• 摘要註: The medieval film genre is not, in general, concerned with constructing a historically accurate past, but much analysis nonetheless centerson highlighting anachronisms. This book aims to help scholars and aficionados of medieval film think about how the re-creation of an often mythical past performs important cultural work for modern directors and viewers. The essays in this collection demonstrate that directors intentionally insert modern preoccupations into a setting that would normallybe considered incompatible with these concepts. The Middle Ages provide an imaginary space far enough removed from the present day to exploremodern preoccupations with human identity.
