ISBN: 9781571815910 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Exile is the dominant theme of our times.

The essays in this volume examine issues such as remembering and forgetting trauma and nostalgia, time and space, social and sexual exclusion in relation to visual media and new technologies, cinema and the visual arts. The multi-facetted and... Exile is the dominant theme of our times. It can be found in the forced migration of populations but also in the temporal, cultural and physical a... |
