✦ Synopsis

A galaxy of war and art -- The Republic. The last era of peace ; A galaxy divided -- The Clone Wars. Like fire across the galaxy -- Building the Empire. A thousand years of peace -- Rise of the rebellion. The new light of freedom -- The next great war. An order resurgent -- Artists of the galaxy.;"Propaganda art has been synonymous with life in the galaxy far, far away. Whether it's a poster of a Star Destroyer hovering over a planet in a display of Imperial domination; a symbol painted on a wall to deliver a message of hope on behalf of the Rebellion; or a mural depicting a line of stormtroopers to promote unity within the First Order, this type of art, as an instrument of persuasive fear mongering and impassioned idealism, captures the ever-changing tides of politics and public sentiment across the galaxy. Star Wars Propaganda is an in-world history that threads together the stories behind these images--why they were created, how they were indicative of the times, who were the artists behind them--and delivers a glimpse into the anger, passion, and corruption that fuel the galaxy's greatest wars"--Container.
