We live in a world of the image. In many ways, images have replaced
words as the defining aspect of cultural identity, whilst at the
same time they have become part of our global culture. The rapidly
developing discipline of visual cultural studies has become the key
ares for examining the issues of our age. This book explains issues
and concepts such as psychoanalysis, cultural theory,
psotmodernism, queer theory, gender studies and narrative theory.
The major theorists are all covered as the authors look at the
significance of the visual in the works of Foucault, Barthes,
Lacan, Derrida, Baudrillard and Guattari. Taking up a range of
themes such as spectatorship, pleasure, power, doubles,
hallucination and the frame, the book explains them within the
context of these theoretical developments.
