Zusammenfassung:"The death and funeral of Diana, Princess of Wales was one of the biggest television spectacles the world has ever seen. Drawing on unique and wide-ranging in-depth replies from people around the country, the book examines the role television played in providing up-to-the-minute news about this tragic event, its role in shaping public perceptions about the 'mass outpourings of grief' and assesses whether the television coverage of the Princess's funeral revitalised the connection between individual viewers and the core values of a wider society." "The book goes on to explore the reason why the Princess's death affected so many people who had never met her and suggests that television genres such as news and soap opera are integral to the way we think about the world around us." "Interpreting Diana is the first book to present original evidence of viewer's responses to one of the defining historical and media events of our times."--BOOK JACKET.
