Although Film Studies has successfully (re)turned attention to
matters of style and interpretation, its sibling discipline has
left the territory uncharted - until now. The question of how
television operates on a stylistic level has been critically
underexplored, despite being fundamental to our viewing experience.
This significant new work redresses a vital gap in Television
Studies by engaging with the stylistic dynamics of TV; exploring
the aesthetic properties and values of both the medium and
particular types of output (specific programmes); and raising
important questions about the way we judge television as both
cultural artifact and art form. Global Television: Aesthetics and
Style provides a unique and vital intervention in the field,
raising key questions about television's artistic properties and
possibilities. Through a series of case-studies by internationally
renowned scholars, the collection takes a radical step forward in
understanding TV's stylistic achievements.
