Publisher's Synopsis

'The Rosary and the Microphone' explores U2 as a politically engaged band that manifests a particular brand of Christianity through the band's mediation in a global context and for a global audience. Through the primarily semiotic study of U2's various mediations, this book maps the band's strategies for negotiating its place in the world as a global band - and mediated brand - and as a proponent of a kind of cosmopolitanism, or global care.
