Yazar: Clarissa Smith

Clarissa Smith is Senior Lecturer in Media & Cultural Studies at the University of Sunderland. Her research and publications focus on the expanding sexual sphere for heterosexual women: its institutional practices, representational strategies, uses and meanings. She also researches the histories and formations of pornography and the ways in which representations of sex have entered mainstream media. Her research employs audience research in order to understand the particular pleasures of sexual representations and the ways in which these cultural products are embedded in the practices of everyday life.
