Crime Scenery in Postwar Film and Photography
ISBN: 9783031088889 / Angielski / Miękka / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book offers a rare and innovative consideration of an enduring tendency in postwar art to explore places devoid of human agents in the wake of violent encounters. To see the scenery together with the crime elicits a double interrogation, not merely of a physical site but also of its formation as an aesthetic artefact, and ultimately of our own acts of looking and imagining. Closely engaging with a vast array of works made by artists, filmmakers and photographers, each who has forged a distinct vantage point on the aftermath of crime and conflict, the study selectively maps the afterlife...

Finding Gallipoli: Battlefield Remembrance and the Movement of Australian and Turkish History
ISBN: 9783030988784 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The Battle Over America's Origin Story: Legends, Amateurs, and Professional Historiographers
ISBN: 9783030995379 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines the legends of who ‘really’ discovered America. It argues that histories of America's origins were always based less on empirical evidence and more on social, political, and cultural wish fulfillment. Influenced by a complex interplay of Nativist hatred of immigrants and Aboriginal people, as well as distrust of academic scholarship, these legends ebbed and flowed with changing conditions in wider American society. The book focuses on the actions of a collection of quirky, obsessed amateur investigators who spent their lives trying to prove their various theories...
