By analyzing over 100 movies and tv shows, the paper explores how postwar audiovisual culture has represented the spaces of the school. The analysis returns a taxonomy with four main models: the frontier (the school as a place to be redeemed from chaos), the fortress (the school as a solid and impregnable repository of meaning) and the ruins (the school as an irredimable space), and the space of liberation (The school as a space to be destructured by goodwilled teachers and students).

Abstract
By analyzing over 100 movies and tv shows, the paper explores how postwar audiovisual culture has represented the spaces of the school. The analysis returns a taxonomy with four main models: the frontier (the school as a place to be redeemed from chaos), the fortress (the school as a solid and impregnable repository of meaning) and the ruins (the school as an irredimable space), and the space of liberation (The school as a space to be destructured by goodwilled teachers and students).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
