Containing new thinking and original surveys, Media &
Cultural Theory brings together leading international scholars to
address key issues and debates within media and cultural
studies.
Through the use of contemporary media and film texts such as
Bridget Jonesa (TM) Diary and The Lord of the Rings trilogy, and
using case studies of the USA and the UK after September 11th,
James Curran and David Morley examine central topics including:
- media representations of the new woman in contemporary
society
- the creation of self in lifestyle media
- the nature of globalization
- the rise of digital actors and media.
Ideal as a course reader, with each essay covering a different
major area or advance in original research, Media & Cultural
Theory is global in its reach. Through its engagement with broad
questions, it is an invaluable book that can be applied to the
studies of media and cultural studies students the English-speaking
world over.
