proof, but which would also see the crown play an integral role in the evolution of 21st-century Britain.

Can the Monarchy Save Itself?

Bloomsbury Adaptation Histories

Noted scholar Imelda Whelehan looks at key adaptations released during this period and considers the impact of social change, film consumption and film tastes, as well as noting the most popular genres at this time. The latter part of the 20th century saw cinema becoming increasingly significant as an art-form, even while its status as 'art' was still openly contested. This installment in the Bloomsbury Adaptation Histories series discusses a rich and exciting period of cinema history: Hollywood in the latter stages of its golden age, releasing masterpiece adaptations such as It's A Wonderful Life (1946), The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948), The Third Man (1949), All About Eve (1950), Rear Window (1954), The Night of the Hunter (1955) and Vertigo (1958).

They don't make comedy like they used to . . . From the slapstick comedy of Charlie Chaplin and Stan Laurel, the surrealism of Spike Milligan and Monty Python, and the golden age of political incorrectness helmed by Benny Hill, to the alternative scene that burst forth following the punk movement, the hedonistic joy of Absolutely Fabulous, the lacerating scorn of Jimmy Carr, Ricky Gervais, and Jo Brand and the meteoric rise of socially conscious stand up today: comedy can be many things, and it is a cultural phenomenon has come to define Britain like few others. In Different Times, David Stubbs charts the superstars that were in on the gags, the unsung heroes hiding in the wings and the people who ended up being the butt of the joke. Comedians and their work speak to and of their time, drawing upon and moulding Britons' relationship with their national history, reflecting us as a people, and, simply, providing raucous laughs for millions of people around the world. Different Times is a joyous, witty and insightful paean to British comedy.

Shakespeare and Adaptation

"The first edited collection to explore Shakespeare's life on modern stage and screen. Focusing on the years 1998-2023, it identifies a 25-year trend for depicting Shakespeare and his contemporaries in theatre, film and television. Exploring continuities and changes in the form since the release of Shakespeare in Love, it traces these developments through the 21st century. With contributions from scholars and practitioners across multiple disciplines, and addressing topics including gender, nation, parody and performance, the collection presents a diverse account of Shakespearean biofiction"--

This book is the first edited collection to explore Shakespeare’s life as depicted on the modern stage and screen. Focusing on the years 1998-2023, it uniquely identifies a 25-year trend for depicting Shakespeare, his family and his social circle in theatre, film and television.
 
 Interrogating Shakespeare’s afterlife across stage and screen media, the volume explores continuities and changes in the form since the release of Shakespeare in Love, which it positions as the progenitor of recent Shakespearean biofictions in Anglo-American culture. It traces these developments through the 21st century, from pivotal moments such as the Shakespeare 400 celebrations in 2016, up to the quatercentenary of the publication of the First Folio, whose portrait helped make the author a globally recognisable icon. The collection takes account of recent Anglo-American socio-political, cultural and literary concerns including feminism, digital media and the biopic and superhero genres.
 
 The wide variety of works discussed range from All is True and Hamnet to Upstart Crow, Bill and even The Lego Movie. Offering insights from actors, dramatists and literary and performance scholars, it considers why artists are drawn to Shakespeare as a character and how theatre and screen media mediate his status as literary genius.
