| Description | This book explores the tentacular reach of the Oprah enterprise to unveil the role culture plays in making sense of our lives and in binding us to a realm of values. By immersing the reader in all things Oprah -using examples from her television show, her book club, her magazine and her website -Illouz shows us how traditional models of cultural analysis fail to fully explain the power of such a unique, complex and boundary-less phenomenon. Instead, Illouz walks the high wire between 'understanding' and 'critiquing' -an approach she calls 'ethical criticism.' |
