Millennial Pop Culture

 

Dan Brown managed to start a most amazing climb into every possible best seller list and soon Dreamworks and Tom Hanks will top that with an ambitious movie project.  We are experiencing a new Renaissance with art history and comparative religion as the basis of popular culture.  Not long ago these were genres that belonged to geeks and nerds, the intellectual elite, feminists, artists, graduate students and hippies.  I suppose it was inevitable that these very divergent groups would give rise to a cultural revolution: illuminated popular culture!
