SELFIES: WHY WE LOVE (AND HATE) THEM
Book ID/图书代码： 18C00169
English Summary/英文概要： This book brings a rich and nuanced analysis of selfie culture. It shows how selfies gain their meanings, illustrates different selfie practices, explores how selfies make us feel and why they have the power to make us feel anything, and unpacks how selfie practices and selfie related norms have changed or might change in the future.
As humans, we have a long history of being drawn to images, of communicating visually, and being enchanted with (our own) faces. Every day we share hundreds of millions of photos on Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat. Selfies are continually and passionately talked about. People take vast amounts of selfies, and generate more attention than most other social media content. But selfies are persistently attacked as being unworthy of all of this attention: they lack artistic merit; indicate a pathological fascination with one’s self; or attribute to dangerously stupid behaviour.
This book explores the social, cultural and technological context surrounding selfies and their subsequent meaning.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 这本书对自拍文化进行了丰富而细致的分析。它展示了自拍是如何产生意义的，展示了不同的自拍实践，探索了自拍如何让我们产生感觉，以及为什么它们有能力让我们产生感觉，并揭示了自拍实践和自拍相关规范是如何变化的，或者未来可能会发生什么变化。作为人类，我们有很长一段时间被图像所吸引，被视觉交流所吸引，被(我们自己的)面孔所吸引。我们每天在脸书、图片集和色拉布上分享数亿张照片。自拍一直是人们津津乐道的话题。人们会拍大量的自拍照，比大多数其他社交媒体内容更能引起关注。但自拍一直被抨击为不值得所有这些关注:它们缺乏艺术价值;表明一种病态的对自我的迷恋;或归因于危险的愚蠢行为。
这本书探讨了自拍的社会、文化和技术背景，以及随之而来的意义。（WYL）
