Today’s potent televisual forms were furthermore developed in and strongly influenced by newsreels, and much of the archived newsreel footage is repeatedly used to both illustrate and re-stage past events and their significance. This book addresses newsreel cinema and television as a medium serving the formation of cultural identities in a variety of national contexts after 1945, its role in forming audiovisual narratives of a »biopic of the nation«, and the technical, aesthetical, and political challenges of archiving and restaging cinematic and televisual newsreel UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/30572/1/645337.pdf UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/30572/1/645337.pdf UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/30572/1/645337.pdf UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/27544 ER -
