Mangatopia
Author: Timothy Perper
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1591589096
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
Fascinating insights on what Japanese manga and anime mean to artists, audiences, and fans in the United States and elsewhere, covering topics that range from fantasy to sex to politics. Within the last decade, anime and manga have become extremely popular in the United States. Mangatopia: Essays on Manga and Anime in the Modern World provides a sophisticated anthology of varied commentary from authors well versed in both formats. These essays provide insights unavailable on the Internet, giving the interested general reader in-depth information well beyond the basic, "Japanese Comics 101" level, and providing those who teach and write about manga and anime valuable knowledge to further expand their expertise. The topics addressed range widely across various artists and art styles, media methodology and theory, reception of manga and anime in different cultural markets, and fan behavior. Specific subjects covered include sexually explicit manga drawn and read by women; the roots of manga in Japanese and world film; the complexity of fan activities, including "cosplay," fan-drawn manga, and fans' highly specific predilections; right-wing manga; and manga about Hiroshima and despair following World War II. The book closes with an examination of the international appeal of manga and anime.

Manga and the Representation of Japanese History
Author: Roman Rosenbaum
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136224246
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
This edited collection explores how graphic art and in particular Japanese manga represent Japanese history. The articles explore the representation of history in manga from disciplines that include such diverse fields as literary studies, politics, history, cultural studies, linguistics, narratology, and semiotics. Despite this diversity of approaches all academics from these respective fields of study agree that manga pose a peculiarly contemporary appeal that transcends the limitation imposed by traditional approaches to the study and teaching of history. The representation of history via manga in Japan has a long and controversial historiographical dimension. Thereby manga and by extension graphic art in Japanese culture has become one of the world’s most powerful modes of expressing contemporary historical verisimilitude. The contributors to this volume elaborate how manga and by extension graphic art rewrites, reinvents and re-imagines the historicity and dialectic of bygone epochs in postwar and contemporary Japan. Manga and the Representation of Japanese History will be of interest to students and scholars of Asian studies, Asian history, Japanese culture and society, as well as art and visual culture

Los fantasmas de la Soledad
Author: Yankuik Itzaé
Publisher: Editorial Independiente
ISBN:
Category : Young Adult Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
Narracion del género realismo mágico con tintes existencialistas. En dónde el protagonista, sumido en la marginación social, explora el sin sentido de la vida material y la búsqueda de la verdad espiritual que da razón de ser a la existencia. La respuesta al papel que desempeñamos en el universo, al significado de la vida, y la armonía universal emergen como un secreto casi sagrado entre el lodo de una sociedad perdida y podrida. Y qué, sin embargo, al ser alcanzado, no exonera del sufrimiento, combustible necesario para la trascendencia del ser. Una historia tal vez trágica, pero a la vez refrescante para el alma. Cuyo mensaje acompañará a los que, solitarios, caminan sin rumbo, a pasos ciegos, en la oscuridad de la vida.

Pages : 288
Book Description
Soy es un libro basado a hechos reales de mi vida. Luego de haber practicado el cristianismo por más de 20 años, no entendía el por qué todavía sentía un bulto en mi espalda. Fue cuando entendí que en la iglesia no está lo que buscaba, lo encontré dentro de mí misma, por tal razón dejé de buscar afuera lo que está dentro de mí. Un día sentí una presencia que entró a mi cuarto y no me dio miedo, al contrario, me dio felicidad y mucha paz, y lo identifiqué como el Espíritu Santo y mis ángeles, y comenzaron a ponerme una especie de maya transparente alrededor de todo mi cuerpo día y noche, y comenzó una comunicación constante entre los ángeles y yo. Yo preguntaba y ellos me contestaban a través de telepatía y los sueños. Si todavía no sabes el propósito en tu vida y tienes preguntas que no han sido contestadas, este libro es para ti.
