Inhalt:
The new edition of this highly successful text provides a comprehensive introduction to the British tradition of Cultural Studies. The British school has been a major influence in the humanities and social sciences, radically redefining the study of popular culture, the media and everyday life. Graeme Turner offers an accessible overview to the central themes that have informed British Cultural Studies; language, semiotics, Marxism and ideology, individualism and subjectivity and discourse. In the first part of the book Turner presents a history of British cultural studies focusing on the work of such pioneers as Raymond Williams, Richard Hoggart, E. P. Thompson, Stuart Hall and the Birmingham Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies. In the second section he focuses on the central categories of cultural studies; text and textuality, audiences, everyday life and the concept of ideology
Inhalt:
The second edition is fully revised to include issues in Cultural Studies and to update key debates and references. New sections include the influence of postmodernism, the politics of pleasure identified with the 'New Revisionism', Foucault and discourse, the politics of cultural studies, Gender and Race in the history of British Cultural Studies, and a fully updated and comprehensive bibliography
