Half-Life of Atomic Bomb. Decontextualization of Texts of the Cold War Popular Culture on the Example of "Watchmen"

Summary/Abstract: The article analyses and interprets Watchmen by Moore, Gibbons and Higgins incomparison with its movie adaptation directed by Zack Snyder. The hypothesis is thatthere is an observed phenomenon metaphorically called “half-life of atomic bomb”, duringwhich the theme of the fear of the A-Bomb is gradually rinsed out of the popular/massculture. This case study is to be treated as an introduction to further inquiry into the topicbased on a wider selection of texts.
