Star Decades Complete 11 Volume Set
The Star Decades: American Culture/American Cinema series is now available as an eleven volume set: Movie Stars from the 1910s to the 2010s. Each volume presents original essays that analyze the movie star against the background of American cultural history. As icon, as mediated personality, and as object of audience fascination and desire, the Hollywood star remains the model for celebrity in modern culture, representing a combination of achievement, talent, ability, luck, authenticity, superficiality, and even ordinariness.
