University of Minnesota Press Presents Mechademia 4: War/Time

The provocative manga and anime that reflect Japan's attempts to come to terms with militarism, violence, and defeat



MECHADEMIA 4: War/Time
By Frenchy Lunning
University of Minnesota Press | 366 pages | 2009
ISBN 978-0-8166-6749-9 | paperback | $21.95

Delving into topics ranging from the production of wartime propaganda to the multimedia adaptations of romance narrative, contributors to the fourth volume in the Mechademia series address the political, cultural, and technological continuum between war and the everyday time of orderly social productivity that is reflected, confronted, and changed in manga, anime, and other forms of Japanese popular culture.

Frenchy Lunning is professor of liberal arts at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and codirector of SGMS: Schoolgirls and Mobilesuits, a weekend workshop there.
