Bücher von Eckart Voigts-Virchow

This collection of essays reviews the wave of costume dramas and literary adaptations that has surfaced on Anglo-American TV screens and in cinemas worldwide after the Austenmania of the mid- 1990s. Addressing keywords such as nostalgia, historicity, authenticity, adaptation, pictorialism, 'pastness', and 'imagined communities', discussions of recent classic TV serials, heritage films, and revisionist heritage films cover the very heartland of cultural studies and gender studies.
