| Content | This course addresses the tendencies for British culture and identity to circulate around class. We will consider mainly renderings of class and its analysis from mid twentieth-century up to the present day. This will mean we examine from early cultural theorists such as Richard Hoggart and Raymond Williams, expanding on Stuart Hall and Dick Hebdige, through to Annette Kuhn, Angle McRobbie and Irit Rogoff: considering key figures in the British cultural studies canon. We will also address case studies of class, class positioning, and practices and artefacts that specifically address class or are its products. Including material from personal diaries, photography, film, TV, fashion, music and sport as well as economic and political positions. |
| Learning objectives | Students will learn about the key figures in 20th- and 21st-century British cultural studies, and will acquire tools for analysis through readings, case studies and application in group and plenary work. |
