The Empire Triumphant: Race, Religion and Rebellion in the Star Wars Films
Wetmore, Kevin J., Jr., Jr.
Focuses on the Star Wars saga. The first topic of this book is how the films use the language of colonialism to emphasize the idea of imperialism. Next the author looks at how Asian influences, including religious undertones from Taoism and Buddhism and the works of Kurosawa and other Asian filmmakers, provide a subtext for much of the action.
