| Everyday Life and Cultural Theory provides a unique critical and historical introduction to theories of everyday life. Ben Highmore traces the development of conceptions of everyday life, from the cultural sociology of Georg Simmel, through the Mass-Observation project of the 1930s to contemporary theorists such as Michel de Certeau. Individual chapters examine: * Modernity and everyday life * Georg Simmel and fragments of everyday life * Surrealism and the marvellous in the everyday * Walter Benjamin's trash aesthetics * Mass- Observation and the science of everyday life * Henri Lefebvre's dialectics of everyday life * Michel de Certeau's poetics of everyday life * Everyday life and the future of cultural studies. |
