Kritik
" - the collection offers a refreshing addition to celebrity studies scholarship for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is its European frame of reference. By focusing on Britain, France, and Germany, the book throws into relief the field's overemphasis on the United States as the archetype of celebrity culture - [Its] greatest strength is the careful attention paid to the culture of the image and to visual performance throughout." * Critical Quarterly "This is a persuasive and timely collection. Celebrity and charisma are very much on the current research agenda. This volume deals with these issues in a serious, insightful manner, making an original contribution to what is now a rising field of study." * Philip Nord, Princeton Universitymehr
