Rezensionen

"Using post-Jungian methodology, Donatella Spinelli Coleman shows how, under the intense pressure of the European war and its aftermath, these films embody fluctuating currents emerging from the Italian cultural and transpersonal unconscious of that epoch. She has written a book of great value for students of Film, the History of Culture and the application of Jungian Theory." - John Izod, Professor of Screen Analysis, Film, Media & Journalism, University of Stirling.
