Abstract:
“Screening Queer Memory is a timely, exuberant research of contemporary cinematic constructions of personal and communal queer memories, histories, legacies and heritages. It provides a genuine, fresh perspective on the intricate interrelations between queer histories and queer cinemas.” – Gilad Padva, Tel Aviv University, Israel
IASH is delighted to support the launch of Dr Anamarija Horvat’s book Screening Queer Memory: LGBTQ Pasts in Contemporary Film and Television (Bloomsbury, 2021). Screening Queer Memory interrogates how contemporary cinema and television have commented on the specificity of queer memory - how they have reflected aspects of its construction, as well as participated in its creation.
