{"product_id":"defeated-masculinity-dominique-nasta-9789052014692","title":"Defeated Masculinity: Post-Traumatic Cinema in the Aftermath of War","description":"The burgeoning field of trauma and cinema is an exciting development within contemporary trauma studies. The author of this book describes the complex relationship between cinema and the trauma of defeat in war. An asymmetric and non-binary comparison of two test cases, post-World War II New German Cinema and post-Vietnam War American cinema, illuminates the indirect and intriguing ways these societies have dealt with the enormous psycho-cultural difficulty of acknowledging their defeat and understanding its manifold meanings. \u003cbr\u003e This book draws on psychoanalysis, masculinity studies, and corporeal feminism to explore the bodily experience of defeat. It examines themes and representations of body and sexuality to create a theoretical framework that reveals anew the link between defeated masculinity and nationalism. Building on an original analysis of such varied films as \u003ci\u003eThe Deer Hunter\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFull Metal Jacket\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Tin Drum\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eParis Texas\u003c\/i\u003e, the author suggests new criteria that highlight the characteristics of post-traumatic cinema.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dominique Nasta,Raya Morag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9052014698\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789052014692\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e P.I.E-Peter Lang S.A., Editions Scientifiques\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/24\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Dominique Nasta","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48450166456575,"sku":"9789052014692","price":49.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aceb5ced-d9c1-4a96-9ca6-b2cb39c63682.jpg?v=1777266490","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/defeated-masculinity-dominique-nasta-9789052014692","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
