Critical analysis of popular TV culture

Tele-ology: Studies in Television is a must-read for those interested in the complex cultural politics of television broadcasting in Britain, Australia, and the USA. John Hartley's exploration is thought-provoking and wide-ranging, analyzing popular TV shows like Neighbours, Dallas, and Beverly Hillbillies. Additionally, his analysis delves into TV truth and propaganda, mythologies of the audience, and even Madonna and gardening shows. Hartley's photopoetic approach to TV drama will change your understanding of the genre forever.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Teleology brings together John Hartley's work on television. The book draws on current critical theory in cultural studies to develop a wide-ranging and thought-provoking view of television broadcasting in Britain, Australia and the USA.Neighbours, Hancock's Half Hour, Dallas, Monty Python, Miami Vice, Beverly Hillbillies and Bonanza are among the examples of TV art that are discussed in Hartley's exploration of cultural politics. He takes in TV truth and propaganda; populism in the news; mythologies of the audience; TV drama as a `photopoetic' genre in the tradition of Shakespeare; Kylie Minogue, Madonna and gardening shows.
