Body, Capital and Screens: Visual Media and the Healthy Self in the
20th Century brings together new research from leading scholars
from Europe and North America working at the intersection of film
and media studies and social and cultural history of the body. The
volume focuses on visual media in the twentieth century in Europe
and the U.S. that informed and educated people about life and
health as well as practices improving them. Through a series of
in-depth case studies, the contributors to this volume investigate
the relationships between film/television, private and public
actors of the health sector and economic developments. The book
explores the performative and interactive power of these visual
media on individual health understandings, perceptions and
practices. Body, Capital and Screens aims to better understand how
bodily health has evolved as a form of capital throughout the
century.
