Phenomenological
Approaches to Popular Culture
Edited by Michael T. Carroll and
Eddie Tafoya
Popular Press
Within popular culture studies, one
finds discussions about quantitative sociology, Marxism, psychoanalysis,
myth criticism, feminism, and semiotics, but hardly a word on
the usefulness of phenomenology, the branch of philosophy concerned
with human experience. In spite of this omission, there is a
close relationship between the aims of phenomenology and the
aims of popular culture studies, for both movements have attempted
to redirect academic study toward everyday lived experience.
The fifteen essays in this volume demonstrate the way in which
phenomenological approaches can illuminate popular culture studies,
and in so doing they take on the entire range of popular culture.
