Professor of Japanese and Film and Media Studies in the Dept. of Modern Languages and Cultures, and Shota T. Ogawa (Graduate Program in Visual and Cultural Studies ’14), Assistant Professor at Nagoya University, Japan.
<span style="color:#212529;background:white">A useful resource for students and scholars of Japanese studies, film studies, and cultural studies more broadly, the volume brings together the work of twenty-one authors with diverse backgrounds, including three
University of Rochester alumni, to illuminate the hybridity of approaches that define the field. Divided into four parts, it recasts traditional questions of authorship, genre, and industry in broad conceptual frameworks such as gender, media theory, archive
studies, and neoliberalism.</span></span><o:p></o:p></p>

century to the formation of the film industry in the twentieth century, culminating in cinema’s migration to gaming, surveillance video, and other new media platforms of the twenty-first century.</span></span><span style="font-size:12.0pt">
