- W2506988360 abstract "Hollywood literature is an odd mash-up of historical and cultural forces. As Christopher Ames, David Fine, and others have noted, it is a regional literature of a sort, but the body of literature that has given Hollywood and Los Angeles its literary identity is for the most part the work of outsiders, if not necessarily tourists then most definitely exiles, expats, and newcomers.1 The feeling of displacement—often represented in a through-the-looking-glass type of absurdity—revealed in most British writing about Hollywood differs qualitatively from the way other places are written about in either regional literature or travel literature. If regional literature generally examines a region’s present against its past and its inhabitants against others, and travel literature explores a place in contrast to ideas of home, the literature of Los Angeles sets the city’s all-consuming present in relation to the past from another place. More important, as Evelyn Waugh pointed out, Hollywood’s present, relentlessly superficial and spectacular in its values, presages the future of all Western culture. Hollywood’s lack of history, reinforced aesthetically and culturally through the medium of film, was seen to be turning all cultural values into products, repackaging history, experience, and identity and selling them to a global movie-watching audience." @default.
