Spectacle and Topophilia - Reading Early Modern and Postmodern Hispanic Cultures (Paperback, New)

This volume explores the intersection between theories of the modern spectacle--from Jose Antonio Maravall's conceptualization of the spectacular culture of the baroque to the Frankfurt School's theorization of mass culture, to Baudrillard's notion of the simulacrum, to Guy Debord's understanding of the society of the spectacle--and the findings of the emerging fields of urban studies, landscape studies, and, generally speaking, studies of space.
