History Goes To the Movies

Modern history lecturer Dr Marnie Hughes-Warrington talks about her latest book History goes to the movies: studying history on film...



Listen to the first part (0'00" to 1'36") and answer the following questions:
  • How many books has she so far published?
  • What’s her opinion on film (general view)?
  • What’s her opinion on historical film (as a historian)?
  • What’s the point she wants to make in her latest book?
  • Why are history films particularly valuable?
It's pretty difficult... so blame me if you have a hard time with that! (at least it sounds much better here than in the classroom)
