Are you following a course in Cultural Studies at college or university? Perhaps
you are taking it as an independent subject, or as part of a syllabus in Art
History, Literary Studies or Sociology. If so, this is the book for you. It
discusses such central theoretical trends as culturalism, structuralism, postmodernism
and cultural populism. It is unique among introductory texts in the way it combines
key themes, leading writers and summaries and handy revision material, it meets
the need for a concise introduction to Cultural Studies as it has taken shape
in Britain. It will be invaluable for students writing essays or preparing for
seminars or presentations. Philip Bounds is a lecturer in Cultural, Media and
Film Studies.
