CELEBRITY CULTURES is a wonderfully rich and very well researched examination of the field. It offers a
detailed discussion of the origins and histories of celebrity, drawing on a wide range of academic reference
points and popular illustrations. The writing is lucid, energetic, and the book is very well organised around a
set of key themes and critical issues. Celebrity Cultures will quickly become a key text in the study of celebrity.
SEAN REDMOND, ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR IN MEDIA AND COMMUNICATION, DEAKIN UNIVERSITY

CULTURES takes readers beyond the spotlights and into the complex debates surrounding celebrity
and its impact on how we understand media, society and ourselves. From the publicity campaigns of
Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar to the election of Arnold Schwarzenegger as Governor of California,
this book critically examines how celebrity impacts on social, economic and politic processes and what this
tells us about contemporary global society. Using social theory to explain key issues such as gender, sexuality,
ethnicity, economics, politics and the media, the book gives a comprehensive understanding of how celebrity
is woven into our culture.
This book book:
•
Teaches readers to critically interpret and examine the celebrity with the concepts and theories
of social science.
•
Explains the international appeal of celebrity with case studies from India, China, South Korea
and Indonesia.
•
Explores the research with guided further reading suggestions.
CELEBRITY CULTURES is the one-stop text for students of celebrity in media and cultural studies and sociology.
