This issue of the journal Latente features a diverse miscellany that explores various manifestations of audiovisual language and its complex intersections with myth, identity, and popular culture. The collected articles analyze topics ranging from the endurance of classical and Celtic mythology in contemporary cinema and animation to the emerging narratives of modern horror and the deconstruction of 21st-century female political icons. Furthermore, the volume examines regional linguistic identity within national performing arts, complementing these scholarly contributions with specialized interviews and critical reviews of recent literature.
