Resource summary
9 Nostalgia
the past v. present
attraction to the past because it is complete
unsatisfying present, good old days past (Hobsbawm 1997)
fleeting nature, reality fiction blurred boundaries, collapse of time and space, intensified by media and consumer culture
past highly marketable, acceleration of tech
Baudrillard
Third Order of Simulacrum
heritage simulations
own realities
Jameson
cultural schizophrenia
perpetual present
history becomes phantasy (mediated images of past)
' intertextuality” as a deliberate, built in feature of the aesthetic effect ... displaces real history'
historicism
not longing for authentic past (irrelevant in PM) but the style
cherry picking history
demand for past: tv viewing, heritage, vintage, retro communities
re-enchanting the present?
romanticized/idealised
even bad past still perceived as good
Past is tangible and secure- Lowenthal
Nostalgia Industry
themes create options= more consumption
Periods that we remember
Periods we dont remember
manufactured, idealized past
memory banks (Recuber)
Retrophilic culture
fans create utopian spaces (Grey, 2007)
Sassatelli- dreaming with eyes open
Spitalfields House- made up story
aestheticization, similar to abandoned places
avatar, vintage presence
Us and them perspective
where are you? what time period
historical simulacra eg. Retrospective Magazine
Escapist
'alternative to unacceptable present' Lowenthal
anaesthetic, decelaration (a perceived simpler existance), provides structure
Considering the past: commodity, antidote, spectacle
Authenticity
urgency to find genuine, paradox authenticity irrelevant in PM
connect to past, distance from present
Benjamin: aura of genuine objects unfindable in present
Identity
fashion, values, individuality (jameson says a thing of the past)
Response
Dialectical opposition > the rejection of advanced consumerism and yet the nostalgia (consumer) industry permits us to travel back in time
