Download or read book Chinatown Film Culture written by Kim K. Fahlstedt and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-14 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinatown Film Culture provides the first comprehensive account of the emergence of film and moviegoing in the transpacific hub of San Francisco in the early twentieth century. Working with materials previously left in the margins of grand narratives of history, Kim K. Fahlstedt uncovers the complexity of a local entertainment culture that offered spaces where marginalized Chinese Americans experienced and participated in local iterations of modernity. At the same time, this space also fostered a powerful Orientalist aesthetic that would eventually be exported to Hollywood by San Francisco showmen such as Sid Grauman. Instead of primarily focusing on the screen-spectator relationship, Fahlstedt suggests that immigrant audiences' role in the proliferation of cinema as public entertainment in the United States saturated the whole moviegoing experience, from outside on the street to inside the movie theater. By highlighting San Francisco and Chinatown as featured participants rather than bit players, Chinatown Film Culture provides an historical account from the margins, alternative to the more dominant narratives of U.S. film history.

Book excerpt: If there's one thing Clint Adams can't abide, it's cold-blooded killing. So when some greedy claim-jumper lays low his old mining pal in Nevada's bushwhacker territory, the Gunsmith vows to bring the scurvy vermin to justice. But that's not so easy in a corrupt boomtown like Helldorado. Gold-hungry prospectors and hired gunslingers are bad enough—but the sheriff from nearby Austin is even worse! That is, until Helldorado's shapely new mayor gives Clint Adams a shiny silver star... and a free rein to clean up the town—Gunsmith style.

Book excerpt: Clint Adams isn't one to refuse a call for help, especially when it's from the United States Government. Though what the Secret Service tells him sounds mighty odd indeed. They say someone down in the Southwest territory has been training killers-for-hire and the star pupils are the fastest guns alive. And while the Gunsmith knows that fast draws are born, not made, he agrees to check out the rumors. Traveling in disguise and under the name Wes Bellman, it's only a matter of time before Clint's hip-deep in fast guns and faster women...

Download or read book Immigration and Apocalypse written by Yii-Jan Lin and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2024-11-26 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing the metaphor of America as the Book of Revelation’s New Jerusalem, Yii-Jan Lin shows how apocalyptic narratives have been used to exclude unwanted immigrants America appeared on the European horizon at a moment of apocalyptic expectation and ambition. Explorers and colonizers imagined the land to be paradise, the New Jerusalem of the Bible’s Book of Revelation. This groundbreaking volume explores the conceptualization of America as the New Jerusalem from the time of Columbus to the Puritan colonists, through U.S. expansion, and from the eras of Reagan to Trump. While the metaphor of the New Jerusalem has been useful in portraying a shining, God-blessed refuge with open gates, it has also been used to exclude, attack, and criminalize unwanted peoples. Yii-Jan Lin shows how newspapers, political speeches, sermons, cartoons, and novels throughout American history have used the language of Revelation to define immigrants as God’s enemies who must be shut out of the gates. This book exposes Revelation’s apocalyptic logic at work in the history of Chinese exclusion, the association of the unwanted with disease, the contradictions of citizenship laws, and the justification for building a U.S.-Mexico wall like the wall around the New Jerusalem. This book is a fascinating analysis of the religious, biblical, and apocalyptic in American immigration history and a damning narrative that weaves together American religious history, immigration and ethnic studies, and the use of biblical texts and imagery.
