- Summary:
-
This is a guide to the changing meanings and issues in Cultural Studies and the broader study of culture. Over 300 extensive entries on key terms present cultural theory as an active and continuing set of debates, which challenge received attitudes and seek to redefine current issues in a productive way. These living theories inform our thinking in a range of academic areas, and the key theoretical issues travel across many different disciplines. There is no prescribed single route into the glossary but many possible pathways and networks; the entries refer readers to related concepts, and to studies beyond the covers of this text. Fields covered include Feminism, Marxism, Psychoanalysis, Structuralism, Poststructuralism, Discourse, Postmodernism, Postcolonialism, Literary Criticism, and Aesthetic Theory, Film, Media and Popular Culture, Sociology of Culture, Information Theory.
