The University of Limerick is to host a major event dedicated to Morrissey on September 16th.
Along with a performance by the Mozza-endorsed These Charming Men, there will be a panel discussion and the official unveiling of Morrissey: Fandom, Representations and Identities, a collection of 18 essays on his contribution to popular culture.
Edited by UL Senior Lecturer in Sociology Eoin Devereux, Aileen Dillane and Martin Power, it can be ordered from [link]www.intellectbooks.com[/link] for £25.95 on $50.
“Known for his outspoken and often controversial views on class, ethnicity and sexuality, Morrissey has remained an anti-establishment figure who continues to provoke argument, debate and devotion among critics and his many fans,” reads the promo blurb. “Working across a range of academic disciplines and approaches, these essays seek to make sense of the many complexities of this global icon.”
