SUMMARY

Has political propaganda ever been effective? To what extent do African-American families interpret their favourite television show differently from their white neighbours? Are romance novels and teenage magazines reactionary fantasies, or can they provide women with an important space of their own? The Audience Studies Reader brings together key writings exploring questions of reception, interpretation and interactivity, reprinting forgotten pieces and combining key essays with new research. Beginning with a general introduction to the Reader, each extract is placed in its historical context with specially written section prefaces and annotated suggestions for further reading. Organised thematically and chronologically, sections address: The paradigm shift from effects to uses and gratifications Moral panic and censorship The active audience and reading as resistance Shifts in screen theory- the spectator and the audience The fan and the audience Gendering the audience Nationality and ethnicity The internet, information overflow and increased levels of interactivity The Audience Studies Reader provides a guide to thinking about the audience and suggests new ways of looking at the relationship between media texts and those who receive consume and interpret them.
