Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Como si un antiguo tren del Oeste americano nos invitara a avanzar por raíles de papel, dispongámonos a sumergirnos en las páginas de este libro para disfrutar de un apasionante viaje a través del cine. Podemos apearnos en cada estación del trayecto para pasear, sin prisa, por el interior de cada uno de los géneros cinematográficos. En la estación del Drama, exploraremos conflictos personales, sentimientos, emociones. En la siguiente parada, Cine Histórico, contemplaremos hechos relevantes de épocas pasadas. La próxima, Cine Cómico, nos hará reír a gusto con Charlot, Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd, el Gordo y el Flaco y los hermanos Marx... Las carcajadas se convertirán en sonrisas en la estación de La Comedia y así cobraremos fuerzas para lanzarnos con entusiasmo a visitar Cine de Aventuras. To d a v í a sin aliento, de tanta acción, nos dejaremos invadir por la intriga y el misterio en la estación El Thriller. El tren nos llevará luego a los grandes espacios épicos de Cine Bélico y nos conmoveremos con la grandeza humana que puede palpitar en el mayor de los horrores. Después de haber disfrutado de sustos y de situaciones que nos erizan los cabellos en la estación Cine de Terror, alcanzaremos las grandes praderas por las que cabalga John Wayne, el gran héroe americano. Tras el Western, la próxima parada. Cine Musical, nos permitirá disfrutar de elaboradas coreografías, con música, canción y baile. Y, como fin de trayecto, la estación Ciencia Ficción, nos lanzará una llamada de atención sobre asuntos clave del presente, proyectándolos a un futuro imaginario. Al concluir nuestro paseo por los géneros cinematográficos y haber hecho nuestras propias elecciones, comprenderemos que, mientras en los manuales se sigue elucubrando sobre qué son exactamente dichos géneros, en realidad somos nosotros, los espectadores, cuando elegimos ir a ver una del Oeste o de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, o una de terror, o una comedia romántica..., quienes, con nuestras preferencias, le damos sentido a cada uno de ellos. A fin de cuentas, los géneros cinematográficos existen y son lo que son porque el público, el imaginario colectivo, con sus gustos y preferencias, así lo ha decidido. ¡FELIZ VIAJE A TRAVÉS DEL CINE!

Book Synopsis Indiscreet Fantasies by : Andrés Lema-Hincapié
Download or read book Indiscreet Fantasies written by Andrés Lema-Hincapié and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2020-11-13 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pedro Almodóvar may have helped put queer Iberian cinema on the map, but there are multitudes of LGBTQ filmmakers from Catalonia, Portugal, Castile, Galicia, and the Basque Country who have made the Peninsula one of the world’s most vital sources for queer film. Together, they have produced a cinema whose expressions of queer desire have challenged the region’s conservative religious and family values, while intervening in vital debates about politics, history, and nation. Indiscreet Fantasies is a unique collection that offers in-depth analyses of fifteen different films produced in the region over the past fifty years, each by a different director, from Narciso Ibáñez Serrador’s La residencia (The House That Screamed, 1969) to João Pedro Rodrigues’s O ornitólogo (The Ornithologist, 2016). Contributors examine how queer Iberian cinema has responded to historical trauma—from the AIDS crisis to the repressive and homophobic Franco regime—and explore how these films demonstrate a fluid understanding of sexuality, gender, and national identity. The result will give readers a new appreciation for the cultural diversity of Iberia and the richness of its thought-provoking queer cinema. Published by Bucknell University Press. Distributed worldwide by Rutgers University Press.

Book Synopsis Doctoring the South by : Steven M. Stowe
Download or read book Doctoring the South written by Steven M. Stowe and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2011-01-20 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering a new perspective on medical progress in the nineteenth century, Steven M. Stowe provides an in-depth study of the midcentury culture of everyday medicine in the South. Reading deeply in the personal letters, daybooks, diaries, bedside notes, and published writings of doctors, Stowe illuminates an entire world of sickness and remedy, suffering and hope, and the deep ties between medicine and regional culture. In a distinct American region where climate, race and slavery, and assumptions about "southernness" profoundly shaped illness and healing in the lives of ordinary people, Stowe argues that southern doctors inhabited a world of skills, medicines, and ideas about sickness that allowed them to play moral, as well as practical, roles in their communities. Looking closely at medical education, bedside encounters, and medicine's larger social aims, he describes a "country orthodoxy" of local, social medical practice that highly valued the "art" of medicine. While not modern in the sense of laboratory science a century later, this country orthodoxy was in its own way modern, Stowe argues, providing a style of caregiving deeply rooted in individual experience, moral values, and a consciousness of place and time.

Book Synopsis Life Truth in its Various Perspectives by : Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka
Download or read book Life Truth in its Various Perspectives written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is truth? This fascinating spectrum of studies into the various rationalities of our human dealings with life - psychological, aesthetic, economic, spiritual - reveals their joints and calls for a new approach to truth. Putting both classical and contemporary conceptions aside, we find the primogenital ground of truth in the networks of correspondences, adequations, relevancies, and rationales at work in life's becoming. Does this plurivocal differentiation mean that the status of truth is relative? On the contrary, submits Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka, given the universal significance of the crucial instrument of the logos of life, "truth is the vortex of life's ontopoietic unfolding".

Book Synopsis European Film Noir by : Andrew Spicer
Download or read book European Film Noir written by Andrew Spicer and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European Film Noir is the first book to bring together specialist discussions of film noir in specific European national cinemas. Written by leading scholars, this groundbreaking study provides an authoritative understanding of an important aspect of European cinema and of film noir itself, for too long considered as a solely American form. The Introduction reviews the problems of defining film noir, its key characteristics and discusses its significance to the development of European film, the relationship of specific national films noirs to each other, to American noir and to historical and social change. Eight chapters then discuss film noir in France, Germany, Britain and Spain, analysing both earlier developments and the evolution of neo-noir through to the present. A further chapter explores film noir in Italian cinema where its presence is not so well defined. Each piece provides a critical overview of the most significant films in relation to their industrial and social contexts. European Film Noir is an important contribution to the study of European cinema that will have a broad appeal to undergraduates, cinéastes, film teachers and researchers.

Book Synopsis Picturing Argentina: Myths, Movies, and the Peronist Vision by : Currie K. Thompson
Download or read book Picturing Argentina: Myths, Movies, and the Peronist Vision written by Currie K. Thompson and published by Cambria Press. This book was released on 2014-05-28 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Juan Domingo Perón's central role in Argentine history and the need for an unbiased assessment of his impact on his nation's cinema are beyond dispute, the existing scholarship on the subject is limited. In recent decades Argentina has witnessed a revival of serious film study, some of which has focused on the nation's classical movies and, in one case, on Peronism. None of this work has been translated into English, however.This is the first English-language book that offers an extensive assessment of Argentine cinema during first Peronism. It is also the first study in any language that concentrates systematically on the evolution of social attitudes reflected in Argentine movies throughout those years and that assesses the period's impact on subsequent filmmaking activity. By analyzing popular Argentine movies from this time through the prism of myth-second-order communication systems that present historically developed customs and attitudes as natural-the book traces the filmic construction of gender, criminality, race, the family, sports, and the military. It identifies in movies the development and evolution of mindsets and attitudes that may be construed as "Peronist." By framing its consideration of films from the Perón years in the context of earlier and later ones, it demonstrates that this period accelerates-and sometimes registers backward-looking responses to-earlier progressive mythic shifts, and it traces the development in the 1950s of a critical mindset that comes to fruition in the "new cinema" of the 1960s. Picturing Argentina: Myths, Movies, and the Peronist Vision is an important book for Latin American studies, film studies, and history collections.

Book excerpt: Argentine Cinema: From Noir to Neo-Noir examines the phenomenon of Argentine film noir. Beginning with definitions of film noir and its international iterations, the book presents a history of the development of film noir and neo-noir in Argentina (from the 1940s to the present), as well as a technical, aesthetic, and socio-historical analysis of such recent Argentine neo-noir films as The Aura, The Secret in Their Eyes, and The German Doctor. It considers the question of inscription of such classic noirs as Double Indemnity and The Third Man and looks forward to future scholarly work on other Latin American noir and neo-noir films, especially those produced in Mexico and Brazil.
