Book Synopsis American and Chinese-Language Cinemas by : Lisa Funnell
Download or read book American and Chinese-Language Cinemas written by Lisa Funnell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critics frequently describe the influence of "America," through Hollywood and other cultural industries, as a form of cultural imperialism. This unidirectional model of interaction does not address, however, the counter-flows of Chinese-language films into the American film market or the influence of Chinese filmmakers, film stars, and aesthetics in Hollywood. The aim of this collection is to (re)consider the complex dynamics of transnational cultural flows between American and Chinese-language film industries. The goal is to bring a more historical perspective to the subject, focusing as much on the Hollywood influence on early Shanghai or postwar Hong Kong films as on the intensifying flows between American and Chinese-language cinemas in recent decades. Contributors emphasize the processes of appropriation and reception involved in transnational cultural practices, examining film production, distribution, and reception.

Over a career that has taken him from the squared circle to the silver screen, “The Rock” has entertained countless fans and done his best to give back. Born in California in 1972, Johnson quickly became familiar with the family business: professional wrestling. Both his father and grandfather were wrestling stars, and even his grandmother was involved in wrestling as a promoter. Early on, he participated in football, wrestling, and track at schools in both New Zealand and the United States. After his studies concluded, Johnson decided to play professional football in Canada. Unfortunately, Johnson was cut from his football team just two months into his debut season. Soon after, he followed in his father’s—and grandfather’s—footsteps. He joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in 1996 as a “sports entertainer,” a term that refers to the WWF’s wrestling matches being more like performance art than actual fights. Fans disliked Johnson at first, but once he assumed the character of “The Rock,” he turned into one of the WWF’s biggest stars. In fact, one of Johnson’s signature phrases, “Smackdown,” became so popular that it was added to Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary as a new word! 每位演員的成名之路都不同，但德威恩． 強森走的路卻是其中最獨特的一條。從摔角場到大銀幕的職業生涯中，巨石強森娛樂了無數的粉絲，並竭盡所能地回饋。 強森在一九七二年出生於加州，他很快就熟悉了家族事業：職業摔角。他父親和外祖父都是摔角明星，甚至外祖母也承辦過摔角比賽。早期，他在紐西蘭和美國的學校參加了足球、摔角和徑賽運動。學業完成後，強森決定在加拿大踢職業足球。 可惜，強森加入足球隊第一個賽季才兩個月就被踢出球隊。不久後，他追隨父親和外祖父的腳步。他在一九九六年加入了世界摔角聯盟（WWF）成為一名「體育表演員」，這個詞指的是世界摔角聯盟的摔角比賽比較像是表演藝術，而不是實際搏鬥。摔角迷一開始不喜歡強森，但他一擔任「巨石強森」這個角色後就成了世界摔角聯盟最著名的明星之一。事實上，強森的口頭禪之一Smackdown（擊倒）變得非常熱門，以致於被加進韋伯字典成為新字。 Johnson credits his appearance on the American show Saturday Night Live in the year 2000 with helping him become an actor. Since then, he has gone on to feature in dozens of Hollywood productions, including Get Smart, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, and the Fast & Furious series. He can also be seen in Jungle Cruise, based on the Disney ride of the same name. Even though Johnson never made it as a professional football player, he never forgot his football days at his alma mater. In 2007, he and his ex-wife donated one million dollars to the University of Miami to improve its football facilities. Johnson also has a charity, the Dwayne Johnson Rock Foundation, that works with at-risk and terminally ill children. In addition to this, Johnson has his own movie production company, Seven Bucks Productions. The name comes from the amount of money Johnson had left after his stint in Canadian football. But Johnson’s luck sure has changed since then. Last year, he topped Forbes magazine’s list as the world’s highest-paid actor, earning $89.4 million in the previous year. And perhaps more important than his financial success, Johnson’s fellow actors routinely describe him as energetic, focused, and devoted—three qualities that have helped him greatly on his unique path to the top of Hollywood. 強森認為他能成為演員要歸功於在二○○○年參加美國節目《週六夜現場》。從那之後，他陸續主演了數十部好萊塢作品，包括《特務行不行》、《野蠻遊戲：瘋狂叢林》和《玩命關頭》系列電影。他也出現在《叢林奇航》中，這是根據迪士尼同名遊樂設施改編的電影。 雖然強森從未成為職業足球選手，卻從未忘記在母校踢足球的日子。二○○七年，他和前妻捐贈了一百萬美元給邁阿密大學來改善足球設施。強森還有一個慈善機構「巨石強森基金會」，處理處於危險和身染重病孩童相關的工作。 除此之外，強森還有自己的電影製作公司「七塊錢製作」。這個名字來自強森在離開加拿大足球生涯後剩下的錢。但強森的運氣在那以後確實有了不同。去年，他登上《富比世》雜誌全世界最高薪演員排行榜冠軍，前一年賺了八千九百四十萬美元。而或許比財務成功更重要的是，強森的拍片夥伴經常描述他精力充沛、專注且熱衷於工作——這三項特質在他邁向好萊塢巔峰的獨特道路上讓他獲益良多。 Live Interactive English Live互動英語 NO. 231 July 2020年7月號 4 Live關鍵時事新聞 9 焦點話題 10 大師名作選 Charles 〈查爾斯〉 14 食物起源 The Skinny on Sausages 千變萬化的美味香腸 18 日常好用句 I have a frog in my throat. 我喉嚨不舒服。 19 主題式會話 Talking about Cultural Differences 談論文化差異 22 科學知識 The Secret of How Bats Keep Viruses at Bay 蝙蝠百毒不侵的祕密 26 建築趨勢 What’s in a Skyscraper? 與天爭高——摩天大樓進化史 30 克漏字 Have Your Cake . . . and Eat It! 吃飽來塊蛋糕、滿足你的「甜點胃」！ 32 焦點人物 Dwayne Johnson: Far from Rock Bottom 巨石強森：從摔角選手到電影明星 36 文化生活 Are Subtitles Still a Turnoff for Western Audiences? 看不看字幕，東西大不同！ 40 生活情境對話 Ordering Fast Food 速食點餐英語 •英語聽力測驗 44 旅遊好去處 Yellowstone National Park: Mother Nature's Masterpiece 黃石國家公園：大自然的傑作 48 唱歌學英語 Studying English with Songs: Blinding Lights 威肯：〈Blinding Lights〉 49 閱讀策略 Birds of Paradise: Nature's Beauties 天堂鳥：絕美的化身 55 翻譯練習 Translation Practice 翻譯練習 58 社會議題 Political Correctness: A War of Words 政治正確性的論戰 64 電影快報 63 Movie Trailer English 看預告片學英文 66 General English Proficiency Test 全民英檢中級模擬閱讀試題 73 Chinese Translation & Answer Key 中文翻譯與解答

Book Synopsis Chinese National Cinema by : Yingjin Zhang
Download or read book Chinese National Cinema written by Yingjin Zhang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-08-02 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This introduction to Chinese national cinema covers three 'Chinas': mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Historical and comparative perspectives bring out the parallel developments in these three Chinas, while critical analysis explores thematic and stylistic changes over time. As well as exploring artistic achievements and ideological debates, Yingjin Zhang examines how - despite the pressures placed on the industry from state control and rigid censorship - Chinese national cinema remains incapable of projecting a single unified picture, but rather portrays many different Chinas.

Download or read book China on Screen written by Chris Berry and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In China on Screen, Chris Berry and Mary Farquhar, leaders in the field of Chinese film studies, explore more than one hundred years of Chinese cinema and nation. Providing new perspectives on key movements, themes, and filmmakers, Berry and Farquhar analyze the films of a variety of directors and actors, including Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, Hou Hsiao Hsien, Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Maggie Cheung, Gong Li, Wong Kar-wai, and Ang Lee. They argue for the abandonment of "national cinema" as an analytic tool and propose "cinema and the national" as a more productive framework. With this approach, they show how movies from China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the Chinese diaspora construct and contest different ideas of Chinese nation--as empire, republic, or ethnicity, and complicated by gender, class, style, transnationalism, and more. Among the issues and themes covered are the tension between operatic and realist modes, male and female star images, transnational production and circulation of Chinese films, the image of the good foreigner--all related to different ways of imagining nation. Comprehensive and provocative, China on Screen is a crucial work of film analysis.
Book Synopsis Ecology and Chinese-Language Cinema by : Sheldon H. Lu
Download or read book Ecology and Chinese-Language Cinema written by Sheldon H. Lu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection explores new developments in the burgeoning field of Chinese ecocinema, examining a variety of works from local productions to global market films, spanning the Maoist era to the present. The ten chapters examine films with ecological significance in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, including documentaries, feature films, blockbusters and independent productions. Covering not only well-known works, such as Under the Dome, Wolf Totem, Tie Xi Qu: West of the Tracts, and Mermaid, this book also provides analysis of less well-known but critically important works, such as Anchorage Prohibited, Luzon, and Three Flower/Tri-Color. The unique perspectives this book provides, along with the comprehensive engagement with existing Chinese and English scholarship, not only extend the scope of the growing field of ecocinematic studies, but also seeks to reform the means through which Chinese-language eco-films are understood in the years to come. Ecology and Chinese-Language Ecocinema will be of huge interest to students and scholars in the fields of Chinese cinema, environmental studies, media and communication studies.
Book Synopsis Documenting Taiwan on Film by : Sylvia Li-chun Lin
Download or read book Documenting Taiwan on Film written by Sylvia Li-chun Lin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To date, there is but a handful of articles on documentary films from Taiwan. This volume seeks to remedy the paucity in this area of research and conduct a systematic analysis of the genre. Each contributor to the volume investigates the various aspects of documentary by focusing on one or two specific films that document social, political and cultural changes in recent Taiwanese history. Since the lifting of martial law, documentary has witnessed a revival in Taiwan, with increasing numbers of young, independent filmmakers covering a wide range of subject matter, in contrast to fiction films, which have been in steady decline in their appeal to local, Taiwanese viewers. These documentaries capture images of Taiwan in its transformation from an agricultural island to a capitalist economy in the global market, as well as from an authoritarian system to democracy. What make these documentaries a unique subject of academic inquiry lies not only in their exploration of local Taiwanese issues but, more importantly, in the contribution they make to the field of non-fiction film studies. As the former third-world countries and Soviet bloc begin to re-examine their past and document social changes on film, the case of Taiwan will undoubtedly become a valuable source of comparison and inspiration. These Taiwanese documentaries introduce a new, Asian perspective to the wealth of Anglo-American scholarship with the potential to serve as exemplar for countries undergoing similar political and social transformations. Documenting Taiwan on Film is essential reading for all those interested in Taiwan Studies, film studies and Asian cinema.

Book Synopsis Critical Security, Democratisation and Television in Taiwan by : Gary D. Rawnsley
Download or read book Critical Security, Democratisation and Television in Taiwan written by Gary D. Rawnsley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2001. By examining the way the ruling Nationalist Party (KMT) dominated Taiwan’s three mainstream television stations before the introduction of political reform in the mid-1980s, the book provides an insightful investigation of how the media can be used as an instrument of both political power and emancipation. This new approach challenges many accepted assumptions about Taiwan’s political development, such as the sacrifice of democracy for stability and wealth and recognizes that threats to society often originate within the state itself, rather than from external forces. However, the development of public television also broadened the political agenda, allowing the Taiwanese population to express its will through collective activities and to exercise the power of (civil) society. Taiwan is an exciting case study with which to explore the post-Cold War understanding of Critical Security. A fascinating look at one of the world’s most rapidly developing nations, this book makes a striking contribution to a fresh area of political thought.

Book Synopsis Transmissibility and Cultural Transfer by : Jennifer Dick
Download or read book Transmissibility and Cultural Transfer written by Jennifer Dick and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-11-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edited by Stephanie Schwerter and Jennifer K. Dick, Transmissibility and Cultural Transfer: Dimensions of Translation in the Humanities brings together monumental voices in the social sciences—such as Jean-René Ladmiral from Paris and Peter Caws from Washington DC—to begin to address the Humanities’ specific issues with and debt to translation. Calling for a re-examination of how translations are read, critiqued, and taught in Philosophy, History, Political Science, and Sociology departments, this book provides tools for reflection, bases for reconsideration of given translations, and historical observations on how thought has been shaped across national borders. The volume ends with four case studies—examples from auto-translation in postcolonial literature, cultural issues of translation in Chinese-language cinema, negotiating meaning between linguistically and culturally different audiences in the United States and Lebanon, to verbal-visual questions of translation in marketing to German and French clients. All in all, this book is a comprehensive, compact survey of the cultural and linguistic translation and transmission issues in the social sciences today. Transmissibility and Cultural Transfer: Dimensions of Translation in the Humanities is illuminating and informative.
Book Synopsis Structure, Audience and Soft Power in East Asian Pop Culture by : Beng Huat Chua
Download or read book Structure, Audience and Soft Power in East Asian Pop Culture written by Beng Huat Chua and published by Hong Kong University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-01 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: East Asian pop culture can be seen as an integrated cultural economy emerging from the rise of Japanese and Korean pop culture as an influential force in the distribution and reception networks of Chinese language pop culture embedded in the ethnic Chinese diaspora. Taking Singapore as a locus of pan-Asian Chineseness, Chua Beng Huat provides detailed analysis of the fragmented reception process of transcultural audiences and the processes of audiences’ formation and exercise of consumer power and engagement with national politics. In an era where exercise of military power is increasingly restrained, pop culture has become an important component of soft power diplomacy and transcultural collaborations in a region that is still haunted by colonization and violence. The author notes that the aspirations behind national governments' efforts to use popular culture is limited by the fragmented nature of audiences who respond differently to the same products; by the danger of backlash from other members of the importing country's population that do not consume the popular culture products in question; and by the efforts of the primary consuming country, the People's Republic of China to shape products through co-production strategies and other indirect modes of intervention.
