Blue-Collar Hollywood: Liberalism, Democracy, and Working People in American Film
ISBN: 9780801871498 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. From Tom Joad to Norma Rae to Spike Lee's Mookie in Do the Right Thing, Hollywood has regularly dramatized the lives and struggles of working people in America. Ranging from idealistic to hopeless, from sympathetic to condescending, these portrayals confronted audiences with the vital economic, social, and political issues of their times while providing a diversion--sometimes entertaining, sometimes provocative--from the realities of their own lives. In Blue-Collar Hollywood, John Bodnar examines the ways in which popular American films made between the 1930s and the...

The Good War in American Memory
ISBN: 9781421405827 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. The -Good War- in American Memory dispels the long-held myth that Americans forged an agreement on why they had to fight in World War II. John Bodnar's sociocultural examination of the vast public debate that took place in the United States over the war's meaning reveals that the idea of the -good war- was highly contested. Bodnar's comprehensive study of the disagreements that marked the American remembrance of World War II in the six decades following its end draws on an array of sources: fiction and nonfiction, movies, theater, and public monuments. He identifies... The -Good War- in American Memory dispels the long-held myth that Americans forged an agreement on why they had to fight in World War II. J... |

Bonds of Affection: Americans Define Their Patriotism
ISBN: 9780691043968 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. During the Civil War, Walt Whitman described his admiration for the Union soldiers' loyalty to the ideal of democracy. His argument, that this faith bonded Americans to their nation, has received little critical attention, yet today it raises increasingly relevant questions about American patriotism in the face of growing nationalist sentiment worldwide. Here a group of scholars explores the manner in which Americans have discussed and practiced their patriotism over the past two hundred years. Their essays investigate, for example, the extent to which the promise of democracy has...
