We immerse ourselves daily in expressions of popular
culture-YouTube videos, hip hop music, movies, adverts, greeting
cards, videogames, and comics, to name just a few possibilities-and
far too often we pay only scant critical attention to them. The
essays in this collection redress this situation by probing a wide
range of topics within the field of popular culture studies.
Written in engaging and jargon-free prose, contributions critically
examine various offerings in film, television, social media, music,
literature, sports, and related areas. Moreover, they often pay
special attention to the ways in which these pop culture artefacts
intersect with issues of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual
orientation, age, and ability. Providing a rich mixture of broad
perspectives and intriguing case studies, the essays form a
compelling mosaic of findings and viewpoints on popular culture.
Exploring everything from toxic masculinity in twenty-first century
television programmes to gendered greeting cards and adult
colouring books, this provocative volume is essential reading for
anyone interested in that fabricated and all-pervasive environment
we call popular culture.
