商品描述

This book offers a historical, cultural, political and socio-economic analysis of the British media. It examines how facts and events are reported and interpreted, but also how ideas and opinions circulate and are recycled, with attention being paid to British traits and tropes in these domains. This in-depth study of "issues" and "singularity" aims at understanding how the British media have helped shape the country's culture and representations, thereby providing its people with a sense of togetherness.

Volume 1 focuses on the press, the internet and cinema as mass media, from the prolific and innovative Victorian era - the matrix of the modern world - to the turn of the 21st century with the challenge of digitalisation. Newspapers, magazines, films and music are studied as vehicles for fostering shared collective identities ("imagined communities") and for projecting a certain image of Britain at home and abroad ("soft power").

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書提供了對英國媒體的歷史、文化、政治和社會經濟分析。它探討了事實和事件如何被報導和解釋,以及觀點和意見如何流通和循環,同時關注這些領域中的英國特點和隱喻。這個深入研究關注著「議題」和「獨特性」,旨在理解英國媒體如何幫助塑造該國的文化和形象,從而為人們提供一種凝聚力。

第一卷聚焦於報紙、互聯網和電影作為大眾媒體,從多產且創新的維多利亞時代 - 現代世界的基石 - 到21世紀初的數字化挑戰。報紙、雜誌、電影和音樂被研究作為促進共同集體身份(「想像的社群」)和在國內外展示英國形象(「軟實力」)的工具。
