The Case of California
Focusing on the changing image of the West Coast through such varied social and cultural artifacts as bodybuilding, group therapy, suicide cults, Marilyn Monroe, milk-carton images of missing children, orgies, Mickey Mouse, zombies, teenage slang, shock therapy, and surf music, The Case of California offers a dizzying psycho-history of the twentieth century as crystallized in the symbolic configuration and “case” of California, which case is arti…

Warburgs Denkraum: Formen, Motive, Materialien
Zu den besonderen Wortprägungen des Hamburger Kunst- und Kulturwissenschaftlers Aby Warburg gehört die Figur des Denkraums. Darunter verstand er den »im Kampf mit den dämonischen Lebensmächten« gewonnenen Ort zwischen Objekt und Betrachter, an dem Reflexion erst möglich ist.

The vampire lectures
"Bela Lugosi may -- as the eighties gothic rock band Bauhaus sang -- be dead, but the vampire lives on. A nightmarish figure dwelling somewhere between genuine terror and high camp, a morbid repository for the psychic projections of diverse cultures, an endlessly recyclable mass-media icon, the vampire is an enduring object of fascination, fear, ridicule, and reverence. In The Vampire Lectures, Laurence A. Rickels sifts through the rich mythology…
