Drawing on case studies of specific fan groups, from Elvis impersonators to X-Philes and Trekkers, Hills discusses a range of approaches to fandom, from the Frankfurt School to psychoanalytic readings, and asks whether the development of new media creates the possibility of new forms of fandom. Fan Cultures also explores the notion of ""fan cults"" or followings, considering how media fans perform the distinctions of 'cult' status. 410 0$aSussex Studies in Culture and Communication 606 $aFans (Persons)$xPsychology 606 $aSubculture 606 $aTelevision viewers$xPsychology 606 $aCelebrities in mass media 606 $aMotion picture actors and actresses 615 0$aFans (Persons)$xPsychology. 615 0$aSubculture. 615 0$aTelevision viewers$xPsychology. 615 0$aCelebrities in mass media. 615 0$aMotion picture actors and actresses. 676 $a306.1 700 $aHills$b Matt$f1971-,$01128526 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783656803321 996 $aFan cultures$93702497 997 $aUNINA
