Description

For three generations of Americans, World War II has served as a primary way to understand global conflict and the role of the United States in world affairs. This Routledge research book examines how American media shapes the way this history is remembered and understood. While the war helped define American perceptions of conflict, the media produced in the decades following has had an equal impact on how the war is viewed today. This study focuses on key popular films, television series, and digital games released over the last twenty years. It explores the influence the war continues to have on Americans born more than thirty years after the conflict ended. By looking at these specific media formats, the book explains how the war is configured in the modern cultural landscape. This is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in cultural and media studies, film history, and the way historical memory is constructed through popular entertainment.
