In High Theory/Low Culture , Brottman uses the tools of 'high'
cultural theory to examine many areas of today's popular culture,
including style magazines, sport, shopping, tabloid newspapers,
horror movies and pornography. In doing so, she not only
demonstrates the practical use of 'high' theory as it relates to
our everyday world, but she also investigates the kinds of 'low'
culture that are regularly dismissed by academic scholars. Through
a close examination of these cultural forms, Brottman reveals how
the kinds of popular culture that we usually take for granted are,
in fact, far more complex and sophisticated than is normally
assumed.
