Very often, the image presented is related to existent semiotics, and the respective sign systems determine the image of heroic actions and violence on the screen. The present volume provides a deeper insight into the forces at play when war films are presented on the big screen and intends to show why and how violent conflicts often have an afterlife as visual media as well.<ul> <li><a href ='https://mediarep.org/bitstream/handle/doc/19096/Jacob_2022_War-in-Film_.pdf#page=9'>Frank Jacob: <i>Introduction: The Visual Semiotics of War</i></a></li> <li><a href ='https://mediarep.org/bitstream/handle/doc/19096/Jacob_2022_War-in-Film_.pdf#page=17'>Bruno Surace: <i>The Cinematographic Face of Garibaldi.
