His books have stimulated research on news framing, mass media and social media, inviting new insights about how communication, self, audiences and public life are mediated by, but also transcend, particular technological forms. What explains the continuing relevance of this highly original theorist?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn this book, Peter Lunt critically examines how and why the concepts developed by Goffman - face-work and the mediated self, frontstage and backstage, impression management, media frames and logics, footing and interaction rituals - still resonate across the field. Ultimately, Goffman's sociology emerges not only as an enduring influence, but as a source of new inspiration in our ever more interactive world.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOriginal and incisive, \u003ci\u003eGoffman and the Media\u003c\/i\u003e is crucial reading for students and scholars encountering this fascinating thinker from a media studies perspective.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lunt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0745688896\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780745688893\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/18\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Peter Lunt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46571192058111,"sku":"9780745688893","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d19e0f99-53e7-4afd-807f-e003ffe91f48.jpg?v=1738807509","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/goffman-and-the-media-peter-lunt-9780745688893","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
