This book offers a comparative study of historical television
genres in Europe, with a special focus on Germany and Great Britain
and their way of narrating twentieth century European history. The
book analyses our common European past and memory through central
historical television narratives. Each chapter looks at how
historical TV genres, fictional and documentary, have dealt with
the most salient and defining periods, events and changes in the
twentieth century- an age of extremes. Bondebjerg offers unique
theoretical and analytical insight into the role of television in
mediating and shaping the past. The book explores television's
creation of transnational cultural encounters across Europe in
relation to our common and national past. The book addresses how
television has influenced our understanding of history, collective
memory and public debate over the twentieth century. It is
fundamentally a book about the importance of the past in present
day Europe and the centrality of media for transnational
understanding.
