[Commlist] Journal of Popular Television 11.1 published (Special Issue: 'Bridgerton')

Intellect is pleased to announce that Journal of Popular Television 11.1 
is out now!


Special Issue: ‘Bridgerton’


This special mini-issue on Netflix’s TV series, Bridgerton 
(2020–present), highlights the power of period drama television in its 
interrogation of historical and contemporary issues. The authors 
represent different disciplines, from literature and history to 
communications and media studies, and the formal and reflective essays 
that follow, combine our perspectives as both academics and fans of the 
period romance genre. Lastly, this issue describes how the ‘Bridgerton 
experience’ represents the multiple ways in which fans consume this 
series as it continues to shape our fantasies about the past.

Aims & Scope


Journal of Popular Televisionis an international, peer-reviewed journal 
designed to promote and encourage scholarship on all aspects of popular 
television, whether fictional or non-fictional, from docudramas and 
sports to news and comedy. The journal is rooted in the belief that 
popular television continues to play a major cultural, political and 
social role, and thus seeks interdisciplinary contributions that 
contextualize programmes, genres, personalities and phenomena. The 
journal seeks to be equally responsive to contemporary developments in 
television production and within television criticism and theory, as to 
historical approaches and re-evaluation of canonical and non-canonical 
texts.
