America Toons In A History Of Television Animation SC

Description

Animation has been part of television since the start of the medium but it has rarely received unbiased recognition from media scholars. This book takes a serious look at the whole genre of television animation, from the early themes and practices through the evolution of the art to the present day. By taking seriously something often thought to be frivolous, the book provides a framework for understanding the persistent presence of television animation in the American media and how surprisingly influential it has been.
