Book Description
This book is a critical history of Marathi cinema, from its formative years in the 1920s till the end of 1990s. It is the first work to explore the industrial and aesthetic dynamics of Marathi cinema, and elaborate on the idea of region as performance using the framework of critical socio-spatial analysis. Against the dominance of Hindi cinema, the Marathi film industry, as a regional film practice in India, has developed within a cultural and spatial liminality. This historical situation of the Marathi film industry is formulated here as the shaping and dispersal of a vernacular cultural space; and is traced over a period of seven decades, across genres like the saint-film, social melodramas, and the tamasha film, as well as in urban and mofussil sites of film circulation. The book aims to be a useful resource for students, researchers, and general readers, while attending to a lack of scholarly inquiries on this important regional film culture.

Pages : 150
Book Description
Los Carmelitas Descalzos no pudieron estudiar grados académicos hasta el Concilio Vaticano II (1962-1965), circunstancia que impidió su ejercicio como profesores universitarios, al contrario que el resto de integrantes de las demás Órdenes Mendicantes. No obstante, su labor docente fue variada y próspera como se comprueba y se detalla a lo largo de los diversos capítulos del libro, aunque siempre bajo el carisma de una finalidad concreta: que nacieran y se consolidaran vocaciones religiosas. Esta monografía ofrece un recorrido completo sobre la historia de los Colegios Carmelitanos desde la fundación de la Orden en el siglo XVI hasta la actualidad. Es el resultado de un trabajo de investigación serio y riguroso a partir de fuentes documentales y bibliográficas inéditas o de difícil acceso, cuyo objetivo es dar a conocer la acción pedagógica desarrollada por la Orden del Carmen Descalzo. Un libro de referencia para profundizar en la Historia de la Educación en España y en la Historia de la Iglesia en los últimos cinco siglos. ÓscarIgnacio Aparicio Ahedo (Burgos, 1970) es Doctor en Humanidades por la Universidad Rey Juan Carlos (2020). Asimismo, es Licenciado en Ciencias Eclesiásticas (1995), en Historia (2003), y en Teología, Historia de la Iglesia (2009). Pertenece a la Orden del Carmen Descalzo. En la actualidad es director del Archivo Silveriano de Burgos, tras haberlo sido del Archivo General de Roma (2009-2015). También es Profesor en la Facultad de Teología del Norte de España (sede Burgos).

Indian Horror Cinema
Author: Mithuraaj Dhusiya
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1351386484
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
This book studies the hitherto overlooked genre of horror cinema in India. It uncovers some unique and diverse themes that these films deal with, including the fear of the unknown, the supernatural, occult practices, communication with spirits of the deceased, ghosts, reincarnation, figures of vampires, zombies, witches and transmutations of human beings into non-human forms such as werewolves. It focusses on the construction of feminine and masculine subjectivities in select horror films across seven major languages – Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Bangla, Marathi and Malayalam. The author shows that the alienation of the body and bodily functions through the medium of the horror film serves to deconstruct stereotypes of caste, class, gender and anthropocentrism. Some riveting insights emerge thus, such as the masculinist undertow of the possession narrative and how complex structures of resistance accompany the anxieties of culture via the dread of laughter. This original account of Indian cinematic history is accessible yet strongly analytical and includes an exhaustive filmography. The book will interest scholars and researchers in film studies, media and cultural studies, art, popular culture and performance, literature, gender, sociology, South Asian studies, practitioners, filmmakers as well as cinephiles.

Book Description
A new collection in the Wiley Blackwell Companions to National Cinemas series, featuring the cinemas of India In A Companion to Indian Cinema, film scholars Neepa Majumdar and Ranjani Mazumdar along with 25 established and emerging scholars, deliver new research on contemporary and historical questions on Indian cinema. The collection considers Indian cinema's widespread presence both within and outside the country, and pays particular attention to regional cinemas such as Bhojpuri, Bengali, Malayalam, Manipuri, and Marathi. The volume also reflects on the changing dimensions of technology, aesthetics, and the archival impulse of film. The editors have included scholarship that discusses a range of films and film experiences that include commercial cinema, art cinema, and non-fiction film. Even as scholarship on earlier decades of Indian cinema is challenged by the absence of documentation and films, the innovative archival and field work in this Companion extends from cinema in early twentieth century India to a historicized engagement with new technologies and contemporary cinematic practices. There is a focus on production cultures and circulation, material cultures, media aesthetics, censorship, stardom, non-fiction practices, new technologies, and the transnational networks relevant to Indian cinema. Suitable for undergraduate and graduate students of film and media studies, South Asian studies, and history, A Companion to Indian Cinema is also an important new resource for scholars with an interest in the context and theoretical framework for the study of India's moving image cultures.

Routledge Handbook of Indian Cinemas

Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
India is the largest film producing country in the world and its output has a global reach. After years of marginalisation by academics in the Western world, Indian cinemas have moved from the periphery to the centre of the world cinema in a comparatively short space of time. Bringing together contributions from leading scholars in the field, this Handbook looks at the complex reasons for this remarkable journey. Combining a historical and thematic approach, the Handbook discusses how Indian cinemas need to be understood in their historical unfolding as well as their complex relationships to social, economic, cultural, political, ideological, aesthetic, technical and institutional discourses. The thematic section provides an up-to-date critical narrative on diverse topics such as audience, censorship, film distribution, film industry, diaspora, sexuality, film music and nationalism. The Handbook provides a comprehensive and cutting edge survey of Indian cinemas, discussing Popular, Parallel/New Wave and Regional cinemas as well as the spectacular rise of Bollywood. It is an invaluable resource for students and academics of South Asian Studies, Film Studies and Cultural Studies.

Book Description
Why does Indian Cinema look different, sound different and is so lengthy? Why are the dialogues so long winding? Why are our costumes so gaudy and garish? Why do we have so many songs in our films? Why do our actors burst into songs and dances for no reason? Are we a society that is exactly like our Cinema? Why are films directed by Saytyajit Ray great and not so great by some other Directors. Have you ever called your spouse ‘Sajni or Sajna’ or ‘Saiyan’ or ‘Balam’ ? Perhaps no, then why does our Cinema use these words? Why does Hindi language Cinema use words or the language that no one uses in real life? Why is it that a Cinema that is almost part of life for millions of Indians and now even foreigners has been dubbed mindless and silly? How many language Cinemas does Indian Cinema comprise of ? Do people who dismiss Indian Cinema as ‘Bollywood’ even understand that 30% of our feature films at least belong to the globally termed ‘art-house cinema class’. Find all answers in the book.

Publisher: Shineeks Publishers
ISBN: 1632789345
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Researching and obtaining new information is a very crucial part of a wandering mind. Neil Armstrong very aptly said, “Researching is the process to create new knowledge.” It helps an individual in broadening their intellect base which in turn makes them a well-adjusted and informed member of society. This compilation titled ‘UgRIMM-2021’ is an effort by the department of Mass Media under the guidance of our dear Principal Dr.HemlataBagla to instill research value at an undergraduate level. It is a one-of-a-kind Research initiative that took place with the help of multiple online training sessions by in-house as well as external faculty. One hundred and thirty research papers were penned down independently by our second-year undergraduate students of the BAMMC course. Our main objective with UgRIMM was to instill a sense of curiosity and comfort surrounding the word ‘research’ instead of the telltale uncertainty students feel when the word is brought up. Our approach towards research coupled with frequent interactive sessions with experts in the field of research aimed to make our students better at the prospects of researching and writing research papers.
