In a series of readings and meditations, Robert Miklitsch investigates the postmodern nexus between elite and popular culture as it occurs in the audiovisual fields of film, music, and television—ranging from Gershwin to gangsta rap, Tarantino to Tongues Untied, Tony Soprano to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Miklitsch argues that the aim of critical theory in the new century will be to describe and explain these commodities in ever greater phenomenological detail without losing touch with those evaluative criteria that have historically sustained both Kulturkritik and classical aesthetics.SUNY series in postmodern culture.Television broadcastingSocial aspectsUnited StatesMotion picturesSocial aspectsUnited StatesPopular musicSocial aspectsUnited StatesPopular cultureUnited StatesCulture in motion picturesTelevision broadcastingSocial aspectsMotion picturesSocial aspectsPopular musicSocial aspectsPopular cultureCulture in motion pictures.302.23Miklitsch Robert1953-1106326MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828806803321Roll over Adorno3972461UNINA
