Beskrivning
Music in Youth Culture examines the fantasies of post-Oedipal youth cultures as displayed on the landscape of popular music from a post-Lacanian perspective. Jan Jagodzinski, an expert on Lacan, psychoanalysis, and education's relationship to media, maintains that a new set of signifiers is required to grasp the sliding signification of contemporary 'youth'. He discusses topics such as the figurality of noise, the perversions of the music scene by boyz/bois/boys and the hysterization of it by gurlz/girls/grrrls. Music in Youth Culture also examines the postmodern 'fan (addict)', techno music, and pop music icons. Jagodzinski raises the Lacanian question of 'an ethics of the Real' and asks educators to re-examine 'youth' culture.

Recensioner i media

"It is hard to think of a cultural phenomenon that is more emotionally compelling and socially significant, or less understood, than youth music and its attendant subcultures. It has long been a truism that rebellion is central to this music, but the deep and complex nature, the social and psychological roots, and the ethical, social, and political consequences of the transgressions this music embodies have remained obscure. Now comes jan jagodzinski's remarkable Musical Fantasies of Youth Culture, revealing heretofore unrecognized forms, dimensions, levels, and folds of the significance this transgression has for subjectivity, sociality, politics, and ethics. For anyone who has been intrigued or baffled by the mesmerizing and transformative power of youth music, this book offers profound and dazzling insights. With this, the second volume of his analysis of youth cultures, jagodzinski establishes himself as a cultural theorist and critic of the first order."-Mark Bracher, founding editor, Psychoanalysis, Culture and Society.
