Baseball stadia are places of memory, identity, athletic and
architectural accomplishment. They are sites capable of arousing
passion, sentimentality and a sense of community. The baseball
stadium provides a unique lens through which to understand, explore
and expand an understanding of communication theories. While
baseball has previously been explored by scholars, this volume
introduces the stadium as a way of exploring communication and
communication theories through an examination of the four discrete
themes that frame the organization of this work: community and
communication, fandom and communication, memory and communication,
and commodification and communication. This volume offers a unique
approach to those interested in communication theory, popular
culture, sports management, and people environment studies.
