Traumatic Imprints - Noah Tsika - Bog

"Noah Tsika offers a brilliant exposé of wartime trauma management by the military during World War II. Documentary was crucial to this task. Rich in detail, bold in claims, and teeming with discussions of overlooked films, this is revisionist history at its best."--Bill Nichols, author of Introduction to Documentary "The interminable Wars on Terror tell us that the Cold War age of military trauma has returned in force, if it ever really went away. In this bold, brilliant work of film-historical scholarship, Noah Tsika shows us why, in the words of Hollywood's veterans, Americans continue to be 'nervous out of the service.'"--Jonathan Kahana, author of Intelligence Work: The Politics of American Documentary and editor of The Documentary Film Reader: History, Theory, Criticism
