Theoretical and Historical Approaches

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Living images have been the object of devotion as well as targets of destruction, and they have been marginalised in both culture and cultural studies for their ambivalence and transgressive nature. This volume aims to recuperate the living image, to draw it from the margins, and re-illuminate its importance for cultural history.
