Welcome to CU200: Popular Culture blog. Each week you will be asked to write a 150 word review of each session. The first session is entitled An Introduction to British Culture Studies. I have asked two students to review this session for next week.
The blog has two functions: as a revision tool and as an interactive forum for discussion between you and your fellow students.
The core texts for this module are John Storey's Cultural Studies and the Study of Popular Culture, Dominic Sandbrook's two studies of the 1960s: Never Had it So Good (2005) and White Heat (2006), and you have to read Ian Fleming's first James Bond novel Casino Royale (1953).
You also need to view Richard Lester's A Hard Day's Night (1964) and Gurinder Chadha's Bend it Like Beckham (2004).
Happy blogging,
Dr Richard Mills
