Description

This volume explores the intersection between theories of the modern spectacle--from Jose Antonio Maravall's conceptualisation of the spectacular culture of the baroque to the Frankfurt School's theorisation of mass culture, to Baudrillard's notion of the simulacrum, to Guy Debord's understanding of the society of the spectacle--and the findings of the emerging fields of urban studies, landscape studies, and, generally speaking, studies of space.
