商品描述
This book takes an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the different ways in which the past remains present in Western popular culture in the twenty-first century. It combines theoretical analyses with case study-based chapters focusing on examples from Britain, the US, and Germany, among other countries. In doing so, it pushes beyond a simplistic and monolithic conception of what 'nostalgia' is to allow for a more nuanced and varied conceptualisation of this phenomenon, and to also incorporate other ways of understanding the invoking or inclusion of different histories within cultural objects, formats, and practices.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書採取跨學科的方法來理解過去如何以不同方式在二十一世紀的西方流行文化中持續存在。它結合了理論分析與基於案例研究的章節，專注於來自英國、美國和德國等國家的例子。這樣做不僅超越了對「懷舊」的簡單和單一的概念，還允許對這一現象進行更細緻和多樣化的概念化，並納入其他理解文化物件、格式和實踐中不同歷史的方式。
