Proposed Panel: Gender Violence in Contemporary European Television Drama
Abigail Loxham (University of Liverpool) and Fiona Noble (University of Stirling)

Gender violence is one of the most prominent and pressing issues of the contemporary moment. While hashtag-based
movements such as #MeToo have generated widespread global thinking and debates on and around this topic, nationally
specific iterations of gender violence and its place within and impact upon society are far more complex and nuanced.
Our proposed panel for the above conference seeks to interrogate ways in which gender violence is made visible and
audible in European television drama. Our two contributions will deal with Spanish television/streaming, and we are keen
to incorporate other European perspectives and contexts to facilitate a more comparative and nuanced approach to the
issue.

If interested in participating, please send an abstract (300 words) and a brief bio to us ([log in to unmask] /
