Scholarship (True Historical Analysis) And Contemporary Entertainment (Popular Culture): Erroneousness And Embellishment
[ send me this essay ]
24 pages in length. The predominance of historical revisionism in today's filmmaking illustrates the reason why contemporary society buys into certain inaccuracies as truth. Recognizing the power Hollywood has for skewing reality is the key to understanding the problem behind how societies such as the Greeks and Romans are perceived from a perspective of adulterated depiction. Indeed, such distinctions have been overlooked to the point of being immersed within the very infrastructure of what contemporary society believes to be true based solely upon Hollywood's version of historical facts. Mighty Aphrodite and Gladiator illustrate two of myriad accounts whereby the past is based more upon reading between the lines than they are upon fact. Historical accuracy - the goal of which is "to achieve an effective blend of historical accuracy and compelling drama" (Crowdus 2005, 12) - is a component of popular culture whereby individual perception commands the reins. Bibliography lists 15 sources.
