By looking at a variety of cultural material (advertising, songs, literary texts, TV shows, newspaper reports, guidebooks etc) we will investigate how everyday meanings about the everyday are constructed and circulated. We will also consider how discourses change and conflict. The focus will be primarily but not exclusively on Britain. Possible aspects of everyday life we might investigate are: food and drink, dress and undress, queuing, sport, going to the pub and many more.
