Opis produktu
śyvind Vągnes is a postdoctoral fellow at the research center Nomadikon: New Ecologies of the Image in the Department of Information Science and Media Studies at the University of Bergen Norway.bWinner Peter C. Rollins Book Award 2012/b/As the fiftieth anniversary of the Kennedy assassination approaches the traumatic aspects of the tragedy continue to haunt our perceptions of the 1960s. One reason for this lies in the home movie of the incident filmed by Abraham Zapruder a bystander who became one of the twentieth centurys most important accidental documentarians./The first book devoted exclusively to the topic citeZaprudered/cite traces the journey of the film and its effect on the worlds collective imagination. Providing insightful perspective as an observer of American culture Norwegian media studies scholar Ø:yvind Vągnes begins by analyzing three narratives that are projections of Zapruders images: performance group Ant Farms video citeThe Eternal Frame/cite Don DeLillos novel citeUnderworld/cite and an episode from emSeinfeld/em. Subsequent topics he investigates include Dealey Plazas Sixth Floor Museum Zoran Naskovskis installation citeDeath in Dallas/cite assassin video games and other artifacts of the ways in which the footage has made a lasting impact on popular culture and the historical imagination. Vągnes also explores the role of other accidental documentarians such as those who captured scenes of 9/11./Zapruders footage has never yielded a conclusive account of what happened in Dealey Plaza. citeZaprudered/cite thoroughly examines both this historical enigma and its indelible afterimages in our collective imagination./ul lAcknowledgments /l lIntroduction /l lChapter One.
