This collection engages Springsteen and popular music as his contemporary work is just beginning to be understood in terms of its impact on popular culture and music. Chapters primarily consider work released since 9/11 under the headings Politics, Fear and Society; Gender and Sexual Identity; and Toward a Rhetoric of Springsteen. Offering context, critique, and expansive understanding of Springsteen and his work, this book contributes to Springsteen scholarship and the study of popular music by showing Springsteen's broadening academic appeal as well as his escalating legacy on new musicians, social consciousness, and contemporary culture.
