Reseña del editor:
The study of German culture has often focused on literature, thought and the political landscape. This innovative book offers a fresh approach by focusing on different German cultural phenomena, such as language, nationhood, food and drink, film and material culture, and interpreting them using different cultural studies frameworks.
Rather than examining issues of ethnicity, gender, class, and other markers of identity in isolation, this collection shows readers how these key aspects of culture are present in everyday German cultural practices and forms.
Written by a team of leading international scholars, 'Contemporary German Cultural Studies' allows readers to engage critically in aspects of history, culture, memory and power at work within forms as diverse as new museums and the Doner Kebab.
An essential guide for all those who wish to explore the field of German cultural studies in new and challenging ways.
Reseña del editor:
As the study of German comes under the influence of other disciplinary approaches, the notion of culture has evolved from one focused largely on the arts to an approach which understands culture as the way of life of a people or a period. This introductory text examines contemporary German culture not only in the context of its intellectual life - the media, the arts, political figures and events - but also in the context of the theories and methodologies of cultural studies, anthropology and sociology. Providing a critical assessment of the diversity of German culture and identity, this title focuses on the contemporary period and at the same time considers the influence of the past and forces such as globalization. The emphasis is on the interpretation and analysis of the varieties of German cultures - the processes, the practices and the performances. The book also explores intercultural issues, including the implications of studying German culture from an anglophone perspective.
