Through a gendered analysis of the culture-led event, Hull UK City of Culture 2017, this work expands epistemological perspectives relevant to the study of events in general and City/ Capital of Culture initiatives in particular. Driven by a feminist, collaborative methodological approach, the book draws on four years of ethnographic, qualitative research in the city of Hull and its celebration of the title, UK City of Culture in 2017 and provides an in-depth analysis of how audiences engage, performances enact, and infrastructures condition the production of cultures of gender equality in the citywide celebration.
This will be a valuable resource for upper-level students and academics in the field of Event Studies, Cultural Policy, Geography, Anthropology and Gender Studies.
Reviews / Votes
This book is a very successful plea: the author convincingly demonstrates how important it is to consider gender in events-not only for events with a gender theme, but particularly for those that do not address gender at all. And while Barbara Grabher's work certainly is of scholarly interest, it reaches beyond academia-or should: her results have important implications for event organizers, sponsors, and policymakers, in particular.- Cora Gaebel, University of Cologne, Journal of Festive Studies

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
