Google Preview: Queering Italian Media analyzes and offers queer readings of LGBTQIA+ representation in Italian media. The contributors apply various understandings of "queer" and "media" as they discuss the relationship between the political and social lives of queer populations in Italy and investigate their representations in film, news media, television, social media, and viewer-generated media sites. Queering Italian Media examines queer positionality, challenges notions of Italianness as it relates to and is reflected in media, and queers understandings of viewer engagement and participation in media consumption and production.; Chapter One: The Lavorini Case: the Mediatic Confection of the Homosexual Ogres and the Homosexual Counterattack Alessio Ponzio Chapter Two: We Want Lesbians Too: A Lesbian-Feminist Counter-History Inspired by We Want Roses Too Alessia Palanti Chapter Three: A Queerer Road: Crossing Borders on and off the Screen in Corazones de Mujer Sole Anatrone Chapter Four: The Non-normative Potential of Mainstream Film Dom Holdaway Chapter Five: An all Italian Game of Thrones: A Social Media Investigation of Maria de Filippi's Gay Male Version of the Trash, Dating Show Uomini e Donne Luca Malici Chapter Six: Queer Italian Communities and Alternative Televisual Re/Mediations Julia Heim; Google Preview content
