American History/American Film: Interpreting the Hollywood Image: Film Studies: Bloomsbury Academic Collections

Editat de John E. O'Connor, Martin A. Jackson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 oct 2016
In this pioneering work, sixteen historians analyse individual films for deeper insight into US institutions, values and lifestyles. Linking all of the essays is the belief that film holds much of value for the historian seeking to understand and interpret American history and culture. This title will be equally valuable for students and scholars in history using film for analysis as well as film students and scholars exploring the way social and historical circumstances are reflected and represented in film.
