In High Theory/Low Culture , Brottman uses the tools of high cultural theory to examine many areas of todays popular culture, including style magazines, sport, shopping, tabloid newspapers, horror movies and pornography. In doing so, she not only demonstrates the practical use of high theory as it relates to our everyday world, but she also investigates the kinds of low culture that are regularly dismissed by academic scholars. Through a close examination of these cultural forms, Brottman reveals how the kinds of popular culture that we usually take for granted are, in fact, far more complex and sophisticated than is normally assumed.
