Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

In this class, we are going to investigate into cultural processes and products that engender a sense of British identity/-ies. Our sources will be all kinds of media discourses, such as film and TV, popular music or politics. We will be looking at nationalism in the UK, at multicultural versus racist notions of Britishness, and at signs and significations of Britishness (or is it Englishness?) such as St George's Day and the Union Jack.
