Beschreibung

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.

Portrait

John E. O'Connor is former Professor of History at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, USA. Martin A. Jackson is co-founder of the Historians Film Committee and taught history and film studies at the State University of New York and the New Jersey Institute of Technology, USA.
