In many ways images have replaced words as the defining aspect of cultural identity, while at the same time they have become part of our global culture. The rapidly developing discipline of visual cultural studies has become the key area for examining the issues of the image. \u003cem\u003eVisual Cultures and Critical Theory\u003c\/em\u003e provides students with a clear guide for understanding ideas of critical theory through the visual. Taking up a range of themes such as spectatorship, pleasure, power, doubles, hallucination, and the frame, the book explains them within the context of the theoretical developments in psychoanalysis, cultural theory, postmodernism, Queer theory, gender studies, and narrative theory.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45088211501207,"sku":"9780340807477","price":12681.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780340807477.webp?v=1767267270","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/visual-cultures-and-critical-theory-9780340807477","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
