The essays in this collection present communities beset by
unexpected social and physical events. Some outline immediate
responses that soon pass and some that will not go away. Who would
have foreseen that Elvis would be a phenomenon apparently as
lasting as the faces on Mount Rushmore? Cultural history will not
allow us to forget the H. G. Wells account of the Martian attack,
nor can we ever forget the continued terror of the Chernobyl
explosion. Ordinary Reactions to Extraordinary Events catalogues on
the Geiger counter of human emotions societal reactions to events
both earthshaking and culture-disturbing.
