«The Reimagined Community» is a comparative study of European cinema and the political shift from national traditions to transnational cooperation. The European peace project is reactivated with a fresh analysis of film cultures as critical history lessons. Nationalism emerged in a close interplay with print media after the Reformation. Today, the movies have become a primary source to explore the postnationalist turn. «The Reimagined Community» replaces narrow specialization with a historical kaleidoscope of culture bound syndromes, changing gender systems, and ethnic conflict fields.
Olle Sjögren, Professor Emeritus of Film Studies at Gothenburg University. PhD dissertation on American film comics. Published books (in Swedish) about Marxism and cinema, film violence, youth cultures, television entertainment, and Chinese cinemas.
