Book Synopsis Interpreting Star Wars by : Miles Booy
Download or read book Interpreting Star Wars written by Miles Booy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upon its initial release in 1977, many critics regarded Star Wars as a childish retort to the mature American cinema of the seventies. Though full of sound and fury, some felt that it signified nothing. Four decades later, the significations are multiple as interpretations of the film's strange imagery and metaphoric potential continue to pile up. Interpreting Star Wars analyses and contextualises the dominant trends in Star Wars interpretation from the earliest reviews, through Lucasfilm's attempts to use its position as copyright holder to promote a single meaning, to the 21st century where the internet has rendered such authorial control impossible and new entries to the canon present new twists on old hopes.

Book Synopsis Consecutive Interpreting by : Alexander V. Kozin
Download or read book Consecutive Interpreting written by Alexander V. Kozin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sheds light on the phenomenon of consecutive interpreting. It combines phenomenological and empirical analyses to build a communication theory of interpreting. The author begins by reviewing mainstream research on consecutive interpreting and then dissociates himself from it, conducting a three-tier analysis of interpreting data. He concludes by presenting an alternative theory of consecutive interpreting. As he makes clear from the outset, a new and combined methodology for consecutive interpreting needs to be constructed to satisfy both the relation of the phenomenon to experience as well as its social foundation. He also stresses the potential within the humanities for wider employment of the phenomenological empirical method. This book will appeal to students and scholars of linguistics, translation, phenomenology, social interaction and communication

Book Synopsis Interpreting Across Boundaries by : Gerald James Larson
Download or read book Interpreting Across Boundaries written by Gerald James Larson and published by Motilal Banarsidass Publ.. This book was released on 1989 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a state-of-the art assessment of comparative philosophy written by some of the leading practitioners of the field. While its primary focus is on gaining methodological clarity regarding the comparative enterprise of interpreting across boundaries, the book also contains new substantive essays on Indian, Chinese, Japanese, and European thought. Comparative or cross-cultural philosophy can be seen as a relative newcomer to the field of philosophy. It has its antecedents in the emergence of comparative studies in nineteenth-century European intellectual history, as well as in the sequence of East-West Philosophers` Conferences at the University of Hawaii, which began in 1939. This book will prove to be of great significance in helping to define a field that is only now becoming fully self-conscious, methodologically and substantively, about its role and function in the larger enterprises of philosophy and comparative studies.
Book Synopsis The Star Wars Heresies by : Paul F. McDonald
Download or read book The Star Wars Heresies written by Paul F. McDonald and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the insatiable public appetite for all things Star Wars, the more analytical side of the saga is all too often ignored. This book offers a new way of seeing George Lucas' space opera--particularly the prequel trilogy, a series never given a fair chance because of constant comparisons to the iconic originals. In the classic style of Joseph Campbell, the trilogy is viewed through the lens of myth and metaphor, revealing a body of work not only worthy of scholarly study but perhaps destined to find therein its home. A wide variety of philosophical and mythological themes are presented and expounded upon, drawing from a rich source of scholars, thinkers, writers, and poets from East and West alike. Heretical or not, the Star Wars prequels are a surprisingly rich source of insight into the saga--as well as the human drama--as a whole.
