    Whether on the big screen or small, films featuring the American Civil War are among the most classic and controversial in motion picture history. From D. W. Griffith's Birth of a Nation (1915) to Free State of Jones (2016), the war has provided the setting, ideologies, and character archetypes for cinematic narratives of morality, race, gender, and nation, as well as serving as historical education for a century of Americans. The American Civil War on Film and TV: Blue and Gray in Black and White and Color bring together nineteen essays by a diverse array of scholars across the disciplines to explore these issues. The essays included here span a wide range of films, from the silent era to the present day, including Buster Keaton's The General (1926), Red Badge of Courage (1951), Glory (1989), Gettysburg (1993), and Cold Mountain (2003), as well as television mini-series The Blue and The Gray (1982) and John Jakes' acclaimed North and South trilogy (1985-86). As an accessible volume to dedicated to a critical conversation about the Civil War on film, The American Civil War on Film and TV will appeal to not only to scholars of film, military history, American history, and cultural history, but to fans of war films and period films, as well

    "In The Scars We Carve: Bodies and Wounds in Civil War Print Culture, Allison M. Johnson uncovers the ubiquitous images of bodies--white and black, male and female, solider and noncombatant--that appear throughout newspapers, lithographs, poems, tales, and other texts circulated during and in the decades immediately following the Civil War. These images underscore the extent to which the violence and destruction of the internecine conflict marked the physical bodies of American citizens and the geographic and symbolic bodies of the American republic. In contrast to narratives of the Civil War that stress ideological abstraction, disembodiment, and reconciliation, Johnson shows that the era's print culture contains a literary and visual record of the war that is embodied and individualized. She finds this record inscribed on the pages of newspapers and journals, in the left-handed writing of recent amputees, and in the words of little-read and rarely anthologized amateur poets and storytellers. Throughout this innovative study, Johnson underscores how American citizens interacted with and represented the physical effects of war to create a literary record permeated by corporeality and suffering"--
