Through the Second World War and its aftermath, from economic boom to industrial decline, Europeans have faced similar changes in politics and their outlook on life. But even on the eve of the formation of a single European community, their cultural backgrounds are far from unified. In European Cinemas, European Societies Pierre Sorlin looks at the way the nations of Europe have expressed their cultural individuality in film. For instance, why do French films have such a distinctive style, different from the products of Hollywood, Germany, Italy and Britain? Sorlin also examines how the impact of a common evolution toward federalism can be detected in films.

From such films as La Dolce Vita and Bicycle Thieves to Cinema Paradiso and Dear Diary, Italian cinema has provided striking images of Italy as a nation and a people. In the first comprehensive study of Italian cinema from 1886-1996, Pierre Sorlin explores the changing relationship of Italian cinema and Italian society and asks whether the national cinema really does represent Italian interests and culture.

We all know what it is to dream, but we also know how difficult it is to describe or interpret dreams, or explain what they actually are. To attempt to articulate a dream is to realize how inadequate our words are to describe the experience. Dreams are beyond words, consisting of much more than what we can say about them. In Dreamtelling, Pierre Sorlin does not deal with our nocturnal visions per se, but rather with what we say regarding them. He explores the influence of dreams on our imaginations, and the various – sometimes inconsistent, always imperfect – theories people have contrived to elucidate them. Sorlin shows how our accounts are built on recurrent patterns, but are also totally and entirely individual. He examines the urge to analyze night visions and why it is that some people have become experts in dream interpretation. Many books have been published on the nature of dreams, on their psychological or biological origins and on their significance, but this book takes as its premise that all we can allege about nocturnal visions is based on dreamtelling. Sorlin shows how dreams arouse our creativity and how, in turn, our creativity influences our dream accounts. Dreamtelling is aimed at all those who not only dream, but are curious about the experience, and wonder why they feel compelled to analyze and recount their night visions.

English summary: How did film become a universal spectacle that traverses all social milieus? How did it survive competition from other forms of media? This sociological study examines the complementarity between producers and spectators, and how cinema production has created a world of screens. French description: Comment le cinema, assemblage de vues animees destinees aux photographes amateurs, est-il devenu, au XXe siecle, un spectacle universel, produit a une echelle internationale et diffuse dans tous les milieux sociaux ? Comment a-t-il survecu a la concurrence d'autres formes de divertissement et comment est-il devenu, sur les reseaux sociaux, a la fois un modele et une inepuisable source d'images ? Rendre compte de son importance comme phenomene social est l'objectif de cet ouvrage qui explore les difficultes posees par une analyse sociologique des films, traite du rapport de complementarite institue entre les producteurs de films et les spectateurs, montre comment l'ensemble des productions cinematographiques a cree un monde de l'ecran, a la fois spatial, temporel et corporel, ebauche de la societe de l'ecran que constituent aujourd'hui la television, les ordinateurs et les telephones portables.
