詹姆逊论大众文化

On Mass Culture by Jameson

詹姆逊认为,大众文化不同于通俗文化;大众文化作为意识形态不仅具有压迫性质,还具有鸟托邦性质;大众文化主要手法是拚凑,拼凑使其具有了娱乐性;进入后现代社会,大众文化与精英文化一起溶为后现代文化。

Jameson thinks that mass culture is different from popular culture. As an ideology, mass culture possesses both oppressiveness and utopianism. The major device of mass culture is to piece together, which adds amusement. In post modernism society, mass culture and elite culture dissolve into post modern culture.
