Description de l'ouvrage :
Films and television programs about nuns are among the most successful and popular we watch, from old favorites like The Sound of Music to more recent hits like Call the Midwife and Mrs. Davis. This collection of new essays studies the fascinating and often controversial ways nuns have been portrayed in popular media, including as warriors, career women, and agents of supernatural horror. Specialist contributors in popular culture study more than a century of works from around the globe in genres as diverse as musicals, horror films, and even heavy metal music videos.
