Description
This edited volume sheds light on the unique capacity of the comics medium for redrawing histories and for exploring hidden, forbidden or imagined spaces. Studying a variety of texts from the French-speaking world, it considers how
(BD) and graphic novels can highlight environmental, gender, racial, religious, political and social questions. It also demonstrates how BD can offer readers new perspectives through formal experiment and through reworking and subverting dominant iconographies. The contributions in this volume showcase how the comic medium, through the combination of text and image, engages with notions of voice, power, bias and perspective, and can be used as a pedagogical tool and a form of resistance to discuss diversity, decolonisation, inclusion and social justice issues.
