| Abstract | "The New American War Film explores how, in the wake of 9/11, both the nature of military conflict and the symbolic frameworks that surround it have been dramatically reshaped. Drawing attention to changes in gender dynamics and the focus on war's lasting psychological effects within recent films, Robert Burgoyne demonstrates how cinema both reflects and reveals the national imaginary"-- Provided by publisher. |
