The Arts in the 1970s : Cultural Closure, Hardback Book

The Arts in the 1970s : Cultural Closure Hardback

Hardback

Description

Were the 1970s really `the devils decade'? Images of strikes, galloping inflation, rising unemployment and bitter social divisions evoke a period of unparalleled economic decline, political confrontation and social fragmentation.

But how significant were the pessimism and self-doubt of the 1970s, and what was the legacy of its cultural conflicts?

Covering the entire spectrum of the arts - drama, television, film, poetry, the novel, popular music, dance, cinema and the visual arts - The Arts in the 1970s challenges received perceptions of the decade as one of cultural decline.

The collection breaks new ground in providing the first detailed analysis of the cultural production of the decade as a whole, providing an invaluable resource for all those involved in cultural, media and communications studies.
