New Editors Release Current Issue of Watcher Junior

10/28/2014

1 Comment

 
Watcher Junior: The Undergraduate Journal of Whedon Studies releases its new issue this month under the editorial leadership of Jodie A. Kreider and Meghan K. Winchell. Kreider is a Lecturer in the History Department and teaches courses on British and European history as well as gender and cultural studies at the University of Denver. Winchell is associate professor of history and chair of the History Department at Nebraska Wesleyan University, where she teaches courses on United States history, race, and gender. Kreider and Winchell share more than ten years of experience teaching undergraduate seminars on Whedonverse topics. They are the coeditors of Buffy in the Classroom: Essays on Teaching with the Vampire Slayer (McFarland, 2010). Kreider and Winchell take over the position from David Kociemba, Lecturer in the Department of Media and Visual Arts at Emerson College, Boston, Massachusetts, who began editing the journal in 2009 with Kristin Romanelli who served as Web Editor and Social Media Editor. She is the Managing Editor of Film Score Monthly and the Associate Director of Digital Media for the Office of Alumni Relations at Northeastern University. The journal began publication in 2005 under the editorial leadership of Lynn Y. Edwards and Katy Stevens.

This month’s issue features five articles that explore topics in Dollhouse, Firefly, Marvel’s The Avengers and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. One provides critical analysis of space in the Los Angeles Dollhouse, another examines Whedon’s take on the action film, while a third offers a comparison between Inara Serra’s role as companion and Japanese Geisha culture. This issue also includes two essays that analyze Buffy Summers; one likens her to Sisyphus and another compares two “different models of female military leadership” as seen through Buffy and Xena, Warrior Princess.

Nebraska Wesleyan University sponsors Watcher Junior which is published with the support of the Whedon Studies Association.

This new edition has been the most exciting one that I was watching from the very first time. I am really interested to know more about the same ideas that you are having in this post.
