"Will be a very useful tool for any student trying to make sense of
the vast expanses of contemporary cultural theory and criticism.
Well-written and admirably self-reflective, it combines rigorous
explications and applications of many of the most influential
concepts and theorists." - Lawrence Grossberg, University of North
Carolina "Accessible and insightful throughout; offering help to
both experienced and inexperienced students of cultural theory.
Highly recommended." - John Storey, University of Sunderland Doing
Cultural Theory teaches more than just the basics of cultural
theory. It unpacks its complexities with real-life examples, and
shows readers how to link theory and practice. This book: Offers
accessible introductions to how cultural studies has engaged with
key theories in structuralism, poststructuralism and postmodernism
Teaches straightforward ways of practising these theories so
students learn to think for themselves Uses 'practice' boxes to
show students how to apply cultural theory in the real world Guides
students through the literature with carefully selected further
reading recommendation. Other textbooks only show how others have
analyzed and interpreted the world. Doing Cultural Theory takes it
a step further and teaches students step-by-step how to do cultural
theory for themselves.
