Description
Were the 1970s really "the devil's decade"? Images of strikes, galloping inflation, rising unemployment and bitter social divisions evoke a period of unparalleled economic decline, political confrontation and social fragmentation. But how significant were the pessimism and self-doubt of the 1970s, and what was the legacy of its cultural conflicts? Covering the spectrum of the arts - drama, television, film, poetry, the novel, popular music, dance, cinema and the visual arts - "The Arts in the 1970s" challenges received perceptions of the decade as one of cultural decline. The collection breaks new ground in providing detailed analysis of the cultural production of the decade as a whole, providing a resource for all those involved in cultural, media and communications studies.
