Focussing on the golden age of the Hollywood epic in the fifties and the twenty-first century second wave of big screen productions, she provides an over-arching picture that allows historical trends and developments to be demonstrated and contrasted. \u003cbr\u003eEngaging with recent scholarship on film, particularly film and theology as well as classical reception, she considers the presentation of these gods through examination of their physical and moral characteristics, as well as their interaction with the human world, against the background of the social contexts of each production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lisa Maurice\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474425739\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474425735\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/06\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.40w x 0.80d","brand":"Lisa Maurice","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46217002418431,"sku":"9781474425735","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_342da006-66b7-4c04-8d9d-49ccb995a230.jpg?v=1728513988","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/screening-divinity-lisa-maurice-9781474425735","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
