Uncommon Cultures engages with some of the most hotly contested issues of contemporary cultural analysis. Collins clearly explains how the popular and the postmodern are interconnected, and in the process constructs a set of critical paradigms for cultural analysis. Through examining a wide range of cultural forms - including the detective novel, women's films, comic books, performance art and architecture - Collins re-evaluates many current assumptions concerning textual production, subject construction, intertextuality, enunciation theory, and the history of narrative.
