摘要：Both Screening European Heritage: Creating and Consuming History on Film , edited by Paul Cooke & Rob Stone (London: Palgrave European Film and Media Studies, 2016), and Docudrama on European Television : A Selective Survey , edited by Tobias Ebbrecht-Hartmann and Derek Paget (London: Palgrave European Film and Media Studies, 2016) offer well-edited collections of specialised scholarly texts through which to gain a critical understanding of the status of heritage cinema and the television docudrama today. By opening up questions on forms of representation of a national cultural past within a globalised European market, they provide complementary perspectives, and further scope for thought on ‘heritage’, cultural memory, and ‘asserted veridical representation’. [1] While the academic disciplines in which their research is based may be considered as separate, in our ever-shifting social and geo-political terrains they share the topical criticality of key categories: ‘post-heritage’ and ‘docudrama’.
