In academic as well as in public debates, audiovisual media have
often been accused of perpetuating gender stereotypes and of
confronting viewers time and again with traditional role models and
binary concepts of masculinity and femininity. In recent years,
films, television series and music videos increasingly have shown
women and men who transgress the traditional gender dichotomy. One
of the central ideas behind this volume is the attempt to bring
together explorations of 'gendering' in different audiovisual
media. The contributions seek to explore in particular shifting
constructions of femininity and masculinity and aim to provide
further insight into the media- and genre-specific ways of
constructing, perpetuating and challenging gender concepts in
audiovisual media, taking into consideration the interplay of the
different levels on which gendering occurs in them. Thus, two
articles in the present volume address the processes of
constructing, perpetuating and challenging notions of femininity
and masculinity in music videos, while other contributions are
dedicated to the analysis of gendering in films and/or TV series.
