Description: Title: Her Stories: Daytime Soap Opera and US Television History Author: Levine, Elana Publisher: Duke University Press Binding: Paperback Pages: 400 Dimensions: 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.10d Product Weight: 1.2 lbs. Language: English ISBN: 9781478008019 Since the debut of These Are My Children in 1949, the daytime television soap opera has been foundational to the history of the medium as an economic, creative, technological, social, and cultural institution. In Her Stories, Elana Levine draws on archival research and her experience as a longtime soap fan to provide an in-depth history of the daytime television soap opera as a uniquely gendered cultural form and a central force in the economic and social influence of network television. Closely observing the production, promotion, reception, and narrative strategies of the soaps, Levine examines two intersecting developments: the role soap operas have played in shaping cultural understandings of gender and the rise and fall of broadcast network television as a culture industry. In so doing, she foregrounds how soap operas have revealed changing conceptions of gender and femininity as imagined by and reflected on the television screen.
