Music in Films on the Middle Ages - John Haines - Bog

- Authenticity vs. Fantasy

Bag om Music in Films on the Middle Ages

This book explores the role of music in the some five hundred feature-length films on the Middle Ages produced between the late 1890s and the present day. Haines focuses on the tension in these films between the surviving evidence for medieval music and the idiomatic tradition of cinematic music. The latter is taken broadly as any musical sound occurring in a film, from the clang of a bell off-screen to a minstrel singing his song. Medieval film music must be considered in the broader historical context of pre-cinematic medievalisms and of medievalist cinemäs main development in the course of the twentieth century as an American appropriation of European culture.
