Book Synopsis Phantasmagorical Culture: A Discussion of Disney as a Creator and a Cultural Phenomenon by : Genevieve C. Goddard-Pritchett
Book excerpt: Culture is informed by both the producers and consumers of that culture. However, in the case of the Walt Disney corporation, the producer is so powerful that it is not just informing culture but making a new culture all its own. Through playing on ideas of nostalgia, utopia, and the American dream, Disney has consturcted a world of fantasy that is becoming real in the eyes of consumers.
