Profiles of Popular Culture by Ray Browne
From Hank Williams to hip hop, Aunt Jemima to the Energizer Bunny, scrapbooking to NASCAR racing, this volume invites readers to reflect on a sampling of modern myths, icons, archetypes, and rituals. Ray B. Browne has mined both scholarly and mainstream media to bring together essays that critical doors into the study of popular culture.
I have no doubt that this edited collection will become the standard text in the field of popular culture studies- Gary Hoppenstand, Michigan State University
