Description

Explore the connection between symbol systems and cultural study in Cultural Ways of Worldmaking: Media and Narratives. This volume uses Nelson Goodman's theory from his book "Ways of Worldmaking" as a starting point to examine how different media and narratives shape the worlds we experience. Readers will learn how specific storytelling methods and media platforms influence the creation of social realities. The text explains how these constructed worlds become socially relevant and how they are shaped by cultural values. By looking at these processes, the book examines how worldmaking is connected to power relations within society. This work is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of media, narrative, and cultural theory.
