On the other hand, when we talk about cinema as an instrument to narrate the past, we refer to the public use of history, a field in which historians have to compete with other professional figures.
Finally, cinema can be considered an agent of history when studying its capability to influence and construct behaviours, trends, passions and identities.
Understanding the various languages and representations can be an essential tool for historians working in the field of cultural and social history interested in the transmission of values, ideas and representations of the historical past of different eras.
The course focuses on representation on cinema and television and in particular on the following topic: “Times of crisis. War, violence and society ".
War and violence are phenomena that goes along with human societies throughout their own development, therefore the course questions the specific aspects of representations and imagery linked to different eras. A conspicuous number of films will be examined and each student will be able to identify their own path by selecting from those indicated, ten films of their own interest.
To this end, the following films and products for television will be analysed; students will have to see and analyse 10 of the following films.
