,typos
{{wiktionaryTop}}The concept of '''gaze''' (often also called '''the gaze''' or, in French, ''le regard''), in analysing [[Visual perception|visual]] [[Mass media|media]], is one that deals with how an audience views other people presented. The concept of the gaze became popular with the rise of postmodern philosophy and social theory and was first discussed by [[1960s]] [[France|French]] [[intellectuals]], namely [[Foucault]]'s description of the [[medical gaze]] and [[Lacan]]'s analysis of the gaze's role in the [[mirror stage]] development of the human [[psyche]]. This concept is extended in the framework of [[Feminism|feminist]] theory, where it can deal with how [[man|men]] look at [[woman|women]], how women look at themselves and other women, and the effects surrounding this.{{Bottom}}
