The collection defines an understanding of ?difficult death? and examines the differences between death, dying and the dead, as well as exploring the ethical challenges of researching death in mediated form. The collection is attendant to the ways in which difficult deaths are imbricated in power structures both before and after they become mediatised in culture. As such, the work navigates the many political and social complexities and inequalities ­? what might be deemed the difficulties ? of death, dying and the dead. The book seeks to expand understandings of the difficulty of death in media and culture through a wide range of chapters from different contexts focused on literature, film, television, and in online environments, as well as several chapters examining news reportage of difficult deaths. . 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aTelevision broadcasting 606 $aJournalism 606 $aCultural Studies 606 $aFilm and Television Studies 606 $aJournalism 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 0$aTelevision broadcasting. 615 0$aJournalism. 615 14$aCultural Studies. 615 24$aFilm and Television Studies. 615 24$aJournalism. 676 $a700.4548 702 $aColeclough$b Sharon 702 $aMichael-Fox$b Bethan 702 $aVisser$b Renske 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910766894003321 996 $aDifficult Death, Dying and the Dead in Media and Culture$93648675 997 $aUNINA
