Product Information
After a slow and inauspicious beginning, Seinfeld broke through to become one of the most commercially successful sitcoms in the history of television. This fascinating book includes classic articles on the show by Geoffrey OBrien and Bill Wyman (first published in the New York Review of Books and Salon.com respectively), and a selection of new and revised essays by some of the top television scholars in the US looking at issues as wide-ranging as Seinfelds Jewishness, alleged nihilism, food obsession, and long-running syndication. The book also includes a comprehensive episode guide, and Betty Lees lexicon of Seinfeld language.

Reviews
Readers familiar with academic &"cultural studies&" aren't likely to tingle with anticipation when our eyes fall on a scholarly article from the Centre for Women's Studies and Gender Research at Monash University in Melbourne. And the title of Joanna L. Di Mattia's essay, &"Male Anxiety and the Buddy System in Seinfeld,&" does nothing to lighten our mood. We expect to be rewarded, at best, with the warm feeling of virtue that follows the performance of a duty requiring heavy lifting. But it turns out that Jerry, George, Elaine and Kramer, whose program ceased production in 1998 but still circles the planet in endless reruns, provide as much fun for academics as for the rest of us. With their lives and their world now sealed off in a 20th-century time capsule, they have become appropriate subjects for cheeky theorizing in the universities. Di Mattia's essay, for instance, explores a fascinating question with persuasive force. While not for a moment suggesting that Jerry and George be compared to cowboys on Brokeback Mountain, she nevertheless deftly makes the point that as TV characters they are the perfect married couple. Her essay appears in Seinfeld, Master of Its Domain: Revisiting Television's Greatest Sitcom (Continuum), edited by David Lavery and Sara Lewis Dunne of Middle Tennessee State University. This isn't the first attempt to provide fodder for Seinfeld studies -- earlier works include William Irwin's 1999 collection, Seinfeld and Philosophy: A Book about Everything and Nothing, and Shows About Nothing: Nihilism in Popular Culture from The Exorcist to Seinfeld, written by Thomas S. Hibbs in 2000. But this latest book notably differs in tone from standard university products. Appreciation and enjoyment, combined with wonder at the cleverness of the program's writers, set the tone. The platoon of scholars writing the essays understand Seinfeld as brilliant popular art, not merely a specimen demanding intellectual dissection. This means we can admire their insights without giving up our love for the best television farce we'll ever see. -The National Post, Toronto, "Noted television and pop culture academic and critic Lavery-who has previously written and edited scholarly texts on such television supernovas as Twin Peaks, The X-Files, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer-has whipped up a frothy egg cream of an essay collection on Seinfeld for eggheads. Sixteen essays (some new, some previously published and revised) are divided among four topical sections with an afterword and supplementary material featuring a glossary of Seinfeld terms and expressions and an episode guide. The essays in Part 1 generally give an overview of the show before segueing into Part 2's exploration of "genre, humor, and intertexuality." Part 3 treats issues of "gender, generations, and ethnicity," while Part 4 concludes with essays on "cultural, pop cultural, and media matters." As Lavery notes in his preface, despite Seinfeld's iconic stature-half of us loved it, and the other half loved to hate it-only one serious monograph has been published. This anthology featuring the likes of Geoffrey O'Brien and Eleanor Hersey will best serve academic media and pop culture collections and serious readers who like their TV eggs hard-boiled. The recent release of the show on DVD should increase interest".- Library Journal, February 2006, " Seinfeld, Master of Its Domain is all aboutinterpretation.
