A Short History of Cultural Studies by John Hartley

A Short History of Cultural Studies by John Hartley

This is the first volume to capture the essence of the burgeoning field of cultural studies in a concise and accessible manner. Other books have explored the British and North American traditions, but this is the first guide to the ideas, purposes and controversies that have shaped the subject. The author sheds new light on neglected pioneers and a clear route map through the terrain. He provides lively critical narratives on a dazzling array of key figures including, Arnold, Barrell, Bennett, Carey, Fiske, Foucault, Grossberg, Hall, Hawkes, hooks, Hoggart, Leadbeater, Lissistzky, Malevich, Marx, McLuhan, McRobbie, D Miller, T Miller, Morris, Quiller-Couch, Ross, Shaw, Urry, Williams, Wilson, Wolfe and Woolf. Hartley also examines a host of central themes in the subject including literary and political writing, publishing, civic humanism, political economy and Marxism, sociology, feminism, anthropology and the pedagogy of cultural studies.

′Hartley′s book is refreshing, breathtaking, and quite a lot of funGiven its relatively small size, the book can′t do everything, but it does introduce the reader to this rich area of contemporary academic life′ - Communication Research Trends

′Cultural studies will never be the same again. Whether you′re new to the field or a tired old jade, John Hartley′s latest will have you sitting bolt upright in your seat. Each chapter is brimming with insight and innovation. A landmark book.′ Toby Miller Professor of Cultural Studies and Cultural Policy, New York University

′An entertaining and innovative approach to the history of cultural studies′ - TOPIA: Canadian Journal of Cultural Studies
