The Persistence of History is an anthology of essays from major film scholars and historians which focuses on a radical contemporary challenge to historical representation in film.
The Persistence of History examines how the moving image has completely altered traditional modes of historical thought and representation. Exploring a range of film and video texts, from The Ten Commandments to the Rodney King video, from the projected work of documentarian Errol Morris to Oliver Stone''s JFK and Spielberg''s Schindler''s List, the volume questions the appropriate forms of media for making the incoherence and fragmentation of contemporary history intelligible.
