At Stake: Monsters and the Rhetoric of Fear in Public Culture
Edward Ingebretsen
The media uses variations of the word "monster" to describe unthinkable acts of violence. This work explores the social construction of monstrousness in public discourse - tabloids, television, magazines, sermons, and poular fiction - arguing that the monster serves as a moralizing function.
