The Apotheosis of Discontent: Representations of the Counterculture in 1960's Film and Television

Rothstein, Jeffrey

Abstract Details

1999, Master of Arts in History, Youngstown State University, Department of Humanities.
Cinema, during the 1960's indirectly reflected the social and political conflagrations of the era through changes in production and style. These changes shadowed a larger transformation in sensibility that was most visible in the development of a youth subculture that questioned the hegemony of a pre-existing set of cultural preconceptions, creating a canon of its own. While the emergence of counterculture, did not alter American politics, it exerted aan indirect effect over all of the arts, including Cinema, where new ideas about effacing boundaries between audiences and performers, directors and critics and old notions regarding high and low culture came together to form a new cinema.
