Celebrity: Key Ideas in Media and Cultural Studies will introduce
students to the key terms and concepts, dilemmas and issues that
are central to the study and critical understanding of celebrity.
There is an imagined relational trajectory that the book intends to
navigate. While each chapter will stand as a coherent block of
knowledge, analysis and appreciation, conversations and connections
will also be foregrounded, and 'echo' summaries will enable the
reader to follow the connections in the arguments that are made.
The book builds a critical story about celebrity that takes in
image production, branding and marketing, the political economy of
celebrity, celebrity in the everyday, identity politics, structures
of feeling and narratives of damage, and celebrity in relation to
resistant strategies and energies. Topical, current and popular
examples will be utilised to bring the material alive for the
reader.
