The project is organised in five parts and covers the newspapers in chronological sequence. Part 1 provides full coverage for 1939; Part 2: 1940; Part 3: 1941; Part 4: 1942-1943; and finally, Part 5 covers 1944-1945. At last social historians and students of journalism can consult complete war-time runs of Britain’s popular newspapers in their libraries. Less august than the papers of record, it is these papers which reveal most about the impact of the war on the home front, the way in which people amused themselves in the face of adversity, and the way in which public morale was kept high through a mixture of propaganda and judicious reporting. Most importantly, it is through these papers that we can see how most ordinary people received news of the war. For, with a combined circulation of over 23 million by 1948, and a secondary readership far in excess of these figures, the News of the World, The People, the Daily Express, The Daily Mirror, and the Sunday Express reached into the homes of the majority of the British public and played a critical role in shaping public perceptions of the war.

    Good Work, Little Soldier: Text and Pretext

    First published in Journal of European Studies 34:1-2 (2004), pp.34-43 Good Work, Little Soldier: text and pretext Adaptation, the most explicit kind of intertextual relation implicating film, is not really intertextual at all, if intertextuality is understood to be a systematic, ongoing and infinite ramification of meanings that command our critical pause. But if we apply a more restricted model from literary theory, centred on a ‘centring text which retains its position of leadership in meaning’,1 adaptation can be read through a variation of this model: pretextuality. Film-on-book relations are generally pretextual: the adapted text as point of departure, as party in a dialogue, as measure of a difference, as mirror. Beau travail has two pretexts, a book and a film: Melville’s Billy Budd, Sailor (1891) and Godard’s Le petit soldat (1960). The first is the kind of pretext familiar from cinematic adaptations of literary works, though it is made strange by reference to an intermediate operatic adaptation (Britten’s Billy Budd). The second is of a quite unfamiliar kind, a variant of cinematic pretextuality that may be peculiar to Beau travail. Most comparable instances of character and actor reappearing in a different director’s film would be from sequels or episodes in series,2 but though Michel Subor plays Bruno Forestier in both films, Beau travail is not, in narrative terms, a sequel to Le petit soldat. A more exact idea of the film-on-film relations that bind the two films is the object of this article. ‘Pretext and intertext’ is not a categorical distinction: pretextuality is just over- determined intertextuality.

This transcript is not verbatim. SIDE 1 TAPE 1 RF: When and where were you born? RWB: London in 1916 in Hornsey. RF: Did your family have any connection with the business you ultimately entered? RWB: None whatsoever, no history of it in the family. RF: Was it an ambition on your part or was it an accidental entry eventually into films? How did you come into the business? RWB: I was fairly lucky in that I knew exactly what I wanted to do or at least I thought I did. At the age of something like fourteen I’d had rather a chequered upbringing in an educa- tional sense and lived in a lot of different places. I had been taken to see silent movies when I was a child It was obviously premature because usually I was carried out in scream- ing hysterics. There was one famous one called The Chess Player which was very dramatic and German and all that. I had no feeling for films. I had seen one or two Charlie Chaplin films which people showed at children's parties in those days on a 16mm projector.

Flanagan 2015 iii THE BRITISH WAR FILM, 1939-1980: CULTURE, HISTORY, AND GENRE Kevin M. Flanagan, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2015 This dissertation argues that discussions of war representation that privilege the nationalistic, heroic, and redemptively sacrificial strand of storytelling that dominate popular memory in Britain ignore a whole counter-history of movies that view war as an occasion to critique through devices like humor, irony, and existential alienation. Instead of selling audiences on what Graham Dawson has called “the pleasure culture of war” (a nationally self-serving mode of talking about and profiting from war memory), many texts about war are motivated by other intellectual and ideological factors. Each chapter includes historical context and periodizing arguments about different moments in British cultural history, explores genre trends, and ends with a comparative analysis of representative examples.

    Notes and References CHAPTER 1 To provide an intellectual and cultural framework for examining Carol Reed's films, a history of the British cinema from its origins through to the Second World War is offered in this chapter. Although Reed began directing in 1935, 1939 seemed a tidier, more logical cut-off point for the survey. All the information in the chapter is synthesized from several excellent works on the subject: Roy Armes's A Critical History of the British Cinema, Ernest Betts' The Film Business, Ivan Butler's Cinema in Britain, Denis Gifford's British Film Catalogue, Rachel Low's History of the British Film, and George Perry's The Great British Picture Show.
