Crime in Film/Media/Popular Culture Tweet Chat


Recommended Posts

On Thursday 7th August at 4.30pm BST Intellect academic publishers will be holding a Tweet chat on the topic of Crime in Film/Media/Popular Culture. Due to your interests in Criminology and Criminal Justice I thought you may wish to be involved in this discussion. The topic is flexible to being taken in the appropriate direction to examine your interests in crime and the way it is represented.

 

Some academics currently involved are:-

 

  1. Louis Bayman

 

Louis Bayman completed his doctoral thesis on post-war Italian melodrama at King’s College, London, and is currently researching theoretical approaches to the social and aesthetic characteristics of popular cinema.


2. Carl Freedman

 

A contributor to Film International since 2005, Carl Freedman is the James F. Cassidy Professor of English at Louisiana State University (Baton Rouge). He is the author of many books and articles, including, most recently, The Age of Nixon: A Study in Cultural Power (Zero Books, 2012).


3. Dr. Chris J. Richardson

 

Chris Richardson is a doctoral student in Media Studies at The University of Western Ontario. He received a Bachelor of Journalism from Ryerson University in 2007 and a Master of Arts in Popular Culture from Brock University in 2008. His work primarily focuses on intersections of popular culture, journalism and the construction of space/place. He has written on Bloc Party, Bret Easton Ellis and Kanye West, and is currently co-editing a collection on habitus and representations of ‘the hood’ with Hans A. Skott-Myhre of Brock University.
