  • The Polish cinematographer Boleslaw Matuszewski who worked with the famous film pioneers, the Lumiere brothers during the 1890s published a little booklet Une nouvelle source de l’histoire (The New Source of History) in the year 1898. In this text, he suggested that film could offer not only a source for historical research but a suitable medium for historical narration as well.
