Expanded Course Description
Presently, manga constitutes about 40% of the total annual publication in Japan. It is arguably the most accessible form of entertainment and source of information on contemporary issues and concerns. But what is manga? How does it work? What is the visual-verbal language distinct to this media? What exactly is its place in contemporary Japanese society? This course traces the history of manga from the nineteenth century to the present. The purpose of this course is twofold. One is to be able to identify the narrative techniques of postwar manga by periods and genres. The other is to examine the way in which key socio-political issues are addressed and reflected in the manga medium.
