Sergei M. Eisenstein
Author: Naum Kleiman
Publisher: Amsterdam University Press
ISBN: 9048517117
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : nl
Pages : 546
Book Description
Sovjetregisseur en filmtheoreticus Sergei M. Eisenstein werkte in 1946 en 1947 een jaar voor zijn dood aan een algemene geschiedenis van de cinema. De manier waarop hij de geschiedschrijving van van de cinema benadert, is tegelijk fascinerend in haar ambitie en uiterst modern in haar methode. Eisenstein presenteert hier een virtuele wereldkaart van alle aan de bioscoop gerelateerde media, en ontwikkelt op hetzelfde moment een methode voor het schrijven van een geschiedenis die net als de cinema is gebaseerd op montage. De teksten van Eisenstein worden begeleid door een reeks kritische essays, geschreven door enkele van 's werelds meest gekwalificeerde Eisensteinkenners.

Hobbledehoy
Author: Ed Alcock
Publisher:
ISBN: 9782909953304
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 99
Book Description
"Mon père m’appelait souvent "hobbledehoy". Il me lançait, moitié en parlant moitié en chantant : "he was neither man, nor boy ; he was but a hobbledehoy". Ma famille emploie ce mot, tiré du vieil anglais, depuis des générations. Il désigne cette période gauche, ingrate entre l’enfance et l’âge adulte. Il y a quelque chose dans la manière dont mon fils se tient, quelque chose dans la mélancolie de son regard qui évoquent, pour moi, un garçon plus âgé, déjà nostalgique de son enfance. J’avoue projeter beaucoup de ma propre enfance sur la sienne. Alors qui est ce Hobbledehoy : lui, moi, ou nous deux?". Emmanuel Carrère. "S’ils avaient été moches, renfrognés, si leur vie m’avait paru triste ou leurs sourires forcés, j’aurais vite refermé le carton, pensé que non, vraiment, je n’avais pas le droit de surprendre leur intimité". Un portrait intime autant qu’un regard intense sur la relation mère-fils. Ed Alcock et Emmanuel Carrère se retrouvent dans les mêmes traces, celles de la puissance et la fragilité de la famille et du rapport amoureux. Le regard tendre d’un grand portraitiste de presse sur son fils à la frontière de l’enfance et de l’adolescence. Un récit inédit d’Emmanuel Carrère, concentré du talent narratif de l’écrivain.

The Birth of the American Horror Film
Author: Gary Don Rhodes
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781474430869
Category : Horror films
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Explains how the American horror movie came into existence. Although early cinema has long been a key area of research in film studies, the origin and development of the horror film has been a neglected subject for what is arguably one of the world's most popular film genres. Using thousands of primary sources and long-unseen illustrations, 'The Birth of the American Horror Film' examines a history that begins in colonial Salem, taking an interdisciplinary approach to explore the influence of horror-themed literature, theatre and visual culture in America, and how that context established an amorphous structural foundation for films produced between 1895 and 1915. Exhaustively researched, bridging scholarship on Horror Studies and Early Cinema, 'The Birth of the American Horror Film' is the first major study dedicated to this vital but often overlooked subject. Suitable for use on courses focusing on Film History, Genre and Horror.

Jean Epstein
Author: Sarah Keller
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Electronic books
Languages : en
Pages : 439
Book Description
Filmmaker and theoretician Jean Epstein profoundly influenced film practice, criticism and reception in France during the 1920s and well beyond. His work not only forms the crux of the debates of his time, but also remains key to understanding later developments in film practice and theory. Epstein's film criticism is among the most wide-ranging, provocative and poetic writing about cinema and his often breathtaking films offer insights into cinema and the experience of modernity. This collection - the first comprehensive study in English of Epstein's far-reaching influence - arrives as several of the concerns most central to Epstein's work are being reexamined, including theories of perception, realism, and the relationship between cinema and other arts. The volume also includes new translations from every major theoretical work Epstein published, presenting the widest possible historical and contextual range of Epstein's work, from his beginnings as a biology student and literary critic to his late film projects and posthumously published writings.

The Devotion and Promotion of Stigmatics in Europe, C. 1800-1950
Author: Tine Van Osselaer
Publisher: Numen Book
ISBN: 9789004439191
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 470
Book Description
"In the nineteenth century a new type of mystic emerged in Catholic Europe. While cases of stigmatisation had been reported since the thirteenth century, this era witnessed the development of the 'stigmatic': young women who attracted widespread interest thanks to the appearance of physical stigmata. To understand the popularity of these stigmatics we need to regard them as the 'saints' and religious 'celebrities' of their time. With their 'miraculous' bodies, they fit contemporary popular ideas (if not necessarily those of the Church) of what sanctity was. As knowledge about them spread via modern media and their fame became marketable, they developed into religious 'celebrities'"--
