4.9/5 (30650 ratings)

Description:Revisiting the French Resistance in Cinema, Literature, Bande Dessin�e, and Television (1942-2012) explores the fine line between fiction and history and considers how France's cultural production has contributed to shaping the image of the French Resistance and to a presumed understanding of this critical and contentious movement in modern French history. It discusses themes including the making of the myth of an honorable country united against a common enemy, comedies gently poking fun at it, fictions debunking it straightforwardly, historical allegories offering a dissenting voice during the Occupation or contesting the new doxa in its aftermath, the invisibility and resurfacing of women in films and novels, and contemporary depictions of the Resistance on television. It offers a panoramic view of the evolution of the representation and historiography of the Resistance through various cultural mediums: films, novels, poetry, comics, television series, and docufiction. Though an examination of the lenses through which France has regarded its recent past, it offers a key to understanding France's national psyche that will be valuable to scholars of French history, literature, cinema, and media.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
