  • American Cinema of the 1930S SCREEN AMERICAN CULTURE / AMERICAN CINEMA DECADES
    American Cinema of the 1930s SCREEN AMERICAN CULTURE / AMERICAN CINEMA DECADES Each volume in the Screen Decades: American Culture/American Cinema series presents a group of original essays analyzing the impact of cultural issues on the cin- ema and the impact of the cinema in American society. Because every chapter explores a spectrum of particularly significant motion pictures and the broad range of historical events in one year, readers will gain a continuing sense of the decade as it came to be depicted on movie screens across the continent. The integration of his- torical and cultural events with the sprawling progression of American cinema illu- minates the pervasive themes and the essential movies that define an era. Our series represents one among many possible ways of confronting the past; we hope that these books will offer a better understanding of the connections between American culture and film history.

For about 115 years Norwegians have been part and parcel of this community and have made their substantial contributions to the upbuilding of the City and the land. These contributions to what may be called the Making of America have on the part of the Norwegian ele- ment embraced nearly every field of human endeavor, although it is quite natural that in the Port of New York and along the Atlantic seaboard as a whole the heaviest contribution to American life and development has been in shipping in all its various phases.
