Synopsis
Fishwick (interdisciplinary studies, American studies, and popular culture studies, Virginia Tech) offers observations on popular culture in view of the changes brought about by the information revolution and the digital divide. Coverage hops about to address issues such as the millennium; distinctions between folk, fake, and pop; sacred symbols; the cult of celebrity; war; postmodern pop; and the concept of the global village, among other topics. Includes a couple of contributions by graduate students with similar snappy, stream-of-consciousness approaches.
