Omschrijving

French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu's work has been extremely influential, but has only intermittently been used to study cinema and new media. With topics ranging from photography to mobile technology, this collection demonstrates the enormous relevance that Bourdieu holds for the field of media studies.

“This is a really useful contribution to our understanding of the various ways in which the work of Bourdieu can be used in film and media studies, adding to and revising existing uses but also bringing his key ideas to bear on new areas such as online film reviewing and the landscapes of social and mobile media. These chapters are strong and well argued.” · Geoff King, Brunel University

“This timely collection approaches a rich palette of media through Bourdieuian perspectives. Perhaps its most important contribution lies in the seemingly natural way in which IMDb reviews, millennial hipsterdom, Algerian cinema, and other diverse forms are brought together.” · Marijke de Valck, Utrecht University
