Social tragedy : the power of myth, ritual, and emotion in the new media ecology
Baker, Stephanie Alice - Personal Name
Catatan
Baker demonstrates that Aristotle’s theory of tragedy as collective morality remains critical to core processes in contemporary society, as relevant today as ever before. Employing tools from
the new cultural sociology, Baker also updates the classical theory. Rather than being rooted in static texts, modern social tragedies are contingently constructed. Facing shocking events, social actors create morally inspired readings, interpreting them as social performances enacted by suffering but virtuous characters who ill-deserved their fates. From the cultural construction
of social tragedy, urgent demands for truth and justice arise.
