This collection draws together recent work by new and emerging
scholars which examines the representation of alienation and
resistance in texts and images, both modern and traditional. The
essays collected here incorporate both "high" and "low" culture,
covering a wide range of disciplines from traditional literary
sources to the more modern mediums of film and comic. Informing
each of the contributions is one overriding question: what are the
roles, forms, and conditions of alienation and resistance in our
culture and its diverse media? The contributors to this collection
find examples of both alienation and resistance everywhere, from
sixteenth century drama to contemporary fiction, from American
comics to Eastern European cinema, from representations of the body
to the site of the body itself. In seeking out these
representations of alienation and resistance, the essays begin also
to probe the limits and limitations of such terms. As such, the
collection as a whole offers both a broad overview of the field of
play as it stands today and makes tentative suggestions as to
potential paths of future inquiry.
