ANZ 245 Animals in Popular Culture

Intermediate Writing. Animals in Popular Culture looks at how the use and representation of animals in popular and mass-mediated culture-in genres like film and television, fiction, animation and comic books, art, and the Internet-shape and reveal cultural values. In addition, how animals are represented in popular culture in turn shapes how animals are treated in everyday society. By studying selected elements of popular culture, students will also look at how we understand and represent concepts like "human," "nature," and "culture."
