Tóm tắt

 Paying close attention to the complexity of contemporary public engagement with the past across Europe, the authors question the role and value of the past in cultural and societal changes by investigating hos history is re-imagined by the contemporary film and heritage industries. As concerned with government policies and industrial imperatives as it is with the spectators' emotional engagement with the past
  the way that film and television can shed light on the relationship between the past, the present, the audience and the screen is explored. Who makes and who watches these productions and how they are consumed in cinemas, on television and online? These are just some of the questions this volume seeks to answer.-- Source other than Library of Congress
