I think this might have done a good job at what it was doing, I'm just not sure what that *was*. It for sure wasn't doing what I wanted it to. Engstrom and Valenzano's interests and areas of study seem to be along the lines of communication and media studies, and the book, I guess, (and I'm not being dismissive here, this is just really not my area) reflects that. To my mind, their study tells us more about the society the TV show Supernatural exists within and about how it intersects with religion within that society and for its audience. Which, okay, that's cool, it's just not what I wanted from it. I wanted criticism that would tell me more about the text of Supernatural, and that would explore how the text uses religion, and how the ways it uses religion informs the text. I also found the writing pretty dry, but that may have been at least partly a function of my frustration that I wasn't getting what I wanted from the book. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
