Across the diverse tapestry of its episodes, \u003ci\u003eBlack Mirror\u003c\/i\u003e has both dramatized and deconstructed the shifting cultural and technological coordinates of the era like no other. With each of the nineteen chapters focussing on a single episode of the series, this book provides an in-depth analysis into how the show interrogates our contemporary desires and anxieties, while simultaneously encouraging audiences to contemplate the moral issues raised by each episode. What if we could record and replay our most intimate memories? How far should we go to protect our children? Would we choose to live forever? What does it mean to be human? These are just some of the questions posed by \u003ci\u003eBlack Mirror\u003c\/i\u003e, and in turn, by this volume. Written by some of the foremost scholars in the field of contemporary film and television studies,\u003ci\u003eThrough the Black Mirror\u003c\/i\u003e explores how \u003ci\u003eBlack Mirror\u003c\/i\u003e has become a cultural barometer of the new millennial decades and questions what its embedded anxieties might tell us. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2019-08-06\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030194574\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-19458-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 297\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45441124270220,"sku":"9783030194574","price":125.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030194574_ec74124f-8191-4a7a-bd0e-a6823c73f8c7.jpg?v=1772942015","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030194574","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
