Produktbeschreibung

This book explores contemporary media's reliance on nostalgia in video games, movies, streaming sites, and even social media in their attempt to attract audiences of all generations. The book is interdisciplinary in approach and looks at the implications of this mediated past-focus on our cultural identities and our perception of memory itself.
