Contributors examine various concepts such as vulnerability, resilience, precarity, and resistance within the Anglophone world by analyzing memoirs, films, TV series, and crime and literary fiction across India, Ireland, Canada, Australia, the US, and the UK. Through a comprehensive analysis of these diverse narratives, the chapters investigate how literary and media representations of precarious conditions intersect with gender and ethnic identities, leading to the emergence of structural forms of vulnerability that perpetuate and justify oppression. At the same time, they also explore individual and collective resistance and resilience against these oppressive forces. Drawing upon a range of interdisciplinary fields such as Animal Studies, Critical Race Studies, Human Rights Studies, Post-Humanism, and Postcolonialism, the book offers insightful perspectives and valuable insights into the multifaceted dynamics of gender violence, vulnerability, and resistance in the global context. This book will appeal to scholars and researchers in Gender Studies, Media Studies, Sociology, Culture, Literature, and History, as well as anyone interested in understanding the complex interplay between culture, power, and social identities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Open Access book delves into the intricate cultural portrayal of gender violence, vulnerability, and resistance, with a specific emphasis on the transnational dimensions of contemporary visual and literary cultures in English.
