Latin American History Goes to the Movies combines the study of the rich history of Latin America with the medium of feature film. Author Stewart Brewer provides students the opportunity to participate in a visual historical encounter of Latin America, from pre-Columbian times through the present. Each chapter addresses major themes and events in Latin American history, coupled with relevant filmographies that illustrate the time period or theme discussed. Through films such as Christopher Columbus, I The Worst of All, Frida, and Che (Part One), Brewer shows how history is retold through film, and what that retelling means for public memory.
From Salvador to Selena, and from the slave trades to countless revolutions, Latin American History Goes to the Movies sets the record straight between real history and Hollywood culture, and gives students a solid foundation in utilizing film as a vehicle for learning and understanding historical episodes.
Stewart Brewer is Professor of History at Metropolitan Community College in Omaha, Nebraska.
