Book Description
Hollywood and Africa - recycling the ‘Dark Continent’ myth from 1908–2020 is a study of over a century of stereotypical Hollywood film productions about Africa. It argues that the myth of the Dark Continent continues to influence Western cultural productions about Africa as a cognitive-based system of knowledge, especially in history, literature and film. Hollywood and Africa identifies the ‘colonial mastertext’ of the Dark Continent mythos by providing a historiographic genealogy and context for the term’s development and consolidation. An array of literary and paraliterary film adaptation theories are employed to analyse the deep genetic strands of Hollywood–Africa film adaptations. The mutations of the Dark Continent mythos across time and space are then tracked through the classical, neoclassical and new wave Hollywood–Africa phases in order to illustrate how Hollywood productions about Africa recycle, revise, reframe, reinforce, transpose, interrogate — and even critique — these tropes of Darkest Africa while sustaining the colonial mastertext and rising cyberactivism against Hollywood’s whitewashing of African history.

Book Description
Angela Kirin calls Australia home, but has lived in many places through her life—England, Scotland, China, Central America, and throughout Australia. She developed a passion for writing for young adults during 2005 while teaching English to primary school children in a tiny Chinese town called ‘Liyang’. ‘The inspiration for Doctor Elbows, the superhero, came from the constant attention and adulation I received from the Chinese children,’ Angela says. ‘At times it was overwhelming that these children looked upon me as a hero for leaving my country to teach them.’ While living and working with people of different cultures, interests, and beliefs, Angela always nurtured a fascination for reading and creating stories. This multicultural harmony is one of the prime themes throughout this, her first book in her superhero series . . . along with a good measure of action, danger, and fun. Angela hopes to fill this series with comical and sometimes thought-provoking messages for the reader who imagines and seeks.

Book Description
Framing Violence: Conflicting Images, Identities, and Discourses explores many of the questions surrounding challenges in framing the rising violence across the globe and in its emerging, new forms. The chapters in this volume provide multidisciplinary case studies and theoretical debates, with violence being discussed not only in its political form, but also in its domestic, financial, and artistic forms. This collection will provide a venue for discussions on the diverse issues surrounding the theme of violence and conflict from international and interdisciplinary perspectives, and divided into three parts, the first of which focuses on how the culture industry frames violence and violent actors. The second part investigates how violence is framed in legal structures and mediascapes. Finally, the third part of the book discusses the new conceptualisations in violence studies and covers chapters analysing artistic expressions of violence.
