Seller's Description:
As New in As New jacket. Size: 8vo-over 7? "-9? " tall; Type: Hard Back First American Printing. Translated by Charles Lambert; Foreword by Umberto Eco. Hardcover Book and Jacket AS NEW. Mylar jacket cover. Original hardcover binding of red cloth, bright, clean and unmarked, no wear to extremities; tight & solid. Internals quite spotless, no creases. A young Italian semiologist scrutinizes today's cultural phenomena and finds the prevailing taste to be "Neo-Baroque--characterized by an appetite for virtuosity, frantic rhythme, instability, polydimensionality, and change". He takes the reader through a fast-paced expedition through contemporary culture. Calabrese contends that due to our mass media saturated society, even the way in which students read Plato (if they ever do) is determined by the existence of "Dallas", even for those who never watch it. In the Foreword, Umberto Eco states that Calabrese is conscious of living in a culture in which [mass media] not only exist, but also determine our way of thinking--. This is a very interesting, thoughtful book. 227 pages. 9.5 x 6.5 inches. Princeton University Press, Princeton, New Jersey, 1992.
