Newsreel cinema and television not only served as an important tool
in the shaping of political spheres and the construction of
national and cultural identities up to the 1960s. 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.
