This book offers an original analysis of the movement and its defining films from the perspective of the cultural unconscious. Combining a Jungian reading with traditional theorisations of film and national identity, Filming The Nation re-interprets familiar images of well-known masterpieces by Roberto Rossellini, Vittorio de Sica and Luchino Visconti and introduces some of their less renowned yet equally significant films. Providing an illuminating analysis of film images across a particularly traumatic and complex historical period, Filming The Nation revisits the concept of national identity and its 'construction' from a perspective which combines cultural, psychoanalytic and post-Jungian theories. As such this book will be essential reading for all students and scholars of film and psychoanalysis"-- 0aMotion pictureszItaly. 0aMotion picturesxPsychological aspects. 0aCulture in motion pictures. 0aItalyxIn motion pictures.
