Performativity, Cultural Construction, and the Graphic Narrative
draws on performance studies scholarship to understand the social
impact of graphic novels and their sociopolitical function.
Addressing issues of race, gender, ethnicity, race, war, mental
illness, and the environment, the volume encompasses the diversity
and variety inherent in the graphic narrative medium. Informed by
the scholarship of Dwight Conquergood and his model for performance
praxis, this collection of essays makes links between these
seemingly disparate areas of study to open new avenues of research
for comics and graphic narratives. An international team of authors
offer a detailed analysis of new and classical graphic texts from
Britain, Iran, India, and Canada as well as the United States.

languages, English, and gender studies, and anyone with an interest

potential of graphic narratives.
