David Bowie: Critical Perspectives - Routledge Studies in Popular Music 1st edition
Eoin Devereux
David Bowie: Critical Perspectives examines in detail the many layers of one of the most intriguing and influential icons in popular culture. This interdisciplinary book brings together established and emerging scholars from a wide variety of backgrounds, including musicology, sociology, art history, literary theory, philosophy, politics, film studies and media studies. Bowie?s complexity as a singer, songwriter, producer, performer, actor and artist demands that any critical engagement with his overall work must be interdisciplinary and wide-ranging in its scope. The chapters are organised around the key themes of ?textualities?, ?psychologies?, ?orientalisms?, ?art and agency? and ?performing and influencing? in Bowie?s work. This comprehensive book contributes a great deal to the study of popular music, performance, gender, religion, popular media and celebrity.
