Product Description

Throughout the silent-feature era American artists and intellectuals routinely described cinema as a force of global communion a universal language promoting mutual understanding and harmonious coexistence amongst disparate groups of people. This book examines the body of writing in which this understanding of cinema emerged and explores how it shaped particular silent films.
