This book explores contemporary media’s reliance on nostalgia in video games, movies, streaming sites, and even social media in their attempt to attract audiences of all generations. The book is interdisciplinary in approach and looks at the implications of this mediated past-focus on our cultural identities and our perception of memory itself.
Nostalgic Generations and Media: Perception of Time and Available Meaning argues that the cultural rise in nostalgic media has the multi-generational impact of making the subjective experience of time speed up for those who are nostalgic, as well as create a surrogate nostalgic identity for younger generations by continually feeding them the content of their elders. This book is recommended for scholars interested in communication, media studies, and memory/nostalgia studies.
