Copertina di Richard Pine: Minor Mythologies as Popular Literature (PDF)

This is the first single-author study of the genres and roots of popular literature in its relation to film and television, exploring the effects of academic snobbery on the teaching of popular literature.Designed for classroom use by students of literature and film (and their teachers), it offers case studies in quest literature, detective fiction, the status of the outlaw and outsider, and the interdependence of self, other and the uncanny.It challenges perceived notions of, and prejudices against, popular literature, and affirms its connection with the deepest human experiences.
