Looks at the enduring public responses to the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, in 1997Although primarily about the memory of Diana, this book is also about her life and memorialisation, making an important contribution to discussions of nationality and nationalism, ethnic and cultural belonging and to questions of BritishnessWide-ranging in its coverage of both historical and contemporary discussions of cultural and party politics Covers the period from 1980s to the present dayRefreshing in its insistence that feminist, queer and critical race theories can not only critique, but also offer radical potentialities for action

Beschreibung

Analysing the events surrounding the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, in 1997, Vic Seidler considers the public outpourings of grief and displays of emotion which prompted new kinds of identification and belonging in which communities came together regardless of race, class, gender and sexuality.
