‘Subculture’ as a theoretical problem in Cultural Studies
Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 1,3, University of Rostock (Anglistik/Amerikanistik), course: HS: Popular Culture: Theory and Practice from c.1850 to c.1950, language: English, abstract: Youth subcultures have always attracted a lot of attention, both from the media and from academics. It is not surprising because members of youth subcultures tend to be highly visible and often are responsible for moral panics. Secondly, youth cultures have been considered to be “the product or epitome of social change, or a barometer of future changes”. That is why, in the twentieth century, in the time of so...
Veränderung der literarischen Kommunikation in den Umbruchssituationen von 1800 und 1900 unter Betrachtung von Kittlers Aufschreibesystemen
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Medien / Kommunikation - Mediengeschichte, Note: 1,7, Universität Rostock (Institut für sprachliche Kommunikation), Veranstaltung: S. Kulturgeschichte der schriftlichen Kommunikation, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In dieser Arbeit wird untersucht, wie sich die literarische Kommunikation unter dem Einfluss von Medien verändert hat. Die besonderen Schwerpunkte sind vor allem Kittlers Aufschreibesysteme und deren Wirkung auf die Literatur 1800-1900. Als Beispiel für Aufschreibesystem 1800 wird das Werk „Die Leiden des jungen Werthers“ von Johann Wolfgang Goethe angeführt, was vor allem die Bedeutung der schriftlichen Kommunikation und die des Individuums in Literatur 1800 zeigen soll. Für Aufschreibesystem 1900, wo der Literatur unter dem Einfluss von neuen Medien Grammophon und Film bloß ein enger Bereich des Symbolischen bleibt, wird das Gedicht „Ein Wort“ von Gottfried Benn interpretiert, was die Unterschiede zwischen zwei Aufschreibesystemen demonstrieren soll.
Subculture
First Published in 2002. It is easy to see that we are living in a time of rapid and radical social change. It is much less easy to grasp the fact that such change will inevitably affect the nature of those disciplines that both reflect our society and help to shape it. Yet this is nowhere more apparent than in the central field of what may, in general terms, be called literary studies. ‘New Accents’ is intended as a positive response to the initiative offered by such a situation. Each volume in the series will seek to encourage rather than resist the process of change. To stretch rather than reinforce the boundaries that currently define literature and its academic study.
Resistance Through Rituals
First published in 1989. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.

Six Lithuanian Poets
The poets whose work is included in this anthology were born in the 1960s, when Lithuania was part of the Soviet Union, and mostly started publishing after the country achieved independence in 1991. Unlike their predecessors, the poets of this generation are not concerned with political themes but rather with issues of aesthetics and existential quests. While each follows his or her unique path, they all share a penchant for experimentation and an ironic, post-modern perspective, following European literary trends rather than domestic poetic traditions.
Different Notions of 'Culture'
Essay from the year 2012 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 1,0, University of Tubingen, language: English, abstract: For all this apparent ubiquity, the term ‘cultural studies’ remains an unusually ‘polysemic’ sign. The academic field of ‘Cultural Studies’ has experienced a major worldwide growth in the last 25 years of the 20th century. Everyone uses and discusses the abstract noun ‘culture’, but its exact meaning varies to such an extent, that it seems necessary to examine the different notions of culture: As a matter of fact, ‘culture’ is one of the most complex words of the English language; only ‘nature’ denotes more meanings. One can say that there is hardly anything that is not culture.
Hadrian and the Christians
The book sheds new light on a much debated issue in the field of ancient history: the spread of Christianity in the Roman Empire and its relationship with Judaism in the 2nd century. The contributions collected in this volume illustrate from a multidisciplinary perspective (including archaeology, cultural, religious, and political history) how Christianity found a peculiar way of integrating into the transforming empire under Emperor Hadrian. In this way, Christianity gained an increasing place within Roman society, which ultimately opened the door to its affirmation in subsequent centuries.
Influences of Asian Cultural Identity on Global Marketing Strategies
Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Cultural Studies - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, University of Greenwich, language: English, abstract: This paper discusses the influence of Asian cultural identity on Global Marketing. Over the course of the past decades globalisation has had a great impact on the every day lives of people around the globe. Due to the advances in technology and new inventions, such as the internet and therefore the diminishing of boundaries, people from various countries of the world are now more than ever able to be connected to each other, travel and overcome far distances, as well as purchase and consume products and services from all over the world. The benef...
