Beschreibung / Abstract

Trans*Time is the first international, media and comparative approach to the representation of trans* characters in series in Europe. Trans* visibility has reached a peak in recent years, so much so, that we can state that we are witnessing a primetime, or trans* time, in television and digital streaming series. This visibility has occurred concurrently with a process of social popularization and academic legitimization of the series. .Paradoxically, trans* people face ever mounting discrimination, insidious violence and fatal murder rates. Following the insight that these series generate, offer, and to a certain extent promote models of society and identification, it seems urgent to ask what may be going wrong. This book tackles this issue by closely examining the multimodal representations of trans* people in this unprecedented popular medium in France, Great Britain, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain and the Netherlands. creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/
