Poetics of Politics (gebundenes Buch)
Sidestepping such a logic of periodization, this book points to the interplay between the textual and the political as a dynamic - always locally specific - that affords unique insights into the characteristics of the contemporary moment. The sixteen case studies in this book explore this interplay across a wide range of media, genres, and modes. Together, they make visible a broad cultural concern with negotiating social relevance and textual self-awareness that permeates and structures contemporary US (popular) culture.
