 Murakami Haruki on Film【電子書籍】[ Marc Yamada ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Murakami Haruki on Film offers a timely look at the cinematic adaptations of Japanese writer Murakami Haruki’s fiction over the past forty years. Films based on Murakami’s work (including Tony Takitani (2004), Norwegian Wood (2010), Burning (2018), Drive My Car (2022), and many more) manifest a contradictory impulse to faithfully capture the author’s literary worlds while expanding and developing these worlds at the same time. Created by directors from Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Mexico, and the United States, among other national traditions, these films demonstrate the way adaptations are fundamentally creative works that say something new about the different cultural contexts in which they appear. Though the creative reworking of Murakami’s literary worlds threatens to distance us from the author and his work, however, this book argues that the very process of “translating” Murakami from one medium to another references the theme of transformation that is central to his work.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,536円 |
 Documentary Film A Very Short Introduction【電子書籍】[ Patricia Aufderheide ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Documentary film can encompass anything from Robert Flaherty's pioneering ethnography ＜em＞Nanook of the North＜/em＞ to Michael Moore's anti-Iraq War polemic ＜em＞Fahrenheit 9/11＜/em＞, from Dziga Vertov's artful Soviet propaganda piece ＜em＞Man with a Movie Camera＜/em＞ to Luc Jacquet's heart-tugging wildlife epic ＜em＞March of the Penguins＜/em＞. In this concise, crisply written guide, Patricia Aufderheide takes readers along the diverse paths of documentary history and charts the lively, often fierce debates among filmmakers and scholars about the best ways to represent reality and to tell the truths worth telling. Beginning with an overview of the central issues of documentary filmmaking--its definitions and purposes, its forms and founders--Aufderheide focuses on several of its key subgenres, including public affairs films, government propaganda (particularly the works produced during World War II), historical documentaries, and nature films. Her thematic approach allows readers to enter the subject matter through the kinds of films that first attracted them to documentaries, and it permits her to make connections between eras, as well as revealing the ongoing nature of documentary's core controversies involving objectivity, advocacy, and bias. Interwoven throughout are discussions of the ethical and practical considerations that arise with every aspect of documentary production. A particularly useful feature of the book is an appended list of "100 great documentaries" that anyone with a serious interest in the genre should see. Drawing on the author's four decades of experience as a film scholar and critic, this book is the perfect introduction not just for teachers and students but also for all thoughtful filmgoers and for those who aspire to make documentaries themselves. ＜strong＞About the Series:＜/strong＞ Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, ＜strong＞Very Short Introductions＜/strong＞ offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,126円 |

 Cinemagritte Ren? Magritte Within the Frame of Film History, Theory, and Practice【電子書籍】[ Lucy Fischer ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞Examines the fascinating ties between Surrealist artist Ren? Magritte and the cinema.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Cinemagritte: Ren? Magritte within the Frame of Film History, Theory, and Practice＜/em＞ investigates the dynamic relationship between the Surrealist modernist artist Ren? Magritte (1898?1967) and the cinemaーa topic largely ignored in the annals of film and art criticism. Magritte once said that he used cinema as "a trampoline for the imagination," but here author Lucy Fischer reverses that process by using Magritte's work as a stimulus for an imaginative examination of film.＜/p＞ ＜p＞While Fischer considers direct influences of film on Magritte and Magritte on film, she concentrates primarily on "resonances" of Magritte's work in international cinemaーboth fiction and documentary, mainstream and experimental. These resonances exist for several reasons. First, Magritte was a lover of cinema and created works as homages to the medium, such as ＜em＞Blue Cinema＜/em＞ (1925), which immortalized his childhood movie theater. Second, Magritte's style, though dependent on bizarre juxtapositions, was characterized by surface realismーwhich ties it to the nature of the photographic and cinematic image. Third, Magritte shares with film a focus on certain significant concepts: the frame, voyeurism, illusionism, the relation between word and image, the face, montage, variable scale, and flexible point of view. Additionally, the volume explores art documentaries concerning Magritte as well as the artist's whimsical amateur "home movies," made with his wife, Georgette, friends, and Belgian Surrealist associates. The monograph is richly illustrated with images of Magritte's oeuvre as well as film stills from such diverse works as ＜em＞The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Eyes Without a Face, American Splendor, The Blood of a Poet, Zorns Lemma, The Island of Dr. Moreau, The Draughtsman's Contract,＜/em＞ and many more.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Cinemagritte＜/em＞ brings a novel and creative approach to the work of Magritte and both film and art criticism. Students, scholars, and fans of art history and film will enjoy this thoughtful marriage of the two.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,895円 |
 Accent in North American Film and Television A Sociophonetic Analysis【電子書籍】[ Charles Boberg ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Drawing on data from well-known actors in popular films and TV shows, this reference guide surveys the representation of accent in North American film and TV over eight decades. It analyzes the speech of 180 film and television performances from the 1930s to today, looking at how that speech has changed; how it reflects the regional backgrounds, gender, and ethnic ancestry of the actors; and how phonetic variation and change in the 'real world' have been both portrayed in, and possibly influenced by, film and television speech. It also clearly explains the technical concepts necessary for understanding the phonetic analysis of accents. Providing new insights into the role of language in the expression of North American cultural identity, this is essential reading for researchers and advanced students in linguistics, film, television and media studies, and North American studies, as well as the larger community interested in film and television.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,979円 |

 Experimental Film and Anthropology【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Experimental Film and Anthropology urges a new dialogue between two seemingly separate fields. The book explores the practical and theoretical challenges arising from experimental film for anthropology, and vice versa, through a number of contact zones: trance, emotions and the senses, materiality and time, non-narrative content and montage.

An international range of renowned anthropologists, film scholars and experimental film-makers engage in vibrant discussion and offer important new insights for all students and scholars involved in producing their own films. This is indispensable reading for students and scholars in a range of disciplines including anthropology, visual anthropology, visual culture and film and media studies.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 7,626円 |

 Illusive Utopia Theater, Film, and Everyday Performance in North Korea【電子書籍】[ Suk-Young Kim ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞"North Korea is not just a security or human rights problem (although it is those things) but a real society. This book gets us closer to understanding North Korea beyond the usual headlines, and does so in a richly detailed, well-researched, and theoretically contextualized way."＜br /＞ ---Charles K. Armstrong, Director, Center for Korean Research, Columbia University＜/p＞ ＜p＞"One of this book's strengths is how it deals at the same time with historical, geographical, political, artistic, and cultural materials. Film and theatre are not the only arts Kim studies---she also offers an excellent analysis of paintings, fashion, and what she calls 'everyday performance.' Her analysis is brilliant, her insights amazing, and her discoveries and conclusions always illuminating."＜br /＞ ---Patrice Pavis, University of Kent, Canterbury＜/p＞ ＜p＞No nation stages massive parades and collective performances on the scale of North Korea. Even amid a series of intense political/economic crises and international conflicts, the financially troubled country continues to invest massive amounts of resources to sponsor unflinching displays of patriotism, glorifying its leaders and revolutionary history through state rituals that can involve hundreds of thousands of performers. Author Suk-Young Kim explores how sixty years of state-sponsored propaganda performances---including public spectacles, theater, film, and other visual media such as posters---shape everyday practice such as education, the mobilization of labor, the gendering of social interactions, the organization of national space, tourism, and transnational human rights. Equal parts fascinating and disturbing, ＜em＞Illusive Utopia＜/em＞ shows how the country's visual culture and performing arts set the course for the illusionary formation of a distinctive national identity and state legitimacy, illuminating deep-rooted cultural explanations as to why socialism has survived in North Korea despite the fall of the Berlin Wall, the collapse of the Soviet Union, and China's continuing march toward economic prosperity. With over fifty striking color illustrations, ＜em＞Illusive Utopia＜/em＞ captures the spectacular illusion within a country where the arts are not only a means of entertainment but also a forceful institution used to regulate, educate, and mobilize the population.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Suk-Young Kim is Associate Professor in the Department of Theater and Dance at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and coauthor with Kim Yong of ＜em＞Long Road Home: A Testimony of a North Korean Camp Survivor＜/em＞.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 8,616円 |

 Robert Altman's Soundtracks Film, Music, and Sound from M*A*S*H to A Prairie Home Companion【電子書籍】[ Gayle Sherwood Magee ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞American director Robert Altman (1925-2006) first came to national attention with the surprise blockbuster ＜em＞M*A*S*H＜/em＞ (1970), and he directed more than thirty feature films in the subsequent decades. Critics and scholars have noted that music is central to Altman's films, and in addition to his feature films, Altman worked in theater, opera, and the emerging field of cable television. His treatment of sound is a hallmark of his films, alongside overlapping dialogue, improvisation, and large ensemble casts. Several of his best-known films integrate musical performances into the central plot, including ＜em＞Nashville＜/em＞ (1975), ＜em＞Popeye＜/em＞ (1980), ＜em＞Short Cuts＜/em＞ (1993), ＜em＞Kansas City＜/em＞ (1996), ＜em＞The Company＜/em＞ (2003) and ＜em＞A Prairie Home Companion＜/em＞ (2006), his final film. Even such non-musicals as ＜em＞McCabe and Mrs. Miller＜/em＞ (1971) have been described as, in fellow director and prot?g? Paul Thomas Anderson's evocative phrase, as "musicals without people singing." ＜em＞Robert Altman's Soundtracks＜/em＞ considers Altman's celebrated, innovative uses of music and sound in several of his most acclaimed and lesser-known works. In so doing, these case studies serve as a window not only into Altman's considerable and varied output, but also the changing film industry over nearly four decades, from the heyday of the New Hollywood in the late 1960s through the "Indiewood" boom of the 1990s and its bust in the early 2000s. As its frame, the book considers the continuing attractions of auteurism inside and outside of scholarly discourse, by considering Altman's career in terms of the director's own self-promotion as a visionary and artist; the film industry's promotion of Altman the auteur; the emphasis on Altman's individual style, including his use of music, by the director, critics, scholars, and within the industry; and the processes, tensions, and boundaries of collaboration.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 7,610円 |
 Celluloid Ceiling Women Film Directors Breaking Through【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞An extensive overview of female film directors worldwide, showing how they are breaking through the 'Celluloid Ceiling', and succeeding in a still very male-dominated industry. The book contains exclusive interviews with women film directors, explores the impact of digital technology, and reaches some surprising conclusions.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Now that Kathryn Bigelow has made history as the first woman to win an Oscar for directing, we ask whether this is a new era for women filmmakers. This unique international overview highlights emerging women directors and groundbreaking pioneers, and provides a one-stop guide to the leading film directors of the 21st century, and the people who inspired them.＜/p＞ ＜p＞From the blockbusters of the Hollywood studios to emerging voices from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Laos, we learn of women making films in traditionally male-dominated areas such as action, fantasy and horror. There are contributions from countries with film industries in every state from nascent to mature, and this book demonstrates how economic and technological change is creating new opportunities for women film directors everywhere.＜/p＞ ＜p＞***** "BEST BOOK ON WOMEN DIRECTORS DUE TO ITS GLOBAL OVERVIEW" - Diane, Amazon＜/p＞ ＜p＞***** "Gabrielle Kelly and Cheryl Robson have crafted a watershed work. CELLULOID CEILING is essential reading for anyone who wants to know how women directors are helping reshape filmmaking." - D.A. Morris, Amazon＜/p＞ ＜p＞***** "This book is an essential resource for anyone tracking the inspiring work being done by women film directors from around the world." - UCF Film＜/p＞ ＜p＞"The level of public consciousness about the barriers faced by female filmmakers is higher than it has ever been. Despite this, the discussion more often than not centres around North America and to a lesser extent, Europe, Australia and New Zealand (and I am guilty as charged). This is perfectly understandable, but clearly women do make films outside of these countries, and it can be illuminating to consider how their experiences reflect or differ from those with which we are more familiar.＜/p＞ ＜p＞To this end, the arrival of a new book, "The Celluloid Ceiling," could not be more timely. Edited by Gabrielle Kelly and Cheryl Robson, it takes a purposefully global overview of the status quo and in doing so provides some fascinating stories and insights, reminding us of what is lost when we limit the discussion to Anglophone directors."＜/p＞ ＜p＞- Matthew Hammett Knott, ＜em＞indiewire＜/em＞＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 550円 |

 Screening Transcendence Film under Austrofascism and the Hollywood Hope, 1933-1938【電子書籍】[ Robert Dassanowsky ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞During the 1930s, Austrian film production companies developed a process to navigate the competing demands of audiences in Nazi Germany and those found in broader Western markets. In ＜em＞Screening Transcendence＜/em＞, film historian Robert Dassanowsky explores how Austrian filmmakers during the Austrofascist period (1933?1938) developed two overlapping industries: "Aryanized" films for distribution in Germany, its largest market, and "Emigrantenfilm," which employed ?migr? and Jewish talent that appealed to international audiences.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Through detailed archival research in both Vienna and the United States, Dassanowsky reveals what was culturally, socially, and politically at stake in these two simultaneous and overlapping film industries. Influenced by French auteurism, admired by Italian cinephiles, and ardently remade by Hollywood, these period Austrian films demonstrate a distinctive regional style mixed with transnational influences.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Combining brilliant close readings of individual films with thoroughly informed historical and cultural observations, Dassanowsky presents the story of a nation and an industry mired in politics, power, and intrigue on the brink of Nazi occupation.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,408円 |

 Chris Marker Early Film Writings【電子書籍】[ Chris Marker ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞Formative writings by French avant-garde filmmaker Chris Marker＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞It is hard to imagine French cinema without ＜em＞La Jet?e＜/em＞ (1962), the time-travel short feature by the reclusive French filmmaker Christian Fran?ois Bouche-Villeneuve, better known as Chris Marker. He not only influenced artists ranging from David Bowie to J. G. Ballard but also inspired the cult film ＜em＞12 Monkeys＜/em＞. Marker’s influence expanded beyond his own films through his writings for the French monthly ＜em＞Esprit＜/em＞ as well as anthologies and newly founded film publications.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This first English translation of Marker’s early writings on film brings together reviews and essays, published between 1948 and 1955, that span the topics of film style, adaptation, and ideology, as well as animation and the debates surrounding 3-D and wide-screen technologies, ranging from late silent-era films to postwar Hollywood’s efforts to contend with the rise of television. Readers will find commentary on Laurence Olivier’s 1944 screen adaptation of ＜em＞Henry V,＜/em＞ a scathing review of Robert Montgomery’s ＜em＞Lady in the Lake＜/em＞ (1947), critiques of Walt Disney productions, a discussion of the pitfalls of prioritizing commercial success over aesthetic values, and more.＜/p＞ ＜p＞An indispensable resource for cinephiles and scholars alike, these texts document the emergence of Marker’s critical voice and situate him alongside such contemporaries as Andr? Bazin and Eric Rohmer, as well as the future French New Wave figures Jean-Luc Godard and Fran?ois Truffaut. They show how his remarks on individual films open onto his engagement with films as social and cultural phenomena.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,912円 |

 Screens of Blood A Critical Approach to Film and Television Violence【電子書籍】[ Gregory Desilet ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Civilization seems to move ever more toward the power of words over weapons. But many people, especially Americans, still believe wrongs in life can be righted with a fist or a gun or a bomb. Cultural mythology lags reality and continues to send the message of regeneration through violence. But the transition to a healthier mythology is already underway and can be seen in the strength of an alternative trend in depictions of violence in storytelling.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book examines this trend by comparing examples drawn from film and television with the traditional popular dramatic approach--reflecting and promoting a culture of violence. This comparison shows that attitudes toward conflict in drama are a key indicator of a shift in awareness of violence in society. The book concludes with an account of increasing challenges confronting the individual in today's world and the necessity for individual producers and consumers to take greater responsibility for their choices--which shape culture through omnipresent and profoundly influential screen technology.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,447円 |

 Double Visions, Double Fictions The Doppelg?nger in Japanese Film and Literature【電子書籍】[ Baryon Tensor Posadas ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞A fresh take on the doppleg?nger and its place in Japanese film and literatureーpast and present＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Since its earliest known use in German Romanticism in the late 1700s, the word ＜em＞Doppelg?nger＜/em＞ (double-walker) can be found throughout a vast array of literature, culture, and media. This motif of doubling can also be seen traversing historical and cultural boundaries. ＜em＞Double Visions, Double Fictions＜/em＞ analyzes the myriad manifestations of the doppelg?nger in Japanese literary and cinematic texts at two historical junctures: the interwar period of the 1920s and 1930s and the present day.＜/p＞ ＜p＞According to author Baryon Tensor Posadas, the doppelg?nger marks the intersection of the historical impact of psychoanalytic theory, the genre of detective fiction in Japan, early Japanese cinema, and the cultural production of Japanese colonialism. He examines the doppelg?nger’s appearance in the works of Edogawa Rampo, Tanizaki Jun’ichiro, and Akutagawa Ryunosuke, as well as the films of Tsukamoto Shin’ya and Kurosawa Kiyoshi, not only as a recurrent motif but also as a critical practice of concepts. Following these explorations, Posadas asks: What were the social, political, and material conditions that mobilized the desire for the doppelg?nger? And how does the doppleg?nger capture social transformations taking place at these historical moments?＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Double Visions, Double Fictions＜/em＞ ultimately reveals how the doppelg?nger motif provides a fascinating new backdrop for understanding the enmeshment of past and present.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,582円 |
 The Baseball Film A Cultural and Transmedia History【電子書籍】[ Aaron Baker ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Baseball has long been viewed as the Great American Pastime, so it is no surprise that the sport has inspired many Hollywood films and television series. But how do these works depict the game, its players, fans, and place in American society?＜/p＞ ＜p＞This study offers an extensive look at nearly one hundred years of baseball-themed movies, documentaries, and TV shows. Film and sports scholar Aaron Baker examines works like ＜em＞A League of their Own＜/em＞ (1992) and ＜em＞Sugar＜/em＞ (2008), which dramatize the underrepresented contributions of female and immigrant players, alongside classic baseball movies like ＜em＞The Natural＜/em＞ that are full of nostalgia for a time when native-born white men could use the game to achieve the American dream. He further explores how biopics have both mythologized and demystified such legendary figures as Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Jackie Robinson and Fernando Valenzuela.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞The Baseball Film＜/em＞ charts the variety of ways that Hollywood presents the game as integral to American life, whether showing little league as a site of parent-child bonding or depicting fans’ lifelong love affairs with their home teams. Covering everything from ＜em＞Bull Durham＜/em＞ (1988) to ＜em＞The Bad News Bears＜/em＞ (1976), this book offers an essential look at one of the most cinematic of all sports.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,708円 |
 Fat on Film Gender, Race and Body Size in Contemporary Hollywood Cinema【電子書籍】[ Ms Barbara Plotz ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Over the last two decades, fatness has become the focus of ubiquitous negative rhetoric, in the USA and beyond, presented under the cover of the medicalized ''war against the obesity epidemic''. In ＜em＞Fat on Film＜/em＞, Barbara Plotz provides a critical analysis of the cinematic representation of fatness during this timeframe, specifically in contemporary Hollywood cinema, with an emphasis on the intersection of gender, race and fatness. The analysis is based on around 50 films released since 2000 and includes examples such as ＜em＞Transformers＜/em＞ (2007), ＜em＞Precious＜/em＞ (2009), ＜em＞Kung Fu Panda＜/em＞ (2008), ＜em＞Paul Blart＜/em＞ (2009)and ＜em＞Pitch Perfect＜/em＞ (2012).Plotz maps the common cinematic tropes of fatness and also shows how commonplace notions of fatness that are part of the current ''obesity epidemic'' discourse are reflected in these tropes. In this original study, Plotz brings critical attention to the politics of fat representation, a topic that has so far received little attention within film and cinema studies.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 5,701円 |

 Seeing Through Music Gender and Modernism in Classic Hollywood Film Scores【電子書籍】[ Peter Franklin ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Hollywood film music is often mocked as a disreputably 'applied' branch of the art of composition that lacks both the seriousness and the quality of the classical or late-romantic concert and operatic music from which it derives. Its composers in the 1930s and '40s were themselves often scornful of it and aspired to produce more 'serious' works that would enhance their artistic reputation. In fact the criticism of film music as slavishly descriptive or manipulatively over-emotional has a history that is older than film - it had even been directed at the relatively popular operatic and concert music written by some of the ?migr? Hollywood composers themselves before they had left Europe. There, as subsequently in America, such criticism was promoted by the developing project of Modernism, whose often high-minded opposition to mass culture used polarizing language that drew, intentionally or not, upon that of gender difference. Regressive, late-romantic music, the old argument ran, was -- as women were believed to be -- emotional, irrational, and lacking in logic. This book seeks to level the critical playing field between film music and "serious music," reflecting upon gender-related ideas about music and modernism as much as about film. Peter Franklin broaches the possibility of a history of twentieth-century music that would include, rather than marginalize, film music -- and, indeed, the scores of a number of the major Hollywood movies discussed here, like ＜em＞The Bride of Frankenstein, King Kong, Rebecca, Gone With The Wind, Citizen Kane＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Psycho＜/em＞. In doing so, he brings more detailed music-historical knowledge to bear upon cinema music, often discussed as a unique and special product of film, and also offers conclusions about the problematic aspects of musical modernism and some arguably liberating aspects of "late-romanticism."＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 4,791円 |
