The volumes in the Animation: Key Films/Filmmakers series aim to both prompt and collect current and critical scholarship surrounding the work of selected animated films and filmmakers. Each volume focuses on the work of a specific film or filmmaker, situating the film or filmmaker within historical and critical contexts. The volumes are the first substantial study on the key films and filmmakers in question, contributing to the development of animation studies as a significant area of study in the contemporary media landscape.
