The Animation Studies Reader brings together both key writings
within animation studies and new material in emerging areas of the
field. The collection provides readers with seminal texts that
ground animation studies within the contexts of theory and
aesthetics, form and genre, and issues of representation. The first
section collates key readings on animation theory, on how we might
conceptualise animation, and on some of the fundamental qualities
of animation. New material is also introduced in this section
specifically addressing questions raised by the nature, style and
materiality of animation. The second section outlines some of the
main forms that animation takes, which includes discussions of
genre. Although this section cannot be exhaustive, the material
chosen is particularly useful as it provides samples of analysis
that can illuminate some of the issues the first section of the
book raises. The third section focuses on issues of representation
and how the medium of animation might have an impact on how bodies,
gender, sexuality, race and ethnicity are represented. These
representations can only be read through an understanding of the
questions that the first two sections of the book raise; we can
only decode these representations if we take into account form and
genre, and theoretical conceptualisations such as visual pleasure,
spectacle, the uncanny, realism etc.
