Paperback. Condition: Good. Mass Culture and Everyday Life is a compelling collection of lively work from the small but seminal journal Tabloid. This volume offers a crucial clarification of the study of mass culture as it profoundly transforms daily life, providing a detailed and insightful survey of a wide range of mass culture phenomena that have defined our everyday experiences in recent years. Topics covered span from Hillary's hairdo to tampons, exercise fads, and fashion trends; from soaps to opera to rhythm and blues; from horror movies to the intricate interrelation of cats, pigs, and mothers in the film "Babe." This collection includes ground-breaking essays on significant cultural shifts, such as the boom of talk radio and talk TV, the phenomenon of shopping as cinematic spectacle, and how "everyday life" within the university community has become a key battleground in America's ongoing "culture wars." The direct, accessible, and refreshingly personal nature of the work speaks not only to an academic audience but also to a wide general readership interested in the critical analysis of contemporary culture. This paperback edition is offered in good condition.…

Cambridge Studies in American Literature and Culture. First edition. xii+398 pages with index. Cloth. Fine in dustjacket. Still in publishers shrink-wrap. Peter Gibian explores the key role played by Oliver Wendell Holmes in what was known as America's Age of Conversation. He was both a model and an analyst of the dynamic conversational form which became central to many areas of mid-nineteenth-century life. Holmes' multivoiced writings can serve as a key to open up the closed interiors of Victorian America, whether in saloons or salons, parlours or clubs, hotels or boarding-houses, schoolrooms or doctors offices. Combining social, intellectual, medical, legal and literary history with close textual analysis, and setting Holmes in dialogue with Emerson, Hawthorne, Melville, Fuller, Alcott and finally with his son, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Junior, Gibian radically redefines the context for our understanding of the major literary works of the American Renaissance.…
