In The Middle Ages and the Movies eminent historian Robert Bartlett
takes a fresh, cogent look at how our view of medieval history has
been shaped by eight significant films of the twentieth century.
The book ranges from the concoction of sex and nationalism in Mel
Gibson's Braveheart, to Fritz Lang's silent masterpiece Siegfried,
the art-house classic The Seventh Seal and the epic historical
drama El Cid. The historical accuracy of these films is examined,
as well as other salient aspects - how was Umberto Eco's Name of
the Rose translated from page to screen? Why is Monty Python and
the Holy Grail funny? And how was Eisenstein's Alexander Nevsky
shaped by the Stalinist tyranny under which it was filmed?
