In recent decades many theories have emerged and developed about culture and cultural practices, and the meanings and significance of these. This unit introduces the student to the interesting and complex debates that have been generated by such theories, with application to a range of cultural texts and practices. Discussion may focus on the work of a particular theorist, for example, that of Michel Foucault, or may explore a group of theories and theorists, for example, post-structuralism, paying attention not only to primary texts, but also the commentaries on and debates around those texts. |
