Matthiessen's From the heart of Europe -- What's black and white and red all over? the Cold War and the geopolitics of race -- What it takes to be a man : masculinity, deviance, and sexuality -- The dreaded voyage into the world : nomadic ethics -- Frontier mythographies : savagery and civilization in John Ford.The Cold War was unique in the way films, books, television shows, colleges and universities, and practices of everyday life were enlisted to create American political consensus. This coercion fostered a seemingly hegemonic, nationally unified perspective devoted to spreading a capitalist, socially conservative notion of freedom throughout the world to fight Communism. This book traces the historical contours of this manufactured consent by considering the ways in which authors, playwrights, and directors participated in, responded to, and resisted the construction of Cold War discourses.American literature20th centuryHistory and criticismCold War in literaturePolitics in literaturePolitics and literatureUnited StatesHistory20th centuryCold War in motion picturesPolitics in motion picturesAmerican literatureHistory and criticism.Cold War in literature.Politics in literature.Politics and literatureHistoryCold War in motion pictures.Politics in motion pictures.810.9/3582825Redding Arthur F.1964-1647216StDuBDSStDuBDSBOOK9910955902203321Turncoats, traitors, and fellow travelers4378377UNINA
