Beschreibungen

<span><span>Culture and the Literary</span><span> is a study of how cultural codes are constructed, consumed and conveyed as represented in selected works of fiction and non-fiction. <br><br>Examining cultural studies as a discipline by revisiting some of its seminal figures, the book includes a study of selected literary as well as non-fictional texts. It offers a unique combination of three major theoretical frames: memory studies, thing theory, and affect studies. <br><br>Drawing on fictional representations, theoretical frames and historical events, this book aims to provide a unique perspective into how culture as a phenomenon is represented, reified and re-membered in the world we inhabit today. </span></span>
