Hollywood Shot by Shot: Alcoholism in American Cinema
ISBN: 9780202303444 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 309 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) To what extent have Hollywood feature films shaped the meanings that Americans attach to alcoholics, their families, and the alcoholic condition? To what extent has the mass culture of the movie industry itself been conceptually shaped by a broad, external societal discourse? Norman Denzin brings to his life-long study of alcoholism a searching interest in how cultural texts signify and lend themselves to interpretation within a social nexus.

Heightened Performative Autoethnography: Resisting Oppressive Spaces Within Paradigms
ISBN: 9781433132933 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 239 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book argues for - and carries out - what the author terms Heightened Performative Autoethnography (HPA). The common theme throughout the volume involves resisting oppressive and hegemonic spaces within paradigms, and hence seeking epistemological liberation. The text methodologically and conceptually situates this newly proposed variant of autoethnography, while contextualizing and justifying its performed or enacted theme involving resistance against the oppressiveness of paradigms. The book concludes with an analysis and commentary, demonstrating how this particular theme, and HPA as a...

Searching for Yellowstone: Race, Gender, Family and Memory in the Postmodern West
ISBN: 9781598743203 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 255 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Yellowstone. Sacagawea. Lewis & Clark. Transcontinental railroad. Indians as college mascots. All are iconic figures, symbols of the West in the Anglo-American imagination. Well-known cultural critic Norman Denzin interrogates each of these icons for their cultural meaning in this finely woven work. Part autoethnography, part historical narrative, part art criticism, part cultural theory, Denzin creates a postmodern bricolage of images, staged dramas, quotations, reminiscences and stories that strike to the essence of the American dream and the shattered dreams of the peoples it subjugated.

Anti-Intellectualism in American Media: Magazines & Higher Education
ISBN: 9780820457215 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In this book, Dane S. Claussen argues that the news media have fed vocationalism and self-doubt in higher education, and anti-intellectualism throughout American culture. Analyzing articles in popular national magazines since the G.I. Bill of 1944, Claussen finds that media have overwhelmingly portrayed college as a time and place for students to play sports, date and marry, drink and take drugs, protest, join fraternities and sororities, go on vacations, avoid the draft, escape their parents, and, perhaps most of all, network and find jobs in short, do almost anything except research, study,...

Scholars of medieval romance themselves often encounter a thicket of theoretical or philological thorns to wade through, but as all lovers of a good romance know, the protagonist is always rewarded for his or her kindness, wit, hard work, and perseverance." from Romance and Love in Late Medieval and Early...
