ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the continuation of British and European contributions and their role in the development of Screened History. Film Studies developed the rise of a specialist sub-field of Film History began to see film scholars, rather than historians, begin to write institutional and industrial histories. As Film Studies developed the rise of a specialist sub-field of Film History began to see film scholars, rather than historians, begin to write institutional and industrial histories. While there certainly was continued resistance toward film within History, this resistance had not stopped a considerable body of scholarship from developing, as Smith's edited collection and bibliography revealed. The historian as filmmaker continued as an area of interest, and a new field of research on representations of the Holocaust and Nazism on film and television began to develop. Film had been considered a dream-like manifestation of an amorphous social subconscious, or the audience was a passive victim of political ideology.
