Description
"_Windows on the Sixties_ explores themes arising from the 'cultural revolution' of the 1960s through analysis of influential productions of the decade. Eight case studies reveal how key texts from the media of film, television, literature and pop music can open 'windows' on the social and cultural transformations taking place during one of the most exciting and controversial periods in recent history. Contributors focus on two American films (_The Apartment_ and _Seven Days in May_) and two British films (_This Sporting Life_ and _A Hard Day's Night_), on three novels by American writer Alison Lurie, on the Beatles' _Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band_ and on two contrasting British television series (_The Avengers_ and _Panorama_). Each writer explores common themes of production and reception, genre and style, drawing together impressions of the era they represent. _Windows on the Sixties_ is both an invaluable guide for teachers and students of history, media and cultural studies and a stimulating account for the general reader."--
