[ecrea] Journal of European Popular Culture new issue and EUPOP2012 conference

Tue Jul 10 22:37:29 GMT 2012




Intellect is delighted to announce the publication of issue 2.1 of /Journal of European Popular Culture/ (JEPC).

Journal of European Popular Culture 2.1

In this issue, which explores the question "what is it that makes the popular popular?", filmmaker Allyson Fiddler explores film's ability to serve as a focal point for resistance within a context of political turmoil, while Stephen Harper explores ways in which film can reflect popular bias, for example, in the pervasive western humanitarian interventionist narrative. Approaches to national identity are discussed in an exploration of fusions between German and African-American music, while through an examination of Nuri Bilge Ceylan's films, the implications of the economic position of Turkish cinema within Europe is discussed.

The /Journal of European Popular Culture/ is connected to the European Popular Culture Association (EPCA) who are hosting their inaugural conference (EUPOP2012) between the 11-13th July at the London College of Fashion, University of the Arts, London. The EPCA promotes the study of popular culture from, in, and about Europe. Popular culture involves a wide range of activities, outcomes and audiences; EPCA aims to examine and discuss these different activities as they relate both to Europe, and to Europeans across the globe, whether contemporary or historical.
