Abstract |
Comics and graphic novels are important components of popular culture and have international influence. They engage readers across all age groups and across fiction and non-fiction genres. They address many cultural and social ideas, histories, languages, and concepts with engaging stories and narratives. This book provides international perspectives on comics and graphic novels in various contexts for education that may inform social cognition, curriculum theory, and cultural studies. Interdisciplinary perspectives are highlighted to showcase research, theory, and practices in the use of comics and graphic novels. Complexity within this genre is discussed to provide new and updated perspectives on the theory and practice of comics and graphic novels for their reflection of and influence on culture, their multimodal role in content area literacy, and their influence across social contexts. |
