Postmodernism, the Second Generation, and Cross-Cultural Posttraumatic Cinema; Notes; Works Cited; IndexThe appearance of Alain Resnais' 1955 French documentary Night and Fog heralded the beginning of a new form of cinema, one that used the narrative techniques of modernism to provoke a new historical consciousness. Afterimage presents a theory of posttraumatic film based on the encounter between cinema and the Holocaust. Locating its origin in the vivid shock of wartime footage, Afterimage focuses on a group of crucial documentary and fiction films that were pivotal to the spread of this cinematic form across different nations and genres.Joshua Hirsch exploresHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in motion picturesHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in motion picturesWar films - History and criticismWar films -- History and criticismHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in motion pictures.Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in motion pictures.War films - History and criticism.War films -- History and criticism.791.43/658791.43658Hirsch Joshua1633994AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910824019503321Afterimage3974027UNINA
