{"product_id":"pop-culture-matters-martin-f-norden-9781527526938","title":"Pop Culture Matters: Proceedings of the 39th Conference of the Northeast Popular Culture Association","description":"We immerse ourselves daily in expressions of popular cultureâ \"YouTube videos, hip hop music, movies, adverts, greeting cards, videogames, and comics, to name just a few possibilitiesâ \"and far too often we pay only scant critical attention to them. The essays in this collection redress this situation by probing a wide range of topics within the field of popular culture studies. Written in engaging and jargon-free prose, contributions critically examine various offerings in film, television, social media, music, literature, sports, and related areas. Moreover, they often pay special attention to the ways in which these pop culture artefacts intersect with issues of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age, and ability. Providing a rich mixture of broad perspectives and intriguing case studies, the essays form a compelling mosaic of findings and viewpoints on popular culture. Exploring everything from toxic masculinity in twenty-first century television programmes to gendered greeting cards and adult colouring books, this provocative volume is essential reading for anyone interested in that fabricated and all-pervasive environment we call popular culture.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martin F.
