Though often defined as having opposite aims, means, and effects, modernism and modern propaganda developed at the same time and influenced each other in surprising ways. The professional propagandist emerged as one kind of information specialist, the modernist writer as another. Britain was particularly important to this double history. By secretly hiring well-known writers and intellectuals to write for the government and by exploiting their control of new global information systems, the British in World War I invented a new template for the manipulation of information that remains with us to this day. Making a persuasive case for the importance of understanding modernism in the context of the history of modern propaganda, Modernism, Media, and Propaganda also helps explain the origins of today's highly propagandized world. Modernism, Media, and Propaganda integrates new archival research with fresh interpretations of British fiction and film to provide a comprehensive cultural history of the relationship between modernism and propaganda in Britain during the first half of the twentieth century. From works by Joseph Conrad to propaganda films by Alfred Hitchcock and Orson Welles, Mark Wollaeger traces the transition from literary to cinematic propaganda while offering compelling close readings of major fiction by Virginia Woolf, Ford Madox Ford, and James Joyce.

En 1945, après avoir constitué un puissant instrument de propagande sous le Troisième Reich, le cinéma allemand est réduit à néant et se trouve soumis au bon vouloir des puissances d’occupation. Tout en affirmant sa volonté de dénazifier et de rééduquer les Allemands, chacune d’elles entreprend de relancer et de développer les activités cinématographiques d’une façon conforme à ses intérêts. Cette étude se propose de cerner les caractéristiques, l’évolution et le rayonnement de l’action menée par les Français. L’importance qu’ils accordent au cinéma se traduit par de nombreuses mesures : réouverture des salles, installation d’ateliers et de studios, création de sociétés francoallemandes, sélection et diffusion de films français, organisation de galas et de festivals, mise en place de ciné-clubs… Si certaines réalisations s’inscrivent dans une politique de rééducation, d’autres dénotent une volonté de rehausser le prestige de la France et d’implanter le cinéma français en Allemagne. En même temps, des accords passés avec les autres puissances d’occupation témoignent de l’impact du contexte international (émergence de la Guerre Froide et adhésion progressive de la France à la politique anglo-américaine) sur le cinéma.

"When the Bolsheviks seized power in the Soviet Union during 1917, they were suffering from a substantial political legitimacy deficit. Uneasy political foundations meant that they were always on the defensive and cinema became a key part of the strategy to protect the existence of the USSR. This welcome book shows how one of film's central functions was as an important means of convincing the masses that the regime was legitimate and a bearer of historical truth. Based on extensive research in archives and primary sources, the book examines the interaction between politics and the Soviet cinema industry during the period between Stalin's rise to power and the beginning of the Great Patriotic War. This was the era when the Bolsheviks were trying to develop a 'cinema for the millions', which sought to engage Soviet citizens politically by carefully blending entertainment with the communist message. Jamie Miller investigates how political and administrative decision-making, censorship, thematic planning and purges were shaped by the Bolsheviks' defensive outlook, which in turn had a largely negative impact on the production process. He examines the role of film unions and societies, compares the development of two different studios and looks at the education system for cinema personnel. He also analyses key films of the period, including the classic musical Circus, the class enemy drama The Party Card and the political epic The Great Citizen."--Page 4 of cover.
