Contexts of Violence in Comics (Routledge Advances in Comics Studies)

This book is part of a nuanced two-volume examination of the ways in which violence in comics is presented in different texts, genres, cultures and contexts. Contexts of Violence in Comics asks the reader to consider the ways in which violence and its representations may be enabled or restricted by the contexts in which they take place. It analyzes how structures and organising principles, be they cultural, historical, legal, political or spatial, might encourage, demand or prevent violence. It deals with the issue of scale: violence in the context of war versus violence in the context of an individual murder, and provides insights into the context of war and peace, ethnic and identity-based violence, as well as examining issues of justice and memory. This will be a key text and essential reference for scholars and students at all levels in Comics Studies, and Cultural and Media Studies more generally.

Counsellors are confronted with a variety of day-to-day problems. This alphabetically-arranged reference book should be of use to counsellors faced with doubts or disquiet, or just needing information. The book offers ideas, evidence, arguments and occasionally advice in entries which include anger, beginnings, boundaries, collusion, complaints, contracts, difficult clients, empathy, fees, frequency, sexual attraction, trust and zest. The book is a resource for students and practising counsellors working in a variety of settings, from health and social care to education and occupational health. The authors have identified the need for a source book that is easily and quickly accessible and have produced a book which meets that need, but which is also reassuring to read straight through as it highlights common problems and suggests ways of managing them. This book should be of interest to counsellors; students and practitioners of healthcare; social workers; and psychologists.

This book looks at comics through the lens of Art History, examining the past influence of art-historical methodologies on comics scholarship to scope how they can be applied to Comics Studies in the present and future. It unearths how early comics scholars deployed art-historical approaches, including stylistic analysis, iconography, Cultural History and the social history of art, and proposes how such methodologies, updated in light of disciplinary developments within Art History, could be usefully adopted in the study of comics today. Through a series of indicative case studies of British and American comics like Eagle, The Mighty Thor, 2000AD, Escape and Heartbreak Hotel, it argues that art-historical methods better address overlooked aspects of visual and material form. Bringing Art History back into the interdisciplinary nexus of comics scholarship raises some fundamental questions about the categories, frameworks and values underlying contemporary Comics Studies.
