It offers very close readings of the film texts, of the roles Schwarzenegger performs, and the rhetorical strategies he adopts outside his film performances to show that in spite of attempts to occupy the position of an emblematic member of the U.S. national body Schwarzenegger remains irrevocably outside as an accented migrant body continuously accumulating markers of belonging that by their very necessity attest to their insufficiency. The book’s central project is to trace back, from the uses to which a migrant star such as Schwarzenegger is put on the screen, the construction of a sense or idea of a U.S. national community through the cinema. Given that the appeal to the American myth of an immigrant nation that promises to erase difference is fundamental to the Schwarzenegger star persona, the central aim of this book isto explore the uses of his stardom as an embodiment of the promise of America and its contradictions and exclusions.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2022 | | 关键词 | Celebrity Studies; American Film and TV; Arnold Schwarzenegger; Foreign stars; Hollywood | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-06951-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-06953-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-06951-2 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
