Through a combination of content analysis, historical understanding and archival research, this book sheds new light on a hitherto unexplored area of animation, suggesting the ways in which Disney and Warner Brothers animation engaged with historical, social, economic and political changes in this era. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book also traces the development of animation into a medium fit for propaganda in 1941 and the changes in characters, tone, music and narrative that took place to facilitate this transition. Animation transformed in this era from a medium of entertainment, to a socio-political commentator before finally undertaking government sponsored propaganda during the Second World War.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracey Louise Mollet\u003c\/b\u003e is a Lecturer in Media and Communication at the University of Leeds, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 216\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 18, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45846275031237,"sku":"9781501351969","price":86.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/cjZvaXpFRVFhNXQ5MDQ5MzA5ellhZz09.webp?v=1771401573","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/cartoons-in-hard-times-the-animated-shorts-of-disney-and-warner-brothers-in-depression-and-war-1932-1945-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
