The Cultural Analysis of Texts
Review`This is a rich and sophisticated examination of the place of texts and textual analysis in the radically contextual project of cultural studies. Its rigor and originality make it a valuable addition to the field, and a useful teaching resource' - Larry Grossberg, University of North CarolinaDrawing upon a range of perspectives from textual and cultural studies, this book synthesizes textual, contextual and audience analysis into an overall picture of meaning making. Using examples ranging from Balzac to blonde jokes, modernist poetry to pop lyrics, the book discusses the factors that contribute to the fomation of meaning: language, media, texts, contexts and readers.In the cultural study of texts - texts, contexts and practices - are equally important, the author argues. Meaning making takes place in the articulation between these different elements. But how can one examine all three areas at the same time? In The Cultural Analysis of Texts, Mikko Lehtonen develops a model to enable just such an approach.
