Download or read book Telecinematic Discourse written by Roberta Piazza and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This cutting-edge collection of articles provides the first organised reflection on the language of films and television series across British, American and Italian cultures. The volume suggests new directions for research and applications, and offers a variety of methodologies and perspectives on the complexities of "telecinematic" discourse a hitherto virtually unexplored area of investigation in linguistics. The papers share a common vision of the big and small screen: the belief that the discourses of film and television offer a re-presentation of our world. As such, telecinematic texts reorganise and recreate language (together with time and space) in their own way and with respect to specific socio-cultural conventions and media logic. The volume provides a multifaceted, yet coherent insight into the diegetic as it revolves around narrative as opposed to mimetic as referring to other non-narrative and non-fictional genres discourses of fictional media. The collection will be of interest to researchers, tutors and students in pragmatics, stylistics, discourse analysis, corpus linguistics, communication studies and related fields.

This book was released on 2014-03-07 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative volume challenges the ways we look at both cinema and cultural history by shifting the focus from the centrality of the visual and the literary toward the recognition of acoustic culture as formative of the Soviet and post-Soviet experience. Leading experts and emerging scholars from film studies, musicology, music theory, history, and cultural studies examine the importance of sound in Russian, Soviet, and post-Soviet cinema from a wide range of interdisciplinary perspectives. Addressing the little-known theoretical and artistic experimentation with sound in Soviet cinema, changing practices of voice delivery and translation, and issues of aesthetic ideology and music theory, this book explores the cultural and historical factors that influenced the use of voice, music, and sound on Soviet and post-Soviet screens.

Download or read book Voices of "The Dead" - Comparing Film and Literature written by Gertrud Schmitz and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2004-03-05 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 1990 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Comparative Literature, grade: very good, Ruhr-University of Bochum (English Seminar), course: Joyce - Dubliners and Protrait Of The Artist As A Young Man, language: English, abstract: In the last paragraph of the introduction it is said what this paper does not do but the exact aim of the study is not stated. This is, of course, not the ideal procedure how a "Seminararbeit" should be written - without having a specific aim in mind. My aim, in fact, was to compare Huston's film and Joyce's short-story in a way that made it possible to express some of the fascinating details of both. I did not know the results that this would lead to. To take the concept of 'point of view,' which exists both in literary and filmic theory, as a basis for comparison lead to a good and surprising result. It offered a way to do exactly what I wanted, that is simply to watch and to read. In this way the different techniques of the film and the story began to crystallize - or rather the way a reader or viewer was lead to an understanding. The result was successful primarily because 'point of view' offers a metaphor which comprises seeing as well as telling and captures a notion of subjectivity as well as objectivity. If one needed to state the aim of the paper the best would be to say that it was not to be lead by an idea but to let the film and the story have the lead and to see how their differences and characteristics would single out and the concept of 'point of view' is a concept which allows one to take up exactly that position as simply either a reader in the story or a viewer in the film.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies of multimodality have significantly advanced our understanding of the potential of different semiotic resources—verbal, visual, aural, and kinetic—to make meaning and allow people to achieve various social purposes such as persuading, entertaining, and explaining. Yet little is known about the role that individual nonverbal resources and their interaction with language and with each other play in concealing and supporting, or drawing attention to and subverting, social boundaries and inequality, political or commercial agendas. This volume brings together contributions by rominent and emerging scholars that address this gap through the critical analysis of multimodality in popular culture texts and semiotic practices. It connects multimodal analysis to critical discourse analysis, demonstrating the value of different approaches to multimodality for building a better understanding of critical issues of central interest to discourse analysis, semiotics, applied linguistics, education, cultural and media studies.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the linguistic nature of American movie conversation, pointing out its resemblances to face-to-face conversation. The reason for such an investigation lies in the fact that movie language is traditionally considered to be non-representative of spontaneous language. The book presents a corpus-driven study of the similarities between face-to-face and movie conversation, using detailed consideration of individual lexical phrases and linguistic features as well as Biber's Multi-Dimensional Analysis (1998). The data from an existing spoken American English corpus - the Longman Spoken American Corpus - is compared to the American Movie Corpus, a corpus of American movie conversation purposely built for the research. On the basis of evidence from these corpora, the book shows that contemporary movie conversation does not differ significantly from face-to-face conversation, and can therefore be legitimately used to study and teach natural spoken language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Companion to World Cinema explores and examines a global range of films and filmmakers, their movements and audiences, comparing their cultural, technological and political dynamics, identifying the impulses that constantly reshape the form and function of the cinemas of the world. Each of the forty chapters provides a survey of a topic, explaining why the issue or area is important, and critically discussing the leading views in the area. Designed as a dynamic forum for forty-three world-leading scholars, this companion contains significant expertise and insight and is dedicated to challenging complacent views of hegemonic film cultures and replacing outmoded ideas about production, distribution and reception. It offers both a survey and an investigation into the condition and activity of contemporary filmmaking worldwide, often challenging long-standing categories and weighted—often politically motivated—value judgements, thereby grounding and aligning the reader in an activity of remapping which is designed to prompt rethinking.

Download or read book The interplay between cinematic devices and plot construction in King Vidor’s "The Crowd" written by Claudia Rumms and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2018-06-13 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2016 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Osnabrück (Anglistik/Amerikanistik), course: Urban Landscapes of Modernity, language: English, abstract: The Crowd dramatizes the plight of an average working man and provides different readings of the film of who is finally responsible for John Sims’ misery. Apart from the narrative itself, the spectator can make his own interpretation of the discourses aroused by the narrative with the help of cinematic style which offers nondiegetic elements and thereby defamiliarizes the viewer with the story. This term paper will focus on the interplay between the cinematic devices and the discourses aroused in the narrative of The Crowd which contribute to the viewer’s insight and his determining of the responsible element(s) for John Sims’ failure. With respect to this, my thesis is: The cinematic devices in The Crowd combined with the discourses aroused in the narrative play an outstanding role in the viewer’s defamiliarization with the story and final understanding of the plot. The paper starts out with a theoretical introduction to narrative construction in film in order to provide the basis for a further analysis. This introductory chapter is further important as it shows that there is an interaction between the audience and the plot of a film, which plays a noticeable role in the interpretation of The Crowd. The subsequent chapter deals with a close analysis of scenes and themes in the film from a spectator’s point of view that depict the intimidating power of mass society, John Sims as a crowd-man and the influence of patriarchy, elements which contribute to John Sims’ failure. As a final step, I will draw a conclusion on the basis of the results from the analyses.

Download or read book Violence, Conflict and Discourse in Mexican Cinema (2002-2015) written by Miriam Haddu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-26 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last two decades have seen dramatic changes to Mexico’s socio-political landscape. A former president fleeing into exile, political assassinations, a rebellion in Chiapas, and the eruption of the so-called war on drugs provide key examples of critical events shaping the nation. This book examines Mexican cinema’s representations of, and responses to, these socio-political moments. Beginning with the definitive year 1994, which saw the Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional (EZLN) declare war on the Mexican government, the early chapters in this book discuss the outcome of these episodes in subsequent years and how they find screen representation. The study then moves on to provide close readings of key filmic texts as reflections of the so-called narco-war and its effects on Mexican society. Focusing on both fiction and documentary filmmaking, this book explores notions of violence, victimhood, and the complex processing of grief in the context of enforced disappearances and the narco-conflict. In addition to examining films made in Mexico, this investigation incorporates the work of three of the nation’s most celebrated transnational directors: Guillermo del Toro, Alejandro González Iñárritu and Alfonso Cuarón. By examining their work on European soil as a comparative exercise, the analyses offer an understanding of the imprints left by warfare and trauma upon the collective and individual psyche, seen from a universal viewpoint. Using rigorous theoretical frameworks and succinct filmic analyses, this book will be essential reading for those interested in Mexican and Latin American film, as well as those working in the fields of Cultural, Screen, and Trauma Studies.

Download or read book Accent in North American Film and Television written by Charles Boberg and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-16 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
