Libro Prima edizione
Condizione: Sehr gut. 1st ed. 304 p., many ill. From the estate of Kurt Scheel, German publicist. - Overall very good and clean. - THERE IS NO DENYING THE TREMENDOUS power movies have in shaping our perceptions of the past. From Julius Caesar to Joan of Arc to Gandhi, many of history's greatest figures have become inextricably bound to their screen images. When most people come upon a photo of General George S. Patton in a history book, they expect to see the image of George C. Scott. And they think incorrectly that Captain Bligh routinely flogged his crew. Misconceptions such as these are as abundant as, historical films themselves. A Man for All Seasons presents Thomas More as a benevolent martyr of conscience, and this More quickly became our More. Unfortunately, as More biographer Richard Marius reveals, the man depicted on film is nothing like the real More, who shrieked for the blood of Protestants and gloated when they burned. It may not be the job of filmmakers to ensure the historical accuracy of these films, especially when deviation serves a compelling dramatic purpose. But wouldn't it be useful and fascinating to learn what has been changed, and for what reason? In Past Imperfect: History According to the Movies, sixty of the world's most lauded historical writers look beneath the celluloid surface of popular movies to examine the relationship between film and the historical record. Beginning with a probing conversation between historian Eric Foner and director John Sayles (Eight Men Out, Matewan), Past Imperfect surveys nearly one hundred classic films, including Spartacus, Gone with the Wind, The Grapes of Wrath, and Malcolm X. Best-selling authors such as Gore Vidal, James M. McPherson, Antonia Fraser, William Manchester, and Simon Schama skewer, praise, pick apart, and otherwise illuminate these cinematic portrayals of history, telling us as much about what the filmmakers got right as about where they went wrong. There can be no more qualified guides to these films than the contributors to Past Imperfect, all of whom are prominent authorities in their fields. Who better to lead you through the intricacies of the D-Day invasion, as re-created in The Longest Day, than prize-winning author Stephen E. Ambrose? And who better to explain the complications of reconstructing dinosaur DNA in Jurassic Park than renowned paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould? Past Imperfect adds a new dimension to these beloved films, filling in the gaps left by Hollywood's mythmaking machinery and refreshing our love of the movies as it expands our understanding of the events that inspired them. - Mark C. CARNES is the chairman of the Department of History at Barnard College, Columbia University, and the executive secretary of the Society of American Historians.
