本书的主题力图揭示文化原理与通俗文化之间的关系,分析通俗文化在当今社会观念体系发生作用的机理,同时介绍了文化原理与通俗各个流派的理论和分析方法,并在每章结尾提供了全面丰富的阅读材料。经过广泛修政的第三版,新增加了同性恋理论,对浪漫文学,女性杂志,女权主义的社会实践,男性研究进行了扩展,补充了新的材料和插图。本书适合文化研究,媒体研究,传播学、文化社会学、通俗文化等专业的大学本科生和研究生学习使用。
In writing the third edition I have sought to improve and to expand the material in the first two editions of this book. To achieve this I have revised and I have rewritten; much more extensively than in the second edition. I have also added new material to most of the chapters (the book has grown from a first edition of around 65,000 words to a third edition in excess of 100,000 words). This is most evident in the renamed, and reorganised, Chapter 6, where I have added a new section on Queer Theory, and where I have extended the section on Reading Womens Magazines. Perhaps the most visible change is the addition of illustrations, and the inclusion of a list of web sites useful to the student of cultural theory and popular culture.
