Abstract:

This magisterial book offers comprehensive accounts of the professional itineraries of three women in the silent film in the Netherlands, France and North America. Annette Förster presents a careful assessment of the long career of Dutch stage and film actress Adriënne Solser; an exploration of the stage and screen careers of French actress and filmmaker Musidora and Canadian-born actress and filmmaker Nell Shipman; an analysis of the interaction between the popular stage and the silent cinema from the perspective of women at work in both realms; fresh insights into Dutch stage and screen comedy, the French revue and the American Northwest drama of the 1910s; and much more, all grounded in a wealth of archival research.

Abstract:

Jolted Images brings together a large cast of mainstream and avant-garde cineastes, artists, photographers, comics creators, poets, and more, to reflect on a wide range of phenomena from the realms of cinema and visual culture in the Yugoslav region, broader Europe, and North America. Far from a staid monograph, the book takes a cue from filmmaker Du¿an Makavejev, who once wrote that there are times when it is necessary "to jolt art, no matter what the outcome"; to that end, the book infuses its analysis with playful, creative transfiguration of the material at hand.

Abstract:

This book is the result of a doctoral research that sought to analyze the characters of the industrial animation cinema that present characterizations, mannerism, behavior and sexual stereotypes, which create an unknown idea about their sexualities. Animated films, often considered an exclusive product for children, do not directly address sexualities that differ from heteronormativity. For this reason, we call “diverse” those possible characters that are different from the norms of standard heterosexuality, in order to map, analyze, quantify and qualify the purpose of these representations. In the first moment, the concepts of the theoretical Stuart Hall on representational practices capable of producing ideologies, discourses and signs are applied in animation cinema and associated with anthropomorphism, which we believe to be a camouflaged way of representing such characters. Then, we characterize the “diverse” and the reasons for choosing the term, so that we can propose a debate about cinema as an instance capable of inscribing gender norms and how animation cinema acts as a media capable of proposing a cultural specific pedagogy. Then, based on the principle of similarity and difference, we mapped the “diverse” characters present in the history of animation cinema at the main North American studios: Disney, Pixar and DreamWorks. After this process, we analyze and qualify the intention of the representations of the “diverse” in the characters of animated films. Therefore, do not be alarmed when faced with classic characters such as Ursula, Genius, Scar, Timon, Pumbaa, Edna Mode, King Julien and many others who present different facets of sexuality.

Abstract:

Em tempos mais recentes, o estudo da relação entre Literatura e Cinema tem sido colocado sob a égide do termo intermidialidade. As pesquisas de renomados críticos da relação da Literatura com outras mídias traz, sem dúvida alguma, numerosas contribuições às reflexões já consolidadas pela intersemioticidade. A distinção parte de um fenômeno muito interessante de tecnicização da sociedade, levado bem ao gosto dos norte-americanos e ao arrepio dos europeus. Os textos que compõem esse livro respeitam a intermidialidade, que se preocupa com o sistema de transporte de um sentido, mesmo reconhecendo a questão da interferência desse suporte no processo de significação que ele veicula, eles ressentem-se da preocupação com a construção de uma subjetividade por meio de um processo de comparação, um diálogo que jamais abandonou a textura do pensamento.

Abstract:

Raymond Bellour explains the difference between Christian Metz’s semiological approach and his own approach to film analysis, and the degrees by which he became disenchanted with psychoanalysis, despite his debt to Lacan’s notion of the imaginary, the real, and the symbolic. With reference to his analysis of Alfred Hitchcock’s North by Northwest, he proceeds to comment on how he evolved such key notions as “symbolic blockage” (“le blocage symbolique”) and “the undiscoverable text” (also referred to as “the unattainable text” or “le texte introuvable”). He then describes the influence of Anti-Oedipus by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, and his interest in American cinema and filmmakers like Alfred Hitchcock, Michael Curtiz, and Fritz Lang.

Full text

Abstract:

In a work that will force scholars to re-evaluate how they approach Sinophone studies, Wai-Siam Hee demonstrates that many of the major issues raised by contemporary Sinophone studies were already hotly debated in the popular culture surrounding Chinese-language films made in Singapore and Malaya during the Cold War. Despite the high political stakes, the feature films, propaganda films, newsreels, documentaries, newspaper articles, memoirs, and other published materials of the time dealt in sophisticated ways with issues some mistakenly believe are only modern concerns. In the process, the book offers an alternative history to the often taken-for-granted versions of film and national history that sanction anything relating to the Malayan Communist Party during the early period of independence in the region as anti-nationalist. Drawing exhaustively on material from Asian, European, and North American archives, the author unfolds the complexities produced by British colonialism and anti-communism, identity struggles of the Chinese Malayans, American anti-communism, and transnational Sinophone cultural interactions. Hee shows how Sinophone multilingualism and the role of the local, in addition to other theoretical problems, were both illustrated and practised in Cold War Sinophone cinema. Remapping the Sinophone: The Cultural Production of Chinese-Language Cinema in Singapore and Malaya before and during the Cold War deftly shows how contemporary Sinophone studies can only move forward by looking backwards.
