A companion to Grant Tracey's \u003ci\u003eFilmography of American History\u003c\/i\u003e, this critical reference book selects movies that represent aspects of world history from the middle ages through the twentieth century. These films adopt as their subject a wide range of historical events, people and societies of Africa, Asia-Pacific, Europe and Canada, and Latin America. Films are arranged alphabetically, with cross referencing by geographic area, time period, and five themes: History as Biography; Crossing Cultures; Civil, International and Sectarian Conflict; Society: Modernization and Tradition; and Redefining Historical Narrative. Each film entry includes production data, current U.S. home videodistributors, geographical and time setting, plot description, and references to critical literature. Over half of the entries provide extended analysis of the historical interpretation the film brings to the screen. \u003ci\u003eFilmography of World History\u003c\/i\u003e argues for the potential of feature films to teach us about the past and its reconstruction in academe and popular culture. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book offers an historian's perspective on films as varied as \u003ci\u003eArarat\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBlack Rain\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLin Zexu\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSaladin\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eWinstanley\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eJudgment at Nuremberg\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eDistant Thunder\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Official Story\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCabeza de Vaca\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNewsfront\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLumumba\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eDaresalam\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Great White Man of Lambaréné\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Deanne Schultz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0313326819\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780313326813\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Greenwood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/30\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.04h x 7.20w x 0.85d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2007 pg. 243\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/02\/2007 pg. 266","brand":"Deanne Schultz","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44056864882943,"sku":"9780313326813","price":73.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4f855b4e-7a42-4e0e-a447-acbd77074df7.jpg?v=1685043687","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/filmography-of-world-history-deanne-schultz-9780313326813","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
