課程概述 |
Course Description
This course takes discourses on popular culture as its point of departure to discuss the cultural meaning and reverberation of popular culture today. As a dominant cultural phenomenon and force, popular culture has infiltrated into our everyday life and helped shape our identity and worldview. Within the critical tradition on popular culture, there has been a heated debate with regard to the pros and cons of popular culture in terms of cultural politics: to what extent is popular culture reinforcing the dominant stereotypes of gender, sexuality, race, and class? And to what extent can popular culture subvert or even intervene dominant cultural hegemony? This course aims to provide students with an opportunity to look into how popular culture is constructed and appropriated in tandem with its potential to disrupt practices of dominant cultural hegemony. Key texts on popular culture will be read closely, and students will be encouraged to investigate practices of contemporary popular culture that are of interest to them.
