Beschreibung:
Heroes, villains, victims, and minions have been the building blocks of moral and political reputations throughout human history. In 'Public Characters', the authors look at visual images, music, and words to show the techniques by which these characters get constructed. They also trace the impact of these public characters in politics, including the 2016 triumph of Donald J. Trump through his ability to cast opponents as villains and minions.
