Beautiful Things in Popular Culture

Paperback

Alan McKee

From Batman to motor bikes, pop stars to internet pornography, "Beautiful Things in Popular Culture" examines the range of aesthetic criteria that goes into judging mass culture's most celebrated texts and objects. As the soldiers of the Culture Wars continue to argue whether it is better to study Shakespeare or television shows, this little book dispels the myth that consumers are unaware of quality, mindlessly consuming whatever is put in front of them. Smart and sassy, yet erudite, these twelve essays are authored by an internationally renowned group of cultural commentators, including John Banks, Marc Brennan, Will Brooker, Simon Frith, Claire Gould, John Hartley, Margaret Henderson, Henry Jenkins, Sara Gwenllian Jones, Alan McKee, Mark McLelland, Thomas McLaughlin, Glen Thomas, and Sue Turnbull. Together they probe the passion and excitement surrounding icons in popular culture.

While its ancestry is ancient, in the last two hundred years the bridge has become one of the prime monuments of modernity. Such prestige is partly due to the sculptural qualities of bridges, which are perfect for conspicuous displays of heroic engineering, and also partly due to their facilitation of movement: the bridge became an essential part of the revolution in mobility that was itself integral to modernity - the reliable and efficient circulation of goods, and the regulated and rapid mass movement of the population.
