Margaret C. Flinn
Margaret C. Flinn is associate professor of French and Film Studies at The Ohio State University. She is the author of The Social Architecture of French Cinema, 1929-1939 (Liverpool University Press, 2014), as well as articles on various periods of French and francophone cinema, new media art, and comics, in journals such as SubStance, Yale French Studies, Esprit Créateur, the International Journal of Francophone Studies, and European Comic Art. She is currently working on two book projects: one is on director Olivier Assayas, for the University of Illinois Press; the other, New Limits of the Real: Arts of the Moving Image and the Politics of the Contemporary Everyday, addresses the rising value of documentary film/media and of commodified heritage or history as indices of national cinemas in transition, under pressure from the political fact of the European Union, and anxieties about globalization and technological change.
