Sitting prominently at the hearth of our homes, television serves
as a voice of our modern time. Given our media-saturated society
and television's prominent voice and place in the home, it is
likely we learn about our society and selves through these stories.
These narratives are not simply entertainment, but powerful
socializing agents that shape and reflect the world and our role in
it. Television and the Self: Knowledge, Identity, and Media
Representation brings together a diverse group of scholars to
investigate the role television plays in shaping our understanding
of self and family. This edited collection's rich and diverse
research demonstrates how television plays an important role in
negotiating self, and goes far beyond the treacly "very special"
episodes found in family sit-coms in the 1980s. Instead, the
authors show how television reflects our reality and helps us to
sort out what it means to be a twenty-first-century man or woman.
