"Camp" is often associated with glamour, surfaces and an
ostentatious display of chic, but as these authors argue, there is
an underside to it that has often gone unnoticed: camp's
simultaneous investment in dirt, vulgarity, the discarded and
rejected, the abject. This book explores how camp challenges and at
the same time celebrates what is arguably the single most important
and foundational cultural division, that between the dirty and the
clean. In refocusing camp as a phenomenon of the dark underside as
much as of the glamorous surface, the collection hopes to offer an
important contribution to our understanding of the cultural
politics and aesthetics of camp.
