Produktinformationen zu „Zizek and the Media / Theory and Media (ePub)“
Slavoj Zizek reaches the parts of the media that other theorists
cannot. With sources ranging from Thomas Aquinas to Quentin
Tarantino and Desperate Housewives to Dostoyevsky, Zizek mixes high
theory with low culture more engagingly than any other thinker
alive today. His prolific output includes such media friendly
content as a TV series (The Pervert's Guide to Cinema) a
documentary movie (Zizek!) and a wealth of YouTube clips. A
celebrity academic, he walks the media talk.
Zizek and the Media provides a systematic and
approachable introduction to the main concepts and themes of
Zizek's work, and their particular implications for the study of
the media. The book:
* Describes the radical nature of Zizek's media politics
* Uses Zizekian insights to expose the profound intellectual
limitations of conventional approaches to the media
* Explores the psychoanalytical and philosophical roots of
Zizek's work
* Provides the reader with Zizekian tools to uncover the hidden
ideologies of everyday media content;
Explains the ultimate seriousness that underlies his numerous
jokes.
As likely to discuss Homer's Springfield as Ithaca, Zizek is
shown to be the ideal guide for today's mediascape.
