Introduction: Bisexual (In)Visibility and/in Popular Culture
摘要
The focus of this collection is the imagistic representations of bisexuality and the ways in which bisexuality itself has been reproduced, discoursed, and (mis)understood within the cultural imagination vis-à-vis popular literary, social, and media forms. Much like Merl Storr’s defining work in the field, Bisexuality: A Critical Reader, this collection is “about bisexuality and not about bisexuals” (1999, 1); it is concerned not with the problematisation of “being bisexual”—a preoccupation of Storr’s writing—but with the cultural relevance and impact bisexuality has had (/is having) on and through popular forms of literature, culture, and media, today.
