Book Synopsis Irish National Cinema by : Ruth Barton

Download or read book Irish National Cinema written by Ruth Barton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-07-31 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the international successes of Neil Jordan and Jim Sheridan, to the smaller productions of the new generation of Irish filmmakers, this book explores questions of nationalism, gender identities, the representation of the Troubles and of Irish history as well as cinema's response to the so-called Celtic Tiger and its aftermath. Irish National Cinema argues that in order to understand the unique position of filmmaking in Ireland and the inheritance on which contemporary filmmakers draw, definitions of the Irish culture and identity must take into account the so-called Irish diaspora and engage with its cinema. An invaluable resource for students of world cinema.
