Opis

Rumor, hearsay, tittle-tattle, scuttlebutt, scandal, dirt - whatever the term, gossip is one of the most common, and most condemned, forms of discourse in which we engage. And even as it is often absorbing and socially significant, it is also widely denigrated. This engaging volume brings together fascinating case studies in the history of gossip in America, from colonial witchcraft trials to the era of People magazine and flash-in-the-pan Internet celebrities. Here, contributors from a variety of disciplines explore the role of gossip in American society, culture, and politics, tracing its changes and continuities over time and making a compelling case for reassessing a too-readily dismissed dimension of social exchange.
