Lecture
The New Mythical Hero: Masculinity and Technology in American Cinema
Description
This lecture explores the portrayal of masculinity and technology in American cinema from 1968 to 2014, analyzing how images of the frontier as a place of abundance and magic contrast with the metropolitan reality of scarcity and hard work. Drawing from Richard Slotkin's work, the lecture delves into the myth of the frontier and its implications on personal transformation and societal norms.
