Stuart Hall - Representation & the Media


In this accessible introductory lecture, Hall focuses on the concept of "representation"-- one of the key ideas of cultural studies-- and shows how reality is never experienced directly, but always through the symbolic categories made available by society.

Stuart Hall

Stuart Hall, a leading figure of the British left over the past thirty years and a visionary race theorist, had made profound contributions to the field of cultural studies at the Center for Contemporary Cultural Studies at Birmingham University. His work has made possible multiple conversations taking place around questions of culture, race and ethnicity.
