FILM STARS
Star Studies: A Critical Guide
Edited by Martin Shingler and Susan Smith
Pam Cook, Professor Emerita in Film, University of Southampton, UK
Stars are an integral part of the global film industry, as much now, in the age of celebrity culture, as in the era of Classical Hollywood. Each book in this major new BFI series focuses on an international film star, tracing the development of their star persona, their career trajectory, their acting and performance style, the cultural significance of their work, and their lasting influence and legacy. The series ranges across the history of cinema, from the silent to the contemporary period; Hollywood, European and Asian cinemas, and child and adult stardom.
Pam Cook's study of the star persona of Nicole Kidman traces Kidman's career trajectory through an examination of her (sometimes controversial) film choices and places her in the context of a globalized media and celebrity culture. July 2012 Paperback

Established by the film industry in 1912 as the nation’s only official and independent classifier of the moving image, the British Board of Film Classification (originally the British Board of Film Censors) has long been a source of fascination – and sometimes a bone of contention – for filmgoers, filmmakers and industry figures. This new book, published in the BBFC’s centenary year, addresses Britain’s film classification history, and marks an unparalleled collaboration between the Board and leading film critics, historians and cultural commentators. These writers, given unprecedented access to the BBFC’s archives, chart the organization’s history alongside the cultural, social and political forces that have helped shape it. Together they explore shifting public attitudes towards cinema’s portrayal of sex and drugs, horror and violence; the different perspectives of the Board’s successive leaders; the impact of controversial decisions, and the ever-changing nature of moving image distribution and exhibition. The book also features unique case studies, written by BBFC staff, focusing on significant films that have provoked debate and controversy both within the BBFC and more widely - Battleship Potemkin, The Snake Pit, A Clockwork Orange, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and many more. Behind the Scenes at the BBFC: Film Classification from the Silver Screen to the Digital Age is an entertaining and invaluable insight into shifts in public attitudes over the last century, and how film classification shapes what we see on screen.

Andrew Utterson, Senior Lecturer in Film and Digital Media, Canterbury Christ Church University, UK
‘Utterson adroitly draws out the tensions between “technophobic” film portrayals of computers and an avant-garde of digital utopians engaged in computer-aided art (spare a thought for the sad fate of the “lightpen”), who tempted directors to adopt their technology, as with Westworld’s pixellated point-of-view shots. Quirky techno-anecdotes abound: the hacking of scavenged second-world-war ballistics computers; the origin of ASCII art; talk of a computer that makes a “Freudian slip”; and even an evocative appeal to “robotic ontology”. Is it time to watch The Matrix again yet?’ - The Guardian Andrew Utterson’s unique study charts the beginnings of digital cinema, addressing both how filmmakers used new digital technologies and how attitudes and anxieties about the rise of the computer were represented in films such as Lang’s Desk Set, Godard’s Alphaville, Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey and Crichton’s Westworld.

UNDERSTANDING THE MOVING IMAGE SERIES
Understanding Audiences and the Film Industry Roy Stafford, Freelance Lecturer and Writer, UK
Understanding Audiences and the Film Industry brings together an introduction to academic study of audiences as ‘readers’ of films and an investigation into how the film industry perceives audiences as part of its industrial practices. The approach draws on ideas from film, media and cultural studies in order to present new insights into a range of puzzling questions: What makes the biggest box office films attractive to audiences? Why do films that work well with audiences sometimes suffer poor distribution? And what is a ‘cult film’ and how do such films gain their status? May 2007 Paperback

‘This is the book that film students have long been waiting for: a clear, wellwritten and accessible introduction to film theory. Lucid theoretical exposition and case study film analysis offer readers the most intelligible summary of theory that I have yet encountered.’ - Paul Sutton, Head of Media, Culture and Language, Roehampton University, UK Film theory is a notoriously difficult area to teach, partly because of its complexity but also because students are ill-equipped for the reading required by it.

Analyzing a selection of popular British films and stars of post-WWII Britain, Boyce considers the profound anxieties and uncertainties the war had on British life and culture.

CONTROVERSIES Series Editors: Stevie Simkin and Julian Petley The Controversies series comprises individual studies of controversial films from the late 1960s to the present day, encompassing classic, contemporary Hollywood, cult and world cinema. Each volume provides an in-depth study analyzing the various stages of each film’s production, distribution, classification and reception, assessing both its impact at the time of its release and its subsequent legacy. ‘The Controversies series is a valuable contribution to the ongoing debate about what limits should be placed on cinema...Sober, balanced and insightful, these books should help us get a perspective on some of the thorniest films in the history of cinema.’ - Kim Newman, novelist, critic and broadcaster
A Clockwork Orange Peter Krämer, Senior Lecturer in Film Studies, University of East Anglia, UK
‘This is a remarkable and highly unusual book. Krämer turns aside from the endlessly repeated queries about whether a film like A Clockwork Orange might ‘cause people to go out and rape’, and asks instead: how does this film participate in that very debate? What philosophy of human nature drove Kubrick to construct the film? Krämer takes us into the film’s detailed construction, so we can judge its contribution for ourselves.’ - Martin Barker, Aberystwyth University, UK Drawing on new research in the Stanley Kubrick Archive at the University of the Arts London, Krämer’s study explores the production, marketing and reception as well as the themes and style of A Clockwork Orange against the backdrop of Kubrick’s previous work and of wider developments in cinema, culture and society from the 1950s to the early 1970s.

The Passion of the Christ Neal King, Associate Professor of Sociology, Virginia Tech, USA
‘Neal King knows more about the making, marketing and reception of The Passion of the Christ than anyone else. He gives us an elegant and perceptive analysis of the controversies that surrounded Gibson’s film and a sociological portrait of their origins in the competing objectives of polarized groups. King’s book is an essential source on the making and meaning of a film that has been both celebrated and condemned.’ - Stephen Prince, author of Firestorm: American Film in the Age of Terrorism
Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer
Straw Dogs
Shaun Kimber, Senior Lecturer, Media School, Bournemouth University, UK
Stevie Simkin, Reader in Drama and Film, University of Winchester, UK
‘An excellent in-depth analysis…Kimber effectively combines close readings of key scenes with detailed consideration of the history of different versions of Henry and its various engagements with critics, supporters and regulatory authorities.’ - Geoff King, Brunel University, UK
‘A swift, compelling read. Thorough and scholarly without the faintest whiff of academic stuffiness, Stevie Simkin’s study of Straw Dogs summons up the turmoil of the 1960s and 70s and illuminates the highly charged subject of sexual violence on film.’ - Stephen Farber, Film Critic, The Hollywood Reporter
Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1985) is a cold-eyed character study based on convicted murderer Henry Lee Lucas. Shaun Kimber’s examination of the controversies surrounding the film considers the history and implications of censors’ decisions on both sides of the Atlantic, revealing a wide range of social fears relating to film violence.
Straw Dogs ignited fierce debate amongst audiences, critics, and censorship bodies on both sides of the Atlantic on its release in 1971. Stevie Simkin’s study sheds light on the film’s (mis)fortunes at the BBFC in 1971 and tracks its subsequent tortuous journey towards home video release, including extensive research into Peckinpah’s archive.

Over seventy-five films have been made based either on Stephen King narratives or screen/ teleplay scripts that King himself authored, yet this body of work has received very little scholarly attention.

Contributors focus on the most intriguing aspects of these movies - race, gender, and technology - and draw conclusions on their socio-political relevance. January 2012 Paperback

Crime Series in the 1930s and 1940s from the Whodunnit to Hard-boiled Noir Fran Mason, Senior Lecturer in Film Studies and American Studies, University of Winchester, UK

The Music Industries From Conception to Consumption
The Aesthetics of Democracy
Michael L. Jones, University of Liverpool, UK

Uncoding the Digital
Al Jazeera English
Opinion Polls and the Media
Technology, Subjectivity and Action in the Control Society
Global News in a Changing World
Reflecting and Shaping Public Opinion
David Savat, University of Western Australia, Australia
Digital media is having an enormous impact on the world. From the seemingly mundane, like playing World of Warcraft, to posting a message on Twitter or Facebook, to the operation of financial markets, to transformations in science and the economy - digital media continue to revolutionize how people live their daily life. This book challenges how we understand our relationship with our digital machines, and shows how they open up a new capacity for action in the world. A capacity for action that we should no longer simply think of in terms of movement and force, but also in terms of flow and viscosity. A capacity for action that produces a politics of fluids, and finds its expression not only in new forms of social control, but also in a renewed ability for people to engage with the world and each other.

Christopher Pullen, Senior Lecturer in Media Studies, Bournemouth University, UK

Postfeminism, Neoliberalism and Subjectivity
Gender is not a ‘security issue’, but it tells us a lot about how, why and when certain subjects are written as security concerns. Thirteen case studies on violent subjects, reason, and emotion demonstrate different ways in which we understand political violence, security, resistance, power, and agency, and how we make sense of gender.

Bringing Light to Twilight The Utopian Impulse in Latin America
216x138mm 978-0-230-10352-8
Contemporary cultural studies have marginalized 'agency', namely the power of people to shape social life. Here, Stephen Tumino offers a new materialist challenge to these tendencies and articulates an internationalist cultural theory that puts global agency in the forefront of cultural analysis.

cultural and social theory Palgrave Macmillan Memory Studies series Series Editors: Andrew Hoskins and John Sutton The nascent field of Memory Studies emerges from contemporary trends that include a shift from concern with historical knowledge of events to that of memory, from ‘what we know’ to ‘how we remember it’; changes in generational memory; the rapid advance of technologies of memory; panics over declining powers of memory, which mirror our fascination with the possibilities of memory enhancement; and the development of trauma narratives in reshaping the past. These factors have contributed to an intensification of public discourses on our past over the last thirty years. Technological, political, interpersonal, social and cultural shifts affect what, how and why people and societies remember and forget. This groundbreaking new series tackles questions such as: What is ‘memory’ under these conditions? What are its prospects, and also the prospects for its interdisciplinary and systematic study? What are the conceptual, theoretical and methodological tools for its investigation and illumination?

Cognitive Ecologies and the History of Remembering
Collective Memory in a New Media Age
Religion, Education and Memory in Early Modern England
Memory in Culture
Edited by Motti Neiger, Senior Lecturer, Netanya Academic College, Israel, Oren Meyers, Lecturer, University of Haifa, Israel and Eyal Zandberg, Senior Lecturer, Netanya Academic College, Israel
Evelyn B. Tribble, Professor and Nicholas Keene, Research Fellow, both at University of Otago, New Zealand
Astrid Erll, Professor of Anglophone Literatures and Cultures, Goethe University, Germany
This book questions the sociocultural dimensions of remembering. It offers an overview of the history and theory of memory studies through the lens of sociology, political science, anthropology, psychology, literature, art and media studies; documenting current international and interdisciplinary memory research in an unprecedented way.
This book unites research in philosophy and cognitive science with cultural history to reexamine memory in early modern religious practices. Offering an ecological approach to memory and culture, it argues that models derived from Extended Mind and Distributed Cognition can bridge the gap between individual and social models of memory.

Constructing Crime Discourse and Cultural Representations of Crime and ‘Deviance’ Edited by Christiana Gregoriou, Lecturer in English Language, School of English, University of Leeds, UK
Crime and criminals are a pervasive theme in all areas of our culture, including media, journalism, film and literature. This book explores how crime is constructed and culturally represented through a range of areas including Spanish, English Language and Literature, Music, Criminology, Gender, Law, Cultural and Criminal Justice Studies.
‘With this, Starrs has picked up where he left off from his previous trilogy on Japanese literature, providing readers with another informative and challenging study. In so doing, he provides us with fresh insights into a topic that has been restored to a leading place in a variety of debates in recent years: Japan’s approach to the modernist agenda when reassessed against the backdrop of postmodernist discourse. Once more, we are indebted to Starrs for his clear and concise analysis and attention to detail.’ - Mark Williams, Chair, School of Modern Languages and Cultures, University of Leeds, UK An in-depth and comprehensive account of the complex history of Japanese modernism from the mid-nineteenth century ‘opening to the West’ until the twenty-first century globalized world of ‘postmodernism.’ Its concept of modernism encompasses not just the aesthetic avant-garde but a wide spectrum of social, political and cultural phenomena.

Youth Culture and Private Space explores the use, role and significance of personal and private spaces such as bedrooms in the lives of young people. Drawing on extensive research informed by ethnographic methods, Lincoln considers the place of 'the private' in youth cultural discourses, both historically and contemporarily, which until recently has remained largely absent from youth cultural research. The book considers the ways young people use their 'physical' bedrooms to 'mark out' their identities, for example, through the 'things' they have in their bedrooms and through their engagement in the media. Furthermore, Lincoln explores the meaning of personal and private space for young people 'beyond bedrooms', within the virtual worlds of social networking sites. These, she argues, can be considered an extension of young people's bedroom space.

‘This valuable anthology gathers authors from many lands to describe how radio is growing and changing around the world. No matter the language or the programming, radio broadcasting remains a vibrant medium early in the 21st century. This anthology of scholarly papers underlines the many ways radio serves its listeners in both developed and developing nations. Despite a variety of competitors, radio is more than holding its own - not bad as the medium approaches its 100th birthday!’ - Christopher H. Sterling, George Washington University, USA
‘This book on international radio covers it all, from soup to nuts. It is both historical and contemporary. Anyone who teaches international communication, or includes this topic in a broader course, will want to have this book and consider it for student reading.’ - Robert S. Fortner, American University in Bulgaria
