This collection re-imagines the study of English and media in a way
that decentralises the text (e.g. romantic poetry or film noir) or
media formats/platforms (e.g. broadcast media/new media). Instead,
the authors work across boundaries in meaningful thematic contexts
that reflect the ways in which people engage with reading,
watching, making, and listening in their textual lives. In so
doing, this project recasts both subjects as combined in a more
reflexive, critical space for the study of our everyday social and
cultural interactions. Across the chapters, the authors present
applicable learning and teaching strategies that weave together art
works, films, social practices, creativity, 'viral' media, theater,
TV, social media, videogames, and literature. The culmination of
this range of strategies is a reclaimed 'blue skies' approach to
progressive textual education, free from constraining shackles of
outdated ideas about textual categories and value that have
hitherto alienated generations of students and both English and
media from themselves.
