Modern Representations of Sub-Saharan Africa: Routledge Contemporary Africa

Editat de Lori Maguire, Susan Ball, Sébastien Lefait
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 2023
This book examines how representations of African in the Anglophone West have changed in the post-imperial age.
The period since the Second World War has seen profound changes in sub-Saharan Africa, notably because of decolonization, the creation of independent nation-states and the transformation of the relationships with the West. Using a range of case studies from news media, maps, popular culture, film and TV the contributions assess how narrative and counter-narratives have developed and been received by their audiences in light of these changes.
Examining the overlapping areas between media representations and historical events, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of African Studies and Media and Cultural Studies.
