By the early nineteenth century murder had become the staple of the sensationalizing popular press, and gruesome descriptions were deployed to make a direct impact on the 'sensations' of the reader. Later, concern with the thrills, spills, and shocks of modern life was being articulated in the language of sensation, and media sensationalism was already being seen both as contributing to this process and as magnifying its impact, just as sensation was, in turn, taken up by literature, art and film. Finally, it seems as though the dramatization of these experiences in an era of media panics over terrorism, paedophilia, etc., has taken an overtly melodramatic form, in which battles of good and evil play out across the landscapes of our lives. Sensational Subjects develops an innovative, interdisciplinary approach to exploring these themes, their impact and their implications for understanding the modern world."--|cProvided by Publisher. 546 English. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (Ebsco, viewed March 12, 2015). 590 Bloomsbury Publishing|bBloomsbury Open Access 650 0 Postmodernism|xPsychological aspects. 650 0 Experience. 650 0 Culture|xPsychological aspects. 650 0 Mass media and culture|xPsychological aspects. 650 0 Spectacular, The|xPsychological aspects. 650 7 PHILOSOPHY|xHistory & Surveys|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 PHILOSOPHY|xMovements|xDeconstruction.|2bisacsh 650 7 Literary studies: from c 1900.|2bicssc 650 7 Philosophy: aesthetics.|2bicssc 650 7 Film theory & criticism.|2bicssc 650 7 Cultural studies.|2bicssc 650 7 Political science & theory.|2bicssc 650 7 Culture|xPsychological aspects.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00885079 650 7 Experience.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00918379 650 7 Postmodernism|xPsychological aspects.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01073171 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 |iPrint version:|aJervis, John.|tSensational subjects : the dramatization of experience in the modern world. |dLondon, [England] ; New York, New York : Bloomsbury Academic, ©2015|hxi, 230 pages|kWISH list.|z9781472535597 830 0 WISH list. 914 ocn898213775 994 92|bSTJ
