National Fictions: Literature, film and the construction of Australian narrative
Autor Graeme Turneren Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mar 2021
The second edition of this influential work includes a new Afterword which traces recent changes in Australian literature and film, examining the growth of women's writing and popular fiction, as well as current trends in Australian cinema. Turner asks whether these developments really mark a shift in the Australian narrative, and whether it is still possible to speak in terms of a national culture.
'.a ground-clearing book. a seminal work, setting an agenda for cultural studies beyond the stockyards and croquet lawns of literary criticism.' - David Carter, Australian Literary Studies
'As a global syncretist, Turner is without peer.' - Stuart Cunningham, Media Information Australia
