Seeking an Alternative: “Male” Shōjo Fans since the 1970s (Patrick W. Galbraith).Since the 2000s, the Japanese word shōjo has gained global currency, accompanying the transcultural spread of other popular Japanese media such as manga and anime. The term refers to both a character type specifically, as well as commercial genres marketed to female audiences more generally. Through its diverse chapters this edited collection introduces the two main currents of shōjo research: on the one hand, historical investigations of Japan’s modern girl culture and its representations, informed by Japanese-studies and gender-studies concerns; on the other hand, explorations of the transcultural performativity of shōjo as a crafted concept and affect-prone code, shaped by media studies, genre theory, and fan-culture research. While acknowledging that shōjo has mediated multiple discourses throughout the twentieth century—discourses on Japan and its modernity, consumption and consumerism, non-hegemonic gender, and also technology—this volume shifts the focus to shōjo mediations, stretching from media by and for actual girls, to shōjo as media. As a result, the Japan-derived concept, while still situated, begins to offer possibilities for broader conceptualizations of girlness within the contemporary global digital mediascape.East Asian Popular Culture,2634-5935Ethnology—AsiaCommunicationSociologyMotion pictures—AsiaAsia—Politics and governmentAsian Culturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411040Media and Communicationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/412010Gender Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35000Asian Cinema and TVhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413030Asian Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911110Ethnology—Asia.Communication.Sociology.Motion pictures—Asia.Asia—Politics and government.Asian Culture.Media and Communication.Gender Studies.Asian Cinema and TV.Asian Politics.791.43652055305.230820952Berndt Jaquelineedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtNagaike Kazumiedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtOgi Fusamiedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910483052003321Shōjo Across Media2853134UNINA
