| 书目名称 | The Lonely Nineties | | 副标题 | Visions of Community | | 编辑 | Paul Arras | | 视频video | | | 概述 | Puts into cultural context some of the most popular and significant US television shows of the nineties, including Seinfeld, NYPD Blue, Law & Order, The X-Files, Touched by an Angel, and The Simpsons. | | 图书封面 |  | | 描述 | .This book examines the most popular American television shows of the nineties—a decade at the last gasp of network television’s cultural dominance. At a time when American culture seemed increasingly fragmented, television still offered something close to a site of national consensus. .The Lonely Nineties. focuses on a different set of popular nineties television shows in each chapter and provides an in-depth reading of scenes, characters or episodes that articulate the overarching “ideology” of each series. It ultimately argues that television shows such as .Seinfeld., .Friends., .Law & Order. and .The Simpsons. helped to shape the ways Americans thought about themselves in relation to their friends, families, localities, and nation. It demonstrates how these shows engaged with a variety of problems in American civic life, responded to the social isolation of the age, and occasionally imagined improvements for community in America. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | | 关键词 | Television; American; Nineties; Culture; community; primetime; sitcom; social | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-93094-7 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-06586-7 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-93094-7 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2018 |
