The Weight of Images: Affect, Body Image and Fat in the Media
Katariina Kyrola
The Weight of Images explores the ways in which media images can train their viewers' bodies. Proposing a shift away from an understanding of spectatorship as being constituted by acts of the mind, this book favours a theorization of relations between bodies and images as visceral.
