The Language of Film

Lighting for Cinematography

Robert Edgar, John Marland & Steven Rawle

A Practical Guide to the Art and Craft of Lighting for the Moving Image

"Without question, this is a book that offers a clear and precise approach to learning a range of essential cinematic concepts and terms... From my perspective, it accomplishes what very few books of this type are successful with . . . it presents a sufficient amount of information to facilitate further discussion and allows students to actually absorb the key points so that readings are informative and engaging rather than overwhelmingly dense...The form of the book is beautiful. I appreciate the fact that by limiting the range of content, the book makes what is available fun and interesting." Richard Litvin, Undergraduate Film & TV, Tisch School of the Arts, New York University, US With seven in-depth case studies and numerous practical exercises, The Language of Film is an engaging introduction to the structures and conventions that allow film to communicate meaning to a global audience.

This book explores topics such as semiotics, narrative, intertextuality, ideology and the aesthetics of film in a clear and straightforward style, enabling students to apply these ideas and techniques to their own analysis or filmmaking. In the second edition, a new chapter examines how sound contributes to narrative and space to tell stories and shape the realist (and often non-realist) effect of cinema.

Robert Edgar is a Senior Lecturer in Film and Creative Writing at York St John University. John Marland is Senior Lecturer in Film and Literature at York St John University, UK. Steven Rawle is a Senior Lecturer in Film Studies at York St. John University, UK.

David Landau "A master class in cinematography!

Harlan Bosmajian, Assistant Professor of Cinematography, Emerson College, USA and Local 600 Director of Photography

FILM PRODUCTION

FILM PRODUCTION

Lighting for Cinematography, the first volume in the new CineTech Guides to the Film Crafts series, is the indispensable guide for film and video lighting.

Written by veteran gaffer and cinematographer David Landau, the book helps the reader create lighting that supports the emotional moment of the scene, contributes to the atmosphere of the story and can augment an artistic style.

Structured to mimic a 14-week semester, the chapters cover specific genres and lighting conditions and include key advice from the field. The glossary, full colour examples and companion website add much-needed tools for students to practice both in class and on their own.

David Landau has over thirty years of professional lighting experience working on feature films, TV shows, sit-coms, game shows, commercials, documentaries, industrial films, music videos and direct-to-consumer DVDs. Landau teaches lighting and cinematography at Fairleigh Dickinson University, US, where he also created the Cinematography track of study, but continues to work in the lighting industry, shooting low budget features and corporate videos, designing lights for theatre and working as one of the gaffers on the TV series Project Runway. A fivetime Telly Award winner for lighting and cinematography, Landau is a member of IATSE Local 52, the University Film & Video Association and Media Communications Association International.

Beyond the Bottom Line The Producer in Film and Television Studies Edited by Andrew Spicer, McKenna & Christopher Meir "An invaluable book, both to students and to those wishing to learn more about the film and media industries. Its spread is broad, making comparisons between different countries, practices and genres, and yet its intellectual focus is precise and well-conceived.

Not to be missed." Sue Harper, Emeritus Professor of Film History, University of Portsmouth, UK This is the first collection of original critical essays devoted to exploring the misunderstood, neglected, and frequently caricatured role played by the film producer. The detailed essays in this collection explore a broad, diverse range of producers working in different historical, geographical, and industrial contexts. Overall, this groundbreaking collection challenges several of the conventional orthodoxies of film studies, providing a new approach that will become required reading for scholars and students.

Andrew Spicer is Professor of Cultural Production at the University of the West of England, UK. A.T. McKenna teaches Media and International Communications at the University of Nottingham in Ningbo, China.

Merchants of Menace

Movie Stunts & Special Effects

The Business of Horror Cinema

A Comprehensive Guide to Planning and Execution

Edited by Richard Nowell "Unearthing the industrial logics of the horror genre, Merchants of Menace provides lively case studies that expose the tactics of their production as well as unusual quirks in the process. These studies will reanimate and refashion our histories of the genre and the standard maxims about horror-film fabrication, cultural tastes, the films' heroines and heroes, and the audiences for these movies. An outstanding collection!" Janet Staiger, Professor Emeritus of Communication, University of Texas at Austin, USA Merchants of Menace is a groundbreaking collection on the business of horror cinema, including early zombie pictures, Civil Rights-Era marketing, Hollywood's literary adaptations, "torture-porn" Auteurs, and 21st-century remakes. The essays collected here, from an impressive array of contributors in film studies, media history, and horror cinema, explore the relationships between economics and film genre.

Richard Nowell teaches American Cinema at the American Studies Department of Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. He is the author of Blood Money: A History of the First Teen Slasher Film Cycle (2011), he has served as a guest editor of the journal Iluminace, and he has published articles in several journals including the New Review of Film & Television Studies, Post Script, the Journal of Film and Video, InMedia, and Cinema Journal.

Andrew Lane "Movie Stunts & Special Effects: A Comprehensive Guide to Planning and Execution is an excellent addition to the library of any filmmaker, especially the novice, who is all too often unaware of the responsibility, care, time and preparation required to stage a successful stunt or special effect. This book examines the key visual tricks that make real the fantastic elements of film and demonstrates clearly how to eliminate the ‘crossed-fingers’ approach to stunts and effects." David K. Irving, Director, Writer, and Associate Professor of Film and Television, New York University, USA To portray the death-defying action images viewers love, filmmakers have developed special skills (“movie magic”) that allow audiences to take part in the primal hopes and fears we all possess. Movie Stunts & Special Effects helps hone these crafts by empowering filmmakers to communicate effectively with stunts and effects practitioners. Director/Producer Andrew Lane surveys fights, the use of weapons, cars and vehicles, falls, pyrotechnics, atmospheric effects, bullet hits, wounds and blood, among many other categories.

Andrew Lane is Assistant Professor of Directing at Dodge College of Film and Media Arts at Chapman University, USA. He has written or co-written over twenty films, re-written numerous others, produced over twenty features, and directed seven.

The Pleasures of Structure Learning Screenwriting Through Case Studies Julian Hoxter "Julian Hoxter is a great teacher and an always entertaining writer. His deep knowledge of the history and practice of American screenwriting makes his latest book another 'must read.' In The Pleasures of Structure he embeds simple, helpful story concepts into a wide range of detailed and up-to-date case study examples, making them relevant for aspiring writers who want to work in every aspect of cinema from the mainstream and genre, to the wilder worlds of indie and microbudget screenwriting. The excellent critical glossary of screenwriting terms at the end also makes this book truly unique—it is worth the purchase price alone." Michael Grais, Filmmaker and Acclaimed Screenwriter of Poltergeist The Pleasures of Structure starts from the premise that the ability to develop a well understood and articulated story structure is the most important skill a screenwriter can develop. Hoxter tests the simple and flexible "W" model of screenplay structure developed in the prequel Write What You Don't Know, tracing it out against a range of examples chosen specifically to explore the flexibility of that model and of movie storytelling in general. Writers and students often worry that they are asked to work "to formula," but this book will test that formula to breaking point.

Julian Hoxter is the Screenwriting Coordinator and Assistant Professor of Screenwriting in the Cinema Department of San Francisco State University, USA. He is an award winning educator and filmmaker.

Magical Musical Tour

Marilyn

Rock and Pop in Film Soundtracks

The Passion and the Paradox

Kevin J. Donnelly

Lois Banner

Magical Musical Tour is the first sustained and focused survey to engage the intersection of the film and popular music industries on both an aesthetic and industrial level. Using both wide-ranging historical review and concentrated, detailed case studies, K.J. Donnelly explores the history of the intimate bond between film and music, from the upheaval that rock'n'roll caused in the mid-1950s to the more technical aspects regarding "tracking" and "scoring." The text will include an historical timeline and be accompanied by a detailed website.

Few biographies of the much-examined star recognize— much less attempt to reconcile—the multiple aspects of her complex personality. She was a powerful star and a childlike waif; a party girl with a deeply spiritual side; a superb friend and narcissist; a dumb blonde and an intellectual. Lois Banner, a founder in the field of women's history, gained access to previously silent sources and unseen material, and analyzes more familiar facts through a fresh lens. Hers is a meticulous and nuanced portrait of an icon of film.

K.J.Donnelly is a Reader in Film at the University of Southampton, UK. He is the author of Occult Aesthetics: Synchronization in Sound Film (2013), British Film Music and Film Musicals (2007), The Spectre of Sound (2005) and Pop Music in British Cinema (2001); and editor of Film Music: Critical Approaches (2001) and co-editor (with Phil Hayward) of Music in Science Fiction Television: Tuning to the Future (2012).

Lois Banner is a founder of the field of women’s history and cofounder of the Berkshire Conference of Women Historians, the major academic event in the field. She was the first woman president of the American Studies Association, and in 2005 she won the ASA’s Bode-Pearson Prize for Outstanding Contributions to American Studies. She is the author of ten books, including her acclaimed American Beauty and most recently MM—Personal, which reproduces and discusses items from Marilyn Monroe’s personal archive. Banner is a professor of history and gender studies at USC and lives in Southern California.

The Searchers The Making of an American Legend Glenn Frankel "Impeccably researched…[Frankel’s] book is a fascinating journey from fiction to fact, from glorified legend to brutal event…By connecting The Searchers to the facts of its distant origins, Frankel demonstrates how history and storytelling can become a unified force in national mythmaking" Washington Post In 1836 in Texas, a young Cynthia Ann Parker was kidnapped by Comanches.

She married a warrior and mothered a future chief. But twenty-four years after capture, she was reclaimed by the white world. Her story became legend—and, eventually, a source for John Ford’s film The Searchers, starring John Wayne. Pulitzer Prize winner Frankel moves between 1950s Hollywood and the 19th-century frontier— the making of the film and the making of America. His book explores how Ford’s film both upholds and undermines American myth, baring ambiguities surrounding race, sexuality, and violence in the settling of the West.

Glenn Frankel worked for nearly thirty years for the Washington Post, as a reporter, a foreign correspondent, and editor of the Washington Post Magazine.

As Jerusalem bureau chief, he won the 1989 Pulitzer Prize for "sensitive and balanced reporting from Israel and the Middle East." His first book, Beyond the Promised Land: Jews and Arabs on the Hard Road to a New Israel won the National Jewish Book Award. His second, Rivonia's Children: Three Families and the Cost of Conscience in White South Africa was a finalist for South Africa's prestigious Alan Paton Award. Frankel has been an Alicia Patterson Journalism Fellow and a Hearst Visiting Professional in the Department of Communication at Stanford. He is currently the Director of the School of Journalism at the University of Texas at Austin.

Cinematic Terror

After the Fact

A Global History of Terrorism on Film

The Holocaust in Twenty-First Century Documentary Film

Tony Shaw "In this path-breaking book Tony Shaw opens the history of the representation of terrorism in global feature film. Shaw moves deftly across time, geographical space and genre with a series of well-chosen and flawlessly executed case studies...

Seasoned scholars, students of film and security issues and general readers alike will find much to compel attention and provoke further thought in this important book." Nicholas J. Cull, Professor of Public Diplomacy, Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism, University of Southern California, USA Cinematic Terror is the first history of cinema's depiction of terrorism from the early 1900s to the present day. Shaw looks beyond Hollywood to pinpoint important trends in the ways that film industries in Europe, North and South America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East have framed terrorism throughout the decades. Drawing on a vast array of studio archives, government documentation, personal interviews, and box office records, Shaw examines the mechanics of cinematic terrorism and challenges assumptions about the links between political violence and propaganda.

Tony Shaw is Professor of Contemporary History at the University of Hertfordshire, UK. He is an internationally-recognized expert in the fields of history, film and propaganda.

Brad Prager “Brilliantly iconoclastic. This is a welcomed, nuanced discussion of post-millennial Holocaust documentaries— fully appreciating the specificity of cinematic narration.” Aaron Kerner, Associate Professor of Cinema, San Francisco State University, USA Exploring the rapidly changing terrain of 21st century documentary filmmaking, After the Fact traces the ways in which contemporary filmmakers have withdrawn from, reconsidered, or newly envisioned such canonical Holocaust documentaries as Shoah and Night and Fog. Innovative styles have emerged, including groundbreaking techniques of incorporating archival footage, survivor testimony, and reenactment. Revealing wider implications for the fields of Film Studies, Jewish Studies, and Visual Studies, Brad Prager closely analyzes ten contemporary and internationally produced Holocaust documentaries.

Brad Prager is Associate Professor of German and a member of the Program in Film Studies at the University of Missouri. He is the author of The Cinema of Werner Herzog: Aesthetic Ecstasy and Truth (2007) and Aesthetic Vision and German Romanticism: Writing Images (2007). He is also the coeditor of a volume on Visual Studies and the Holocaust entitled Visualizing the Holocaust: Documents, Aesthetics, Memory (2008), as well as of a recent volume on contemporary German cinema, and is the editor of A Companion to Werner Herzog (2012).

Cinematic Ghosts Haunting and Spectrality from Silent Cinema to the Digital Era Edited by Murray Leeder Cinematic Ghosts is the first collection to explore cinema’s peculiar relationship with the haunted and the ghostly. Exploring the many permutations of the movies’ phantoms, fourteen original essays revisit classic ghost films, romantic films, comedies, and the art film, as well as introducing a number of lesser-known films from around the world.

Cinematic Ghosts traces the archetype of the cinematic ghost from the silent era until today, offering analyses from a range of historical, aesthetic and theoretical dimensions.

Murray Leeder is an Instructor of Film at the University of Manitoba, Canada. He is the author of Halloween (2013), as well as more than a dozen articles in such journals as Horror Studies, the Journal of Popular Film and Television, the Journal of Popular Culture, Clues: A Journal of Detection and the Canadian Journal of Film Studies, including many on ghost films.

Afterlives: Allegories of Film and Mortality in Early Weimar Germany

Deleuze, Japanese Cinema, and the Atom Bomb

Steve Choe

David Deamer

The Spectre of Impossibility

"Steve Choe's book makes an important and original contribution to the study of Weimar film in its cultural and intellectual historical contexts. He arranges revealing and stimulating critical encounters between ideas of life and death circulating at the time and a series of films, both canonical and less familiar." Andrew J. Webber, Professor of Modern German and Comparative Culture, University of Cambridge, UK, and Fellow of Churchill College, UK Afterlives analyses films and philosophical texts of the the early Weimar period in order to reflect on the time-based ontology of the film medium.

Combining close readings of individual films with detailed interpretations of philosophical texts produced in Germany immediately following the Great War, Choe shows how these films teach viewers about living and dying within a modern, mass mediated context.

"Moving away from reductive ideas of genre, Deamer tackles the complexity of a wide and extremely varied body of films united by the catastrophe of the atom bomb, allowing for a re-evaluation of forgotten gems as well as celebrated masterpieces. Unveiling not one but many Japans, this book testifies to the enduring power and infinite uses of Deleuze’s vision of cinema." Lúcia Nagib, Professor of Film, University of Reading, UK David Deamer explores how Japanese films responded to and were transformed by the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. From the early days of American occupation and political censorship through to the social and cultural freedom of the 1960s and beyond, Deleuze, Japanese Cinema, and the Atom Bomb examines how images of the event permeate post-war Japanese cinema.

Film Theory in Practice This series fills a gaping hole in the world of film theory by marrying the explanation of film theory with interpretation of a film. Each volume deals with a single theory and a single film, with the aim of providing a discrete example of how film theory can serve as the basis for textual analysis.

Althusser and The Gospel According to St. Matthew

Postcolonial Theory and Avatar

Agon Hamza

Gautam Basu Thakur

Althusser and The Gospel According to St. Matthew offers a concise introduction to Althusser's film theory in jargon-free language and shows how this theory can be deployed to interpret Pier Paolo Pasolini’s retelling of the story of Jesus Christ.

Louis Althusser’s work is typically considered only marginally, and rarely with the level of seriousness it demands. Agon Hamza fills a lacuna not only in film studies, but also in the philosophical understanding of Althusser. Hamza also provides a detailed comparison of Pasolini’s work with Martin Scorsese’s The Last Temptation of Christ to further explain the concepts of the critical philosophy and the emancipatory dimension of religion as such.

Agon Hamza is a PhD candidate in Philosophy at the Slovenian Academy of Arts and Sciences, defending in Fall 2014, and editor of the series Dialectical Materialism Collective.

Even as Avatar is widely celebrated for its politically and culturally sensitive critique of the "West’s" neocolonial wars and exploitation of the "global south," it is also criticized for repeating the colonialist fantasy of saving natives doomed by imperialist aggression. Basu Thakur provides an accessible intervention into this debate, focusing on issues of representations, discourse, subalternity, and subjectivity, all of which have been central to postcolonial theory and postcolonial analyses of culture.

Psychoanalytic Film Theory and The Rules of the Game Todd McGowan Psychoanalytic Film Theory and The Rules of the Game traces the development of psychoanalytic film theory through its foundation in the thought of Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan to its contemporary manifestation in the work of theorists like Slavoj Žižek and Joan Copjec. From this accessible philosophical base, Todd McGowan demonstrates how this theory can be deployed to interpret Jean Renoir's classic film. This history will bring the concepts of psychoanalytic film theory into practice through a detailed interpretation of The Rules of the Game.

Cinema of Simulation: Hyperreal Hollywood in the Long 1990s

Cinematic Chronotopes

Randy Laist

Pepita Hesselberth

Here, Now, Me

"While Baudrillard is at the heart of his lens, Laist deploys and interrogates feminist, Marxist, historiographic, and Freudian perspectives along the way. All readers will appreciate his careful and entertaining attention to the details of the popular films he considers, making this a study that will engage fans, students, and film scholars alike." Robin DeRosa, Professor of English, Plymouth State University, USA

"The question of cinematic time has become one of the key issues in contemporary film studies, and Cinematic Chronotopes tackles this issue in an original way, navigating between the idea that time has been eviscerated and the Deleuzean position that cinema immerses us in the time-image. This is a work full of great insights and edifying film analyses." Todd McGowan, Associate Professor, The University of Vermont, USA, and author of The Real Gaze: Film Theory After Lacan

The auteur cinema of the 1970s aimed for gritty realism, and the most prominent feature of Reagan-era cinema was its fantastic unrealism. Clintonera cinema, however, is characterized by a prevailing mood of hyperrealism, communicated in various ways by such benchmark films as JFK, Pulp Fiction, and The Matrix. The hyperreal cinema of the 1990s conceives of the movie screen as neither a window on a preexisting social reality (realism), nor as a wormhole into a fantastic dream-dimension (escapism), but as an arena in which images and reality exchange masks, blend into one another, and challenge the philosophical premises which differentiate them from one another. Cinema of Simulation: Hyperreal Hollywood in the Long 1990s provides a guided tour through the anxieties and fantasies, reciprocally social and cinematic, which characterize the surreal territory of the hyperreal.

Cinematic Chronotopes traces the thickening of time across four different spatio-temporal configurations of the non-traditional "cinematic," like the "fast-forward" and handheld aesthetic tropes. Only by juxtaposing these cases and by looking at what they have in common can we grasp the complexity of the changes that the cinematic is currently undergoing.

Critical Theory and Film Rethinking Ideology Through Film Noir Fabio Vighi "Fabio Vighi's Critical Theory and Film: Rethinking Ideology in Cinema is a kind of Everything You Wanted to Know about Theodor Adorno but were Afraid to Ask Film Noir. But it's also more than that. It makes the largest claims about ideology and the way society is structured and it marries them to the most detailed and nuanced readings of a series of not-so-well-known film noirs. And it shows that these two are exactly the same: that it is exactly in the detail of these films that we see most clearly the biggest and most important truths about our society. The book is a triumph of both film scholarship and theoretical speculation." Rex Butler, Lecturer in Art History, University of Queensland, Australia Drawing on the latest developments in Lacanian theory, Critical Theory and Film offers an innovative reading of film as a tool to help repoliticize culture and society and affirm the theoretical and political impact of cinematic knowledge. Even as this study analyzes the Frankfurt School’s view of cinema as an instrument of capitalism and the political regimentation of the masses, Fabio Vighi ultimately demonstrates that critical theory can instead trace out the progressive, positive potential of cinema.

The Orientation of Future Cinema

Cinema and Agamben

Technology, Aesthetics, Spectacle

Edited by Henrik Gustafsson & Asbjorn Gronstad

Bruce Isaacs "The Orientation of Future Cinema offers a lucid, theoretically grounded aesthetic justification for the new media including popular ‘high concept' cinema of spectacle and 3-D. Claiming that the digital image is understood as affective experience rather than representation, Bruce Isaacs takes a much-needed step toward providing a critical language for a media culture readily appreciated, manipulated and disseminated by today’s generation." Linda Badley, Professor of English, Middle Tennessee State University, USA The Orientation of Future Cinema offers an ambitious and compelling argument for the continued life of cinema as image, narrative, and experience. Commencing with Lumière’s Arrival of a Train at a Station, Bruce Isaacs confronts the threat of contemporary digital technologies and processes by returning to cinema’s complex history as a technological and industrial phenomenon. The technology of moving images has profoundly changed, and yet cinema materializes ever more forcefully in digital capture and augmentation, 3-D perception and affect, High Frame Rate cinema, and the evolution of spectacle as the dominant aesthetic mode in contemporary studio production.

Bruce Isaacs is a Lecturer in Film Studies at the University of Sydney, Australia. He has published widely on film history and theory.

Wag the Dog: A Study on Film and Reality in the Digital Age Eleftheria Thanouli Wag the Dog is a film that became a media event and a cultural icon because it inadvertently short-circuited the distance that is supposed to separate reality and fiction.

The examination of the historical and social context in which it was produced, exhibited, and received worldwide enables the author to illuminate a series of changes in the way a fiction film reflects and interacts with reality, urging us to reconsider some of our central and long-standing concepts or even paradigms in film theory.

Ethics, Biopolitics and the Moving Image

"A superb attempt to think cinema as a matter of life and death, this state-of-the-art collection draws on the philosophy of Giorgio Agamben to cast new light on the movement of images and on the various kinds of cuts that are made in their flow. The human gesture as captured by cinema becomes here a site of potentiality: a breach of the aesthetic, a differentiation from within and hence an opening to the ethico-political."

Joanna Zylinska, Professor of New Media and Communications, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK This is the first collection of original essays that brings together a group of established and emerging scholars of film and visual culture for an innovative study of contemporary film theory and philosophy. Refracting current conceptions of the moving image through the influential work of Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben, these essays enable a unique multidisciplinary conversation that fundamentally rethinks the theory and praxis of cinema.

The History of British Literature on Film

Adaptations in the Sound Era

Greg M. Colón Semenza & Robert Hasenfratz

Deborah Cartmell

The History of British Literature on Film is the only comprehensive narration of cinema's 100-year-old love affair with British literature. Shifting focus away from author-, text-, and period-centric studies, this volume considers the multiple functions of filmed British literature as a cinematic genre in its own right. This volume features a complete chronology of British literature on film between 1896-2010, alongside an online comprehensive chronology of Brit-Lit film adaptations spanning the history of the cinema.

1927-37 There is no disputing that the coming of sound heralded a new era for adaptations. Focusing on the promotional materials, Deborah Cartmell tracks early attempts to promote sound and the elevation of words in adaptations of the early sound period. The popular appeal of these films clearly stands in opposition to academic regard for them, but Cartmell provides a detailed reflection upon the presence and marketing of "words" in a variety of adaptations from the introduction of sound to the mid 1930s. Adaptations in the Sound Era: 1927-37 contextualizes a range of adaptations in relation to debates about "picturizations" of books in the early sound era, including the reactions to the talking adaptation by writers such as F.R. Leavis, Irwin Panofsky, Aldous Huxley and Graham Greene.

Deborah Cartmell is Professor of English and Director of the Centre for Adaptations at De Montfort University, UK, founder and co-editor of the international journals Shakespeare and Adaptation, founder and former Chair of the Association of Adaptation Studies.

Adaptation and the Avant-Garde Alternative Perspectives on Adaptation Theory and Practice William Verrone "With a certain amount of historical irony, adaptation studies have, in recent years, become a subtle, dynamic, and complex centerpiece in contemporary film and media studies. As the range of this work expands, new areas and issues continue to be explored, and Verrone's wide-ranging study of adaptation and the avant-garde is a long needed and exciting contribution to the intellectual energy of the field."

Timothy Corrigan, Professor of Cinema Studies, English, and History of Art, University of Pennsylvania, USA, and author of The Essay Film: From Montaigne, After Marker Including close readings of films by Greenaway, Pasolini, Kieslowski and Godard, among others, Verrone frames a new discussion of adaptation studies, examining how avant-garde directors and filmmakers have treated literary works in distinct ways.

Cult Film as a Guide to Life

Adaptation Theory and Criticism

Fandom, Adaptation, and Identity

Postmodern Literature and Cinema in the USA

I.Q. Hunter Cult Film as a Guide to Life investigates the world and experience of cult films, from well-loved classics to the worst movies ever made. Including comprehensive studies of cult phenomena such as bad films, paracinema, exploitation versions, slash fiction, and cult tourism, along with case studies of movies as different as Naked Lunch, Showgirls and Zabriskie Point, this lively and original book shows why cult films may just be the perfect guide to making sense of the contemporary world. I.Q. Hunter explores how cultists care for films over time and across numerous intertexts in relationships of memory, nostalgia and anticipation.

I.Q. Hunter is a Reader in Film Studies at De Montfort University, UK. He has published widely on cult film, genre cinema (especially British), and adaptations.

He is series co-editor of British Popular Cinema for which he edited British Science Fiction Cinema (1999) and co-edited British Comedy Cinema (2012).

Gordon E. Slethaug "Gordon E. Slethaug's ambitious and well-documented study proposes both to present a more systematic account of adaptations and the theories they have generated and to situate these texts and theories more firmly in a post-structuralist context.

Slethaug explores and accessibly dissects US film adaptations, supplementations, and citations through a postmodern methodology. The work includes several case studies of major Hollywood productions and small studio films, some of which have been discussed before and others that have received less consideration, such as Six Degrees of Separation, Smoke, Smoke Signals, Broken Flowers, and various Snow White narratives.

Useful for both film and literary studies students, Adaptation Theory and Criticism cogently combines the existing scholarship and uses previous theories to engage readers to think about the current state of American literature and film.

John Hodgkins "The Drift takes a serious look at the affective dynamic inherent to the process of adaptation, shedding genuinely new light on the dynamics between the media of literature and cinema. Thus, the book offers a new ‘method,’ if you will. The Drift is therefore essential in that it partakes in the effort to re-invent the scholarly discourse on adaptations." Marco Abel, Associate Professor of English and Film Studies, University of Nebraska, USA What affective work are certain literary and filmic texts performing? What can this tell us, more broadly, about the underexplored affective dimensions of literature and cinema, and the dialogic interactions between them? The Drift addresses such questions through close readings which put a variety of realist, modernist, and postmodernist works into conversation with each other, among them the fiction of John Dos Passos, Don DeLillo, and Susanna Moore, the films of Dziga Vertov and Sergei Eisenstein, as well as recent cinematic adaptations by Jane Campion and Charles Burnett. This methodological approach helps to elevate adaptation studies into a discourse that speaks more directly and pertinently to our fluid, hypertextual era.

The Staging of the New State Regime

Masculinity and Gender in Greek Cinema

Patricia Vieira

1949-1967

"This meticulously researched and well-written book represents a major contribution to Portuguese film historiography. Drawing from a broad range of official documents, critical reviews, and a diverse array of films, it offers a theoretically sophisticated, in-depth analysis of the relationship between cinema and the fascist New State in the period between 1930 and 1960." Randal Johnson, Distinguished Professor of Spanish and Portuguese, UCLA, USA Portuguese Film, 1930-1960: The Staging of the New State Regime provides groundbreaking analysis of Portuguese feature films produced in the first three decades of the New State (Estado Novo), a right-wing totalitarian regime that lasted between 1933 and 1974.

"A significant and timely contribution to the growing field of transnational cinema studies, this collection explores new directions and lines of inquiry into postexilic narratives of return. Extending in scope from the silent era to the present, the essays gathered here bring a much-needed historical perspective to current debates about immigration, diaspora, and globalization." Elizabeth Ezra, Professor of Cinema and Culture, The University of Stirling, UK

Achilleas Hadjikyriacou "Who are role models for modern Greek men? The classical heroes? Or contemporary Zorbas? This trailblazing fusion of film studies with gender history reveals how past and present mythologies influence the history of men...and women too." Penelope J. Corfield, Emeritus Professor, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK Between the end of the Civil War (1949) and the colonels' military coup (1967), Greece underwent tremendous political, economic, and social transformations which influenced gender identities and relations. During the same period, Greece also witnessed an unparalleled bloom in cinema productions. The double analytical perspective of Masculinity and Gender in Greek Cinema: 1949-1967 on cinema and masculinity advances both the study of cinema and popular culture as historical sources, and of masculinity and gender relations as valid categories of historical analysis. This is the first study to explore the dramatic transformation of masculinity and gender roles, as represented in Greek cinema during the turbulent 1950s and 1960s.

Achilleas Hadjikyriacou is Cultural Counsellor at the Cyprus High Commission in London, UK. Hadjikyriacou received his doctorate from the European University Institute, Florence, Italy in 2010. His academic interests focus on gender history, history of masculinity, history and popular culture, visual sources in history and the history of Greek Cinema.

Revolution and Rebellion in Mexican Film

Ecology and Contemporary Nordic Cinemas

Niamh Thornton

From Nation-building to Ecocosmopolitanism

"Informative, accessible, original and sophisticated.

We learn of a wide range of films that depict the Mexican Revolution, the 1968 student movement, and the 1994 Zapatista rebellion. This book is essential and enjoyable reading for anyone interested in Mexican history and film." Deborah Shaw, School of Creative Arts, Film and Media, University of Portsmouth, UK Revolution and Rebellion in Mexican Film examines Mexican films of political conflict from the early studio Revolutionary films from the 1930s through 1950s, up to the campaigning Zapatista films of the 2000s. Mapping this evolution out for the first time, the author takes three key events under consideration: the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920); the student movement and massacre in 1968; and, finally, the more recent Zapatista Rebellion (1994-present).

These conflicts have been an important component of Mexican film since its inception and include studio productions, documentaries, and independent films.

Memory, Conflict, and Identity in the Margins of Europe Edited by Costas Constandinides & Yiannis Papadakis "A pathbreaking analysis of a vastly underresearched film material which illuminates our understanding on some of the darkest moments in the contemporary history of Cyprus. By exploring social, national and historical controversies, the book constitutes a monumental study for anyone interested in visual representations of identity and conflict."

Achilleas Hadjikyriacou, author of Masculinity and Gender in Greek Cinema: 1949-1967 With an interdisciplinary and comparative approach, this book explores the work of a new generation of filmmakers striving to engage with Cyprus' traumatic legacies, such as anti-colonial struggles and post-colonial instability. Beginning from the cinema of the 1960s, the collection covers filmmakers currently exploring issues of conflict, memory, identity, nationalism, migration and gender, as well as those who chose to cooperate across the ethnic divide and the younger generation of Cypriot filmmakers.

Making Time in Stanley Kubrick's Barry Lyndon Art, History, and Empire Maria Pramaggiore "A significant contribution to the Kubrick literature.

Impeccably researched and eminently readable, Pramaggiore’s book gives Barry Lyndon the full and detailed attention it deserves." Robert Kolker, Emeritus Professor of English, University of Maryland, USA, and author of A Cinema of Loneliness, The Altering Eye, and The Cultures of American Film Though considered by critics to be Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece, Barry Lyndon has suffered from scholarly and popular neglect. By combining extensive research into the film's source novel, production, and reception with systematic textual analysis and an engagement with several key issues in academic debate, this work promises not only to make a huge impact in the field of Kubrick studies, but also in transnational film practice.

Philip Kuberski “This book, couched in Kuberski's lucid prose, will please the fan of Kubrick's films, reward the scholar, and seduce the skeptic.” Dennis A. Foster, Professor of English, Southern Methodist University, USA Whatever people think about Kubrick's work, most would agree that there is something distinctive, even unique, about his films: a coolness, an intellectual clarity, a critical edginess, and finally an intractable ambiguity. In an attempt to isolate the Kubrick difference, this book treats Kubrick's films to a conceptual and formal analysis rather than a biographical and chronological survey to uncover the "elements" of Kubrick's total cinema.

Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained

Terrence Malick

The Continuation of Metacinema

Edited by Thomas Deane Tucker & Stuart Kendall

Edited by Oliver C. Speck "This collection, the first to focus exclusively on the successful and controversial movie Django Unchained from the equally successful and controversial Quentin Tarantino, covers an impressively wide array of subjects and represents a variety of interdisciplinary perspectives of the film—from questions about race to the representation of violence."

Timothy Corrigan, Professor of English, Cinema Studies, and History of Art, University of Pennsylvania, USA Django Unchained is certainly Quentin Tarantino's most commercially successful film and is arguably also his most controversial. The collected essays in this book examine the film's topic (slavery and revenge), the setting (shortly before the Civil War) and the intentionally provocative generic roots (alluding to Spaghetti Western and Blaxploitation).

Oliver C. Speck is Associate Professor of Film Studies at Virginia Commonwealth University, USA. His scholarly writing focuses on the representation of memory and history in French, German and other European cinema.

Film and Philosophy

“Terrence Malick provides a wonderfully stimulating range of approaches to Malick's films, unlocking the philosophical depths of the most thoughtful auteur of recent decades…this book is at the cutting edge of recent developments in film-philosophy, and is essential reading for anyone interested in the subject. It is also a superb exploration of Malick's most important films as writer and director, from Badlands to The New World.” David Martin-Jones, Professor of Film Studies, University of Glasgow, UK Each of the essays in Terrence Malick: Film and Philosophy engages with Malick's body of work in distinct and significant ways: by looking at the tradition within which Malick works, the creative orientation of the filmmaker, and by discussing the ways in which criticism can illuminate these remarkable films. Critical approaches evidenced in this collection range from film studies and philosophical inquiry to phenomenological, deconstructive, and Deleuzian perspectives on film.

The Cinema of Hal Hartley

Politics as Form in Lars von Trier

Sebastian Manley

A Post-Brechtian Reading

"Eminently readable, with two revelatory interviews with Hartley collaborators appended as a bonus, The Cinema of Hal Hartley is a welcome, and long overdue, appraisal of one of the most important contributors to contemporary independent film." Chris Holmlund, Arts and Sciences Excellence Professor of Cinema Studies, Women's Studies, and French, University of

Angelos Koutsourakis

One of the most significant contributors to the American independent cinema, Hal Hartley has throughout his career created films that defy convention and capture the stranger realities of modern American life.

Employing both industrial and close textual analysis, The Cinema of Hal Hartley considers aspects of Hartley's work such as genre, gender, and form, as well as dimensions far less frequently discussed in studies of indie directors, such as place and cultural identity, offering a broad and innovative study of a productive filmmaker who continues to show a singular disregard for the expectations of both the mainstream and the indie cinema industries.

Sebastian Manley completed a PhD in film studies at the University of East Anglia, UK, in 2011. He has written on subjects including Hal Hartley, independent cinema, early British film and Jan Svankmajer, and maintains a blog on animals in film called The Cinematic Animal.

"Unlike many books on von Trier, this richly illustrated study, including interviews and relevant documents, pushes far beyond the biographical into the media and representational aesthetics that distinguish this body of challenging films." Marc Silberman, Professor of German, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA Employing a materialist framework to discuss the political implications of form in the early films of Lars von Trier, Politics as Form in Lars von Trier identifies recurring formal elements in von Trier’s oeuvre and discusses the formal complexity of his films under the rubric of the post-Brechtian.

Through an in depth formal analysis, the book shows that Brecht is key to von Trier’s work and deems von Trier a dialectical filmmaker. This study draws on many untranslated resources and features interviews with Lars von Trier and his mentor, the great Danish director Jørgen Leth.

Joseph Cornell Versus Cinema

Machine Vision and the Posthuman

Michael Pigott

David Tomas

Joseph Cornell is one of the most significant American artists of the 20th century. His work is highly visible in the world's most prestigious galleries, including the Tate Modern and MOMA. His famous boxes and his collage work have been admired and widely studied.

"An accessible and sophisticated analysis of the fascinating genealogy of the origins of the idea of the posthuman cyborg in early cinema and later machine visions..." Chris Gray, author of Cyborg Citizen Vertov, Snow, Farocki: Machine Vision and the Posthuman explores the contributions of Vertov's film The Man With a Movie Camera to media history and practice through detailed, comparative case studies of other films. The linkages between Vertov's films and the works discussed in the case studies serve to illustrate the historical and theoretical significance of a comparative approach, while also illustrating the pertinence of adopting a "relational approach" to the history of media and its contemporary practice.

The book offers an in-depth discussion of Del Toro's output and locates and investigates key ideas, recurrent motifs, and subtle links between his movies. As well as extensive close textual analysis, the authors consider Del Toro's considerable influence on wider popular culture, including a discussion of his role as a producer, as an ambassador for "geek" culture, and as a figurehead in new international cinema.

While presenting theoretical ideas in an accessible way, Sim's historical materialist approach uniquely triangulates critical insights of well-known work by Edward Said with Neo-Marxian writing about film by Theodor Adorno and Fredric Jameson.

It offers new and much needed insight into Italian cinema and its histories of race.

Derek Duncan, Professor of Italian Cultural Studies, University of Bristol, UK A thorough study of the portrayal of race in Italian cinema, from the silent era to the present, illuminating issues in contemporary Italian society. Greene argues that from the silent era to the present, the cinematic representation of the "mixed-race" or interracial subject has served as a means by which Italian racial and national identity have been negotiated and re-defined.

Poitier Revisited Reconsidering a Black Icon in the Obama Age Edited by Ian Gregory Strachan & Mia Mask "With Poitier Revisited Ian Gregory Stachan and Mia Mask present a well-curated collection of essays about Hollywood’s first Black leading man. Each separate contribution provides an original interpretation of a complex man, performer, and political icon, while the collection as a whole comes together in thoughtful harmony. In all, Poitier Revisited is an important addition to a woefully underrepresented figure in film studies." Paula J. Massood, Professor of Film Studies, Brooklyn College, City University of New York, USA Poitier Revisited offers a fresh interrogation of the social, cultural, and political significance of the Poitier oeuvre. The contributions explore the broad spectrum of critical issues summoned up by Poitier's iconic work as actor, director, and filmmaker. This collection reconsiders his pivotal role in film and American race relations, arguing that even in this supposedly "post-racial" moment of Barack Obama, the struggles, aspirations, anxieties, and tensions Poitier's films are every bit as relevant today.

Documenting Racism African Americans in US Department of Agriculture Documentaries, 1921-42 J. Emmett Winn From the silent era through the 1950s, the U.S. Department of Agriculture was the preeminent government filmmaking organization: USDA films were shown in movie theaters, schools at all educational levels, churches, libraries, and even in open fields. Focusing specifically on four key films, Winn explicates the representation of African Americans in these films within the sociopolitical context of their times, demonstrating how politics and filmmaking converged to promote a governmentally sanctioned view of racism in the U.S. in the early 20th century.

Larry David, Tina Fey, Stephen Colbert, and Dave Chappelle Rick DesRochers "The Comic Offense demonstrates how today's cutting edge comedy builds upon the legacy of Vaudeville, demonstrating yet again that everything old is new again. Along the way, readers will develop a deeper understanding of how comedy has spoken to us across time about issues of gender, racial, and ethnic identity. The analysis is insightful; the examples are provocative; and the writing is engaging."

Henry Jenkins, Provost’s Professor of Communications, Journalism, Cinematic Arts and Education, University of Southern California, USA

The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets Simon Singh "Singh blows the lid off a decades-long conspiracy to secretly educate cartoon viewers" David X Cohen, writer for The Simpsons and Futurama The brainy new book by the bestselling author of Fermat’s Enigma.

You may have watched hundreds of episodes of The Simpsons (and its sister show Futurama) without ever realizing that cleverly embedded in many plots are subtle references to mathematics, ranging from well-known equations to cutting-edge theorems. That they exist, Simon Singh reveals, underscores the brilliance of the shows’ writers, many of whom have advanced degrees in mathematics in addition to their unparalleled sense of humor.

With wit and clarity, displaying a true fan’s zeal, The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets offers an entirely new insight into the most successful show in television history.

Simon Singh received his PhD in particle physics from the University of Cambridge.

A former BBC producer, he directed the BAFTA Award-winning documentary film Fermat's Last Theorem and he is the author of bestselling books including Fermat's Enigma and Big Bang. He lives in London.

Television on Demand Curatorial Culture and the Transformation of TV MJ Robinson

TELEVISION

TELEVISION

The rise of a curatorial culture where viewers create their own entertainment packages and select from a buffet of viewing options and venues has caused a seismic shift for the traditional television industry. Even as audiences clamor for more story-driven and scripted entertainment, their new viewing habits undermine the dominant economic structures that fund quality episodic series. Television on Demand examines how we have reached this present moment; and considers the viable future(s) of this crucial culture industry.

Post-Object Fandom Television, Identity and Self-narrative

Dreams in American Television Narratives

Rebecca Williams

From Dallas to Buffy

"A must read for fans and scholars alike, Post-Object Fandom makes a significant contribution to fan and media scholarship with its strong theoretical background and emphasis on moments of transition in fan identity. From regeneration to resurrection, this is a book about conclusions that you won’t want to end." Paul Booth, Associate Professor of Media and Cinema Studies, DePaul University, USA Whilst it is inevitable for television series to draw to a close, the reactions of fans have rarely been considered. Williams explores this everyday occurrence through close analysis of how television fans respond to, discuss, and work through their feelings when shows finish airing. Through a range of case studies, including The West Wing (NBC, 2000-2006), Lost (ABC 2004 -2010), Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2003), Doctor Who (BBC 1963-1989; 2005-), The X-Files (FOX, 1993-2002), Firefly (FOX, 2002) and Sex and the City (HBO, 1998-2004), Williams considers how fans prepare for the final episodes of shows, how they talk about this experience with fellow fans, and how, through re-viewing, discussion, and other fan practices, they seek to maintain their fandom after the show's cessation.

Cynthia Burkhead "In this deftly written, cogent, comprehensive, and pioneering study, a must read for every fully conscious TV scholar, Cynthia Burkhead not only wakes up television studies to the neglected oneirics of its intricate narratology but provides some dreamy interpretations of the most engaging and essential televisual reveries." David Lavery, author of Joss Whedon: A Creative Portrait from Buffy the Vampire Slayer to Marvel’s The Avengers This is the first comprehensive analysis of one of American television's most frequently utilized tropes: the dream. Locating its primary function as narrative, the author uses examples from American sitcoms and dramatic programs, analyzing the dream's narrative functions using Carl Jung's narrative stages of the dream: exposition, development, culmination, and conclusion. Burkhead includes a compendium of over 1000 television episodes that feature dreams, a valuable tool for any television scholar or enthusiast.

Info-Aesthetics Lev Manovich Manovich, founder of a new area of study 'Software Studies', investigates how the movement from industry to information in the global economy has created an ostensibly new aesthetic of sensibility and representation.

In proposing software as modernity's new societal force, this book seeks to reclassify software as today's revitalised combustion engine, underpinning the logic of contemporary culture.

The Materiality of Media, Matter as Medium

The Contradictions of Media Power

Edited by Bernd Herzogenrath

Des Freedman

Launching Bloomsbury’s Thinking Media series, Media Matter introduces the nascent field of media-philosophy by focusing on cinema—an apt choice of study,given that cinema has already inspired a philosophically oriented approach to media theory. Contributors urge readers to re-adjust their ideas of Media Studies, by extending the understanding of "medium" to include "non-human" transmitters (elements such as water, earth, fire, air) and defining a new "media ecology."

Bernd Herzogenrath is Professor of American Studies at the University of Frankfurt, Germany.

The Trojan Horse

The Child in Film and Media

The Growth of Commercial Sponsorship

Edited by Alexander N. Howe & Wynn Yarbrough

Deborah Philips & Garry Whannel

"A must for students and researchers in child studies, education, film studies, children’s media and children’s literature... Drawing on such diverse fields as education, cultural studies, film theory, literary theory, history and disability studies... this collection is an important, thought-provoking, and long overdue contribution to the scholarly study of children in the media." Annette Wannamaker, Associate Professor of English, Eastern Michigan University, USA Kidding Around: The Child in Film and Media examines a variety of children's media, including texts produced for children (e.g., children's books, cartoons, animated films) as well as texts about children (e.g., feature-length films, literature, playground architecture, parenting guides) to analyze and contextualize contested representations of childhood and children in various 20th- and 21st-century media. Despite the fact that today children are one of the most coveted demographics in marketing and viewership, academic work on children's media, and children in media, is just beginning. Kidding Around assembles experts from this inchoate field, opening discussion to a critical history of the very notion of childhood.

"Deborah Philips and Garry Whannel have given us a great gift--a book that manages to transcend its times, even as it captures them. They analyze the ruins of neoliberalism's baleful influence on British life, from culture to sport to health. Blending political economy with cultural studies, The Trojan Horse expertly describes thirty years of struggle and mystification."

The Trojan Horse traces the growth of commercial sponsorship in the public sphere since the 1960s, its growing importance for the arts since 1980, and its spread into areas such as education and health. Placing the study in the context of the more general colonization of the state by private capital and the challenge posed to the dominance of neo-liberal economics by the recent global financial crisis, the authors argue that the image of sponsorship as corporate benevolence has served to routinize and legitimate the presence of commerce within the public sector.

International Texts in Critical Media Aesthetics Transcending the hype that has accompanied – and distorted – popular understanding of the creative potential of new media, this series provides a critical perspective on electronic art, literature, performance, architecture, and film. The series examines the problem of how technology as a creative medium simultaneously relies upon and differs from conventional media for creative expression in these key humanistic disciplines.

The Internet Unconscious

When the Machine Made Art

On the Subject of Electronic Literature

The Troubled History of Computer Art

Sandy Baldwin

Grant D. Taylor

"Underpinned by an encyclopedic purview that stretches across philosophy, engineering, poetics, and fanboy familiarity with the forms and contents of digital production, this book is both unassailably expert and unabashedly experimental. I wish I had written it, though if Baldwin's premises about the ambiguity of electronic authorship are to be taken seriously, perhaps I did." Aden Evens, Associate Professor of English, Dartmouth College, USA The Internet Unconscious describes the poetics of the net's “becomingliterary,” by employing concepts that are both technically-specific and poetically-charged, providing a coherent and persuasive theory. The incorporation and projection of sites and technical protocols produces an uncanny displacement of the writer's body onto diverse part objects, and in turn to an intense and real inhabitation of the net through writing. The fundamental poetic situation of net writing is the phenomenology of “as-if.”

Net writing involves construal of the world through the imaginary.

"How astonishing that the pioneers of computer, digital, algorithmic, programming, and mash-up art are largely unknown at the very moment when the computer, or more specifically its handheld, lap bound, or otherwise omnipresent progeny are transforming virtually every aspect of existence! I read this, fascinated by the continued relevance of the artists (and their disputes) and delighted to know that finally, with this publication, there exists a portrait of an evolving movement that has worked assiduously at the boundaries of the art world for fifty years." Hannah B Higgins, Professor of Art History, University of Illinois Chicago, USA This book examines the cultural and critical response to computer art, by identifying the destabilizing forces that affect, shape, and eventually fragment the computer art movement. It traces the heated debates between art and science from the emergence of computer art in 1963 to the present.

Taylor also covers the understudied period of the origination of digital art.

News Media Management in the Digital Age

Robert E. Gutsche Media Control: News as an Institution of Power and Social Control challenges traditional (and even some radical) perceptions of how the news works by arguing that the cultural institution of news approaches and presents everyday information from particular and dominant cultural positions that benefit the power elite. Media Control presents the news through a new lens, exploring cultural meanings within news coverage of police action, the criminal justice system, and embedding into the news democratic values that are later used by the power elite to oppress and repress portions of the citizenry.

Women's Culture, Feminisms and Media Form

New American Teenagers

Laurel Forster

The Lost Generation of Youth in 1970s Film

"Magazine Movements significantly broadens and deepens the historical treatment of women’s magazines, and refuses easy generalisation about their meaning and role. Juxtaposing experimental, political and niche-audience titles to mainstream commercial products enables Forster to trace an inclusive, provocative history of British feminism across the second half of the twentieth century. Her innovative discussion of magazine formats, spanning print and broadcast media, charts the persistence and influence of the magazine genre for both commercial and counter-cultural negotiations of gender, race, sexuality and modernity.

This is an authoritative and critical media history that makes important contributions to understanding women’s lives and political engagement."

Lucy Delap, Fellow of Murray Edwards College, University of Cambridge, UK This book offers the first comprehensive exploration of the scope of the women's magazine as a media form. Each chapter provides a case study of a different kind of magazine: different in media form, style of presentation, audience connection, or all three. Forster not only extends our definition of a magazine, but most importantly, unearths the connections between women’s cultures, specific magazines, and the implied reader.

Laurel Forster is Senior Lecturer in Media Studies at the University of Portsmouth, UK. Her research interests and her range of publications contextualize the portrayal of women and women's cultures in magazines, women's writing and on television.

Barbara Jane Brickman "Barbara Jane Brickman's smart and engaging reading of youth-oriented films of the 1970s charters new territory by uncovering their subversive potential in their treatment of issues of gender, generation, and sexuality. Her informative and insightful analysis of some of the decade's most popular films is a welcomed addition to the study of the American teen film." Stephen Tropiano, author of Rebels & Chicks: A History of the Hollywood Teen Movie By re-examining teen film of the 1970s, New American Teenagers uncovers previously marginalized voices that rework the classically male, heterosexual American teenage story. Moving away from the romantic male figure of James Dean, the adolescents of the 1970s offer a dramatically altered picture of transformed gender dynamics, fluid and queered sexuality, and a chilling disregard for the authority of parent. Brickman establishes the subversive potential and critical revision inherent in the narratives of these new teenage voices, particularly with regards to changing notions of gender and sexuality.

Enchanting David Bowie

Deconstructing Brad Pitt

Space/Time/Body/Memory

Edited by Christopher Schaberg & Robert Bennett

Edited by Toija Cinque, Christopher Moore & Sean Redmond Enchanting David Bowie explores David Bowie as an antitemporal figure, arguing that we need to understand him across the multitude of media platforms and art spaces he inhabits, including theatre, film, television, the web, exhibition, installation, music, lyrics, video, and fashion.

This exciting collection is organised according to the key themes of space, time, body, and memory: themes that literally and metaphorically address the key questions and intensities of his output.

Toija Cinque is a Senior Lecturer, Course Chair and Course Discipline Adviser in the School of Communication and Creative Arts at Deakin University, Australia.

Christopher Moore is Lecturer in Media and Communication at Deakin University, Australia. Sean Redmond is Associate Professor in Media and Communication at Deakin University, Australia.

"With just the right mix of wit, self-awareness, and critical passion, the authors subject the curious case of brand Pitt--artist and star, boy toy and generational icon, Redford scion and Ninth Ward architect, Chanel shill and co-proprietor of the going concern known as Brangelina--to edifying and satisfying scrutiny."

Eric Lott, City University of New York, The Graduate Center, USA Schaberg and Bennett have shaped a book that is not simply a multifaceted analysis of Brad Pitt as an actor and as a celebrity, but also a personal inquiry into how we are drawn to, turned on, or otherwise piqued by Pitt’s performances and personae. Written in accessible prose, accompanied by a full-color visual essay, and culled from the expertise of scholars across different fields, Deconstructing Brad Pitt lingers on this iconic actor and elucidates his powerful influence on contemporary culture.

First Comes Love Power Couples, Celebrity Kinship, and Cultural Politics Edited by Shelley Cobb & Neil Ewen First Comes Love interrogates the ways in which celebrity relationships are intertwined with wider cultural debates, establishing an intellectual map of shifting notions of kinship over the last century. In the media age, celebrity relationships are ubiquitous and, as each chapter here illuminates, they have a particular role in dramatizing, disrupting, and reconciling contradictory ideas about gender, sexuality, and kinship identities. Popular celebrity relationships can act as fantasies about love, marriage, and family or aspirational dreams of luxury and stability; they can reinforce conservative and traditional gender roles and sexual identities, or, importantly, disrupt these norms.

Celebrity Capital

Alain Delon

Assessing the Value of Fame

Style, Stardom and Masculinity

Barrie Gunter

Edited by Nick Rees-Roberts & Darren Waldron

"This volume introduces key debates from within the field of film star studies and celebrity culture as they are understood in terms of what Gunter refers to as ‘celebrity capital’. The case studies presented here are engaging and thought-provoking and will undoubtedly make you think again about the role, responsibility and representation of celebrity culture." Rebecca Feasey, Senior Lecturer in Film and Media Communications, Bath Spa University, UK Employing an interesting and new approach to the growing scholarly interest in celebrity culture, Barrie Gunter uses the idea of value as expressed through the term "capital." While capital usually refers to the monetary worth of something, celebrity capital can not only be measured in economic terms but also in social, political, and psychological terms. Including further reading for students, key points, and end of chapter discussion questions,alongside in-depth, international research, Gunter creates the first methodology to assess the value of fame.

Barrie Gunter is Professor of Mass Communication at the University of Leicester, UK.

Few European male actors have been as influential for generations of filmgoers as Alain Delon. Emblematic of a modern, European masculinity, Delon's appeal spanned cultures and continents, reaching as far afield as East Asia, where young men imitated his look and mannerisms. Extending the important scholarship on the screen star's image to include both textual and contextual readings of Delon's career, this collection explores the star in the context of transnational cinema culture, the global reception of his films, his iconic performances, and cool masculine image.

Compromised Data

An Introduction to New Media

From Social Media to Big Data

Jo Pierson & Joke Bauwens

Edited by Greg Elmer, Ganaele Langlois & Joanna Redden

"This accessible, incisive and well-structured book cleverly summarizes and synthesizes key debates around 'broadcasting' in a digital age." Niki Strange, Research Fellow in Media Studies, University of Sussex, UK, and founder of Strange Digital With an international range of case studies, Digital Broadcasting introduces students to the issue of how the classic notion of "broadcasting" has evolved and is being reinterpreted due to the far-reaching effects of digitization, while also demonstrating how this has implications for other new media. It also looks at current developments in television and radio broadcasting at the level of regulation and policy, industries and economics, production and content, and consumption and use practices.

There has been a data rush in the past decade brought about by online communication and, in particular, social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and the like. Such new wealth of social knowledge brings with it the promise of a new age of digital enlightenment, but also issues relating to privacy and the ethics of research frameworks.

Compromised Data explores how we can perform critical research within a compromised social data framework, and the international lineup of contributors analyzes the limits and challenges of social data research in order to invent and develop new modes of doing public research.

Fun and Software Exploring Pleasure, Paradox and Pain in Computing Edited by Olga Goriunova "A serious materialist approach to software inevitably must confront the emotional character of programming, in all of its component parts, from the thrill of invention to obsession. It must also wrestle with entrenched notions that this craft is driven predominantly by a cool, calculated rationality. Long overdue, Fun and Software fulfills both requirements, providing an exquisite collection of delightful essays full of insight about the deep pleasures and frustrations feeding the inventive process of coding." Gabriella Coleman, Wolfe Chair in Scientific and Technological Literacy, McGill University, Canada In Fun and Software, software is taken out of its "remote" professional corner to be looked at as a field of practice guided by emotion, experiment, and paradox. This is the first collection detailing the attention to the cultural significance and social implications of software.

Technobiophilia Nature and Cyberspace

Google Earth: Outreach and Activism

Sue Thomas

Catherine Summerhayes

"Sue Thomas has taken a very personal and broadly interdisciplinary look at one of the most important issues of our time -- the tension between the natural and digital worlds. This book provides a useful lens for seeing where we are, who we are, and where humans, our digital creations, and the natural world are heading. We need to learn to make fulfilling lives without abandoning either the world of technology or the world of biology. Technobiophlia shows the way." Howard Rheingold, Lecturer, Stanford University, US, and author of Net Smart Technobiophilia examines how nature metaphors are used to refer to online experiences by investigating the sources and history of usage. Thomas explores ways to make our peace with technology-induced anxiety and achieve a "tech-nature balance" through practical experiments designed to enhance our digital lives indoors, outdoors, and online.

"How are we to think through 21st century visual regimes that have come to supplement perspective and realism? Summerhayes goes beyond analyses of the new cartographies as tools of authority, exploring instead the new affective connections afforded by Google Earth, new ways of being human. Vital reading for those who work to make data social." Sean Cubitt, Professor of Film and Television, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK Launched in 2005, Google Earth is a virtual globe, map, and geographical information program, mapping the Earth by the superimposition of images obtained from satellite imagery and aerial photography. By addressing the sociopolitical issues at stake in society's use of social websites, the author provides the first ever extended close reading of Google Earth as a powerful player in the communication realm of social media. Summerhayes traces how social networking and information sites work in socio- and geo-political contexts in order to use these sites effectively and for the public good.

Internet, Society and Culture

Virtual Reality

Communicative Practices Before and After the Internet

Representations in Contemporary Media Melanie Chan

Tim Jordan "By contrasting the letter writing practices of Australian early colonizers with the contemporary performative practices of gamers colonizing virtual spaces, Tim Jordan explains how people play with matter, performativity and presence to tell stories that both stabilize and reinvent the place of the self at a given point in time. Original, imaginative and sharp." Zizi Papacharissi, Professor and Head of Communication, University of Illinois-Chicago, USA Internet, Society and Culture examines two case studies of pre- and postinternet communication: Tim Jordan compares letters sent to and from Australia in 1835-1858 with communications sent during online gaming.

The former relies on the body having touched and created a message, by attaching a signature, for example, to stabilize the nature of sender, message and receiver. Post-internet communication is different because no identity-marker can be trusted on the internet, and so individual communication styles are used to stabilize the transmission of messages.

Tim Jordan is a Senior Lecturer at King's College London, leading development there of analysis of digital culture. He is a member of two departments, Culture, Media and Creative Industries and Digital Humanities. Tim has been involved in analysis of the social and cultural meaning of the internet and cyberspace since the mid-1990s, as part of which he has published the books: Hacking: digital media and technological determinism (2008), Cyberpower (1999) and, with Paul Taylor, Hacktivism and Cyberwars (2004). He is a founding editor of the journal Social Movement Studies.

Pixar with Lacan The Hysteric's Guide to Animation Lilian Munk Rösing

Edited by Chris Pallant Including essays from international perspectives, Animated Landscapes introduces an idea that has seemed, literally, to be in the background of animation studies.

The collection provides a timely counterpoint to the dominance of character that exists within animation scholarship (and film studies more generally). Chapters address a wide range of topics including history, case studies in national contexts (including Australia, Japan, China and Latvia), the traversal of animated landscape, the animation of fantastical landscapes, and the animation of interactive landscapes. Animated Landscape is an invaluable addition to the existing literature on the most overlooked aspect of animation.

Pixar with Lacan has the double aim of analyzing Pixar films and exemplifying important psychoanalytic concepts (the voice, the gaze, partial object, the Other, the object a, the primal father, the name-of-the-father, symbolic castration, the imaginary/ the real/ the symbolic, desire and drive, the four discourses, masculine/ feminine) within them. Rösing closely examines the ideological implications of the images of human existence given in the films.

A Critical Introduction Anime: A Critical Introduction explores Japanese animation culture, showing how a wide range of commentators have made sense of anime. From the battling robots of the mecha genre through to Studio Ghibli’s plucky shojo (young girl) characters, this book charts the rise of anime as a globally significant category of animation. Denison thinks through the differences between anime’s local and global genres, considering the less-considered niches like nichijo-kei (everyday style anime) through to the globally popular science fiction anime.

Anime is here understod as a complex cultural phenomenon: not simply a “genre,” but an always shifting and changing set of texts.

The Interface Envelope

Shigeru Miyamoto

Gaming, Technology, Power

Super Mario Bros., Donkey Kong, The Legend of Zelda

James Ash "James Ash's critical study shows how interfaces create spatio-temporal traps in which we are enveloped in alternative worlds. Cognitive capitalism works through techniques that stimulate our perceptions and sense of difference. Ash's book is a strong take on the nonhuman aspects in contemporary media culture without forgetting issues of political economy either. It will definitely speak to readers in game, media and cultural studies." Jussi Parikka, Professor of Technological Culture & Aesthetics, Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton, UK, and author of Digital Contagions In The Interface Envelope, James Ash develops a series of concepts to understand how digital interfaces work to shape the spatial and temporal perception of players. Drawing upon examples from video game design and work from post-phenomenology, speculative realism, new materialism, and media theory, Ash argues that interfaces create envelopes, or localized foldings of space time, around which bodily and perceptual capacities are organized. Ash develops a series of responses to the potential problematics of interface envelopes and envelope power and emphasizes their pharmacological nature.

Jennifer deWinter You may never have heard of Shigeru Miyamoto, but his output is sure to stir in you feelings of nostalgia and contentment. Joining Nintendo in the late 1970s, Miyamoto was the creator of lasting game franchises such as Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, and Donkey Kong, In Shigeru Miyamoto, Jennifer deWinter combines critical essays with interviews, bibliographies, and striking visuals to launch the new Influential Video Game Designers series, providing gamers, industry professionals, and scholars with a history of the games they love.

Game Play

Gameworlds

Paratextuality in Contemporary Board Games

Virtual Media and Children's Everyday Play

Paul Booth

Seth Giddings

The 21st century has seen a board game renaissance, dominated by complex and strategic board games based on book, TV, and film franchises. In Game Play: Paratextuality in Contemporary Board Games, Paul Booth examines how a game can represent a cult world and how narrative can cross media platforms.

By investigating the relationship between these media products and their board game versions, Booth illustrates the connections between cult media, gameplay, and narrative in a digital media environment.

"This is a methodologically rich and thoroughly engaging book. Giddings gives us insight into the profound agencies of children in the midst of our new media saturated, yet still very material, culture. More than this, thanks to Giddings, we can now look to our young bricoleurs for analytic advice on how to make sense of the increasingly complex strands of power, pleasure and materiality that make up contemporary social life." Bart Simon, Associate Professor of Sociology & Anthropology, Concordia University, Canada Drawing on recent theoretical work in science and technology studies, games studies, and new media studies, Seth Giddings explores the material and embodied character of gameworlds and their components. Using microethnography as an innovative method for describing and theorizing digital play, Gameworlds explores the nature of play in virtual worlds and how this relates, and crosses over, into everyday play in the actual world.

Rated M for Mature Sex and Sexuality in Video Games Edited by Matthew Wysocki & Evan W. Lauteria The word sex has many implications when it is used in connection with video games. Rated M for Mature examines the intersection of games with sexual content, from the supposed scandal of “Hot Coffee” to the emergence of same-sex romance options in RPGs. Contributions converse with feminist, queer, and gender studies to expand the field of game studies as a whole.
