Traditions and Taboos in High Literature and Popular Modern Genres
Publisher: University of Toronto Press 1990, first edition. ISBN: 0802068138. Ex-library in good used condition, light wear to edges/corners, soiling to outer edge of pages, usual stamps/stickers, laminated cover, light watermarking on inside of covers, first couple pages are slightly wrinkled but no other damage. Interior otherwise clean & tight. b/w illus. 9" tall, 219 pages.
A witty and accessible argument for the enduring necessity of Shakespeare, Milton, and many of the other "greats"--not just because English teachers SAY they are great, but because popular culture from "Star Trek" to "Jurassic Park" keeps them alive andwell. If you set yourself free from the tyranny of chronology, Hawkins argues famously, "King Kong" can influence your reading of "King Lear" just as much as the other way around. Hawkins was cultural studies before cultural studies was cool, and her work is ripe for a reassessment.
