Produktbeschreibung

Comics and Norm-Critical Pedagogy: Gender, Sexuality, and Cultural Identity explores how comics can challenge societal norms and serve as powerful tools for critical education.

This edited collection brings together essays examining how graphic narratives question dominant perspectives on gender, sexuality, ethnicity, mental health, and other intersecting identity categories. It highlights how comics not only reflect but also disrupt normative worldviews, offering a unique lens for norm-critical pedagogy. Each chapter concludes with reflections on the pedagogical implications of its analysis, bridging theory and classroom practice. The volume also introduces norm-critical perspectives to English-speaking comics scholarship, expanding the conversation around how visual storytelling can foster critical awareness and social change.

Comics and Norm-Critical Pedagogy: Gender, Sexuality, and Cultural Identity is ideal for graduate and postgraduate students, as well as researchers in comics studies, education, gender and sexuality studies, and the broader social sciences.
