A wide range of accessible, and carefully researched contributions cover key aspects of the broader uses of manga by various communities, as welll as an in-depth examination of the distinctive language and communication properties of manga and implications for pedagogy, multimodal research, and translation. An ambitious collection, the result is a highly readable and thought-provoking book." --Craig Norris *** "Unique among topics are music in manga, impolite manga language, and manga as a research tool. Also different is the book's multimedia, futuristic capability with an online supplement featuring manga-inspired music, manga-related teaching resources, hyperlinks, and quick response 3-D printed bar codes. ...recommended for upper-level students, teachers who teach with comics and manga fans. Recommended." --Choice, Vol. 54, No. 4, December 2016 *** "Exceptionally informed and informative, offering a wealth of thoughtful and thought-provoking insights, 'Manga Vision: Cultural and Communicative Perspectives' is a unique and highly recommended addition to community and academic library Popular Culture collections in general, and Managa Art supplemental studies reading lists in particular." --Midwest Book Review, Reviewer's Bookwatch: November 2016, Bethany's Bookshelf (Series: Cultural Studies) Subject: Popular Culture, Cultural Studies, Comics, Manga, Anthropology, Art]

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fascinating insights on what Japanese manga and anime mean to artists, audiences, and fans in the United States and elsewhere, covering topics that range from fantasy to sex to politics. Within the last decade, anime and manga have become extremely popular in the United States. Mangatopia: Essays on Manga and Anime in the Modern World provides a sophisticated anthology of varied commentary from authors well versed in both formats. These essays provide insights unavailable on the Internet, giving the interested general reader in-depth information well beyond the basic, "Japanese Comics 101" level, and providing those who teach and write about manga and anime valuable knowledge to further expand their expertise. The topics addressed range widely across various artists and art styles, media methodology and theory, reception of manga and anime in different cultural markets, and fan behavior. Specific subjects covered include sexually explicit manga drawn and read by women; the roots of manga in Japanese and world film; the complexity of fan activities, including "cosplay," fan-drawn manga, and fans' highly specific predilections; right-wing manga; and manga about Hiroshima and despair following World War II. The book closes with an examination of the international appeal of manga and anime.

This book was released on 2022-06-24 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zulawnik focuses on the broad concept of ‘controversy’ and issues pertaining to the translation of politically and historically controversial texts in East Asia. The research methodology is exemplified through a case study in the form of the author’s translation of the best-selling Japanese graphic novel (manga) Manga Kenkanryū (Hate Hallyu: The Comic) by Sharin Yamano (2005), a work that has been problematised as an attack on South Korean culture and the Korean Wave. Issues analysed and discussed in the research include translation risk, ethics, a detailed methodology for the translation of so-called controversial texts exemplified through numerous thematically divided examples from the translation of the chosen Japanese text, as well as examples from a Korean language equivalent (Manhwa Hyeomillyu – Hate Japanese Wave), and definition and contextualisation of the concept of ‘controversy’. There has been limited research in the field of translation studies, which seeks to exemplify potential pragmatic approaches for the translation of politically-charged texts, particularly in multi-modal texts such as the graphic novel. It is hoped that Zulawnik’s research will serve both as a valuable source when examining South Korea–Japan relations and a theoretical and methodological base for further research and the development of an online augmented translation space with devices specifically suited for the translation of multi-modal texts such as – but not limited to – graphic novels and visual encyclopaedias.
