500 _aAlthough Film Studies has successfully (re)turned attention to matters of style and interpretation, its sibling discipline has left the territory uncharted - until now. The question of how television operates stylistically has been critically underexplored despite being fundamental to our viewing experience. This significant new work redresses a vital gap in Television Studies by engaging with the stylistic dynamics of TV, exploring the aesthetic properties and values of both the medium and particular types of output (specific programmes), and raising important questions about the way we judge television as both cultural artefact and art form. Television Aesthetics and Style provide a unique and vital intervention, raising critical questions about television's artistic properties and possibilities. Through a series of case studies by internationally renowned scholars, the collection takes a radical step forward in understanding TV's stylistic achievements.
