Beschreibung
Re-reading Popular Culture is an entertaining investigation of the meanings and value of popular culture today. It explores the theme of cultural citizenship by combining textual analysis and media reception theory to analyze popular culture. * Includes such contemporary issues as the rewriting of masculinity after the success of feminism, and the layers of meaning in semi-public and private talk of multiculturalism and ethnicity * Traces its topics across a variety of media forms and texts, including sports; detective fiction and police series; and children's television and games * Clearly and accessibly written for the student, scholar, and general reader.
Rezensionen
"A bold book, written with passion and verve, that challenges us to take a serious look at the role of popular culture in creating citizenship and democracy. It is that rare thing: a brilliant book for studying methods but also a political call for engagement."
"Hitting all the highlights of popular culture analysis, Joke Hermes reasserts the thesis that popular culture is a domain in which we practice the reinvention of who we are, while acknowledging the pitfalls of such a belief."
