Incongruous Entertainment: Camp, Cultural Value, and the MGM Musical
ISBN: 9780822335955 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. With their lavish costumes and sets, ebullient song and dance numbers, and iconic movie stars, the musicals that mgm produced in the 1940s seem today to epitomize camp. Yet they were originally made to appeal to broad, mainstream audiences. In this lively, nuanced, and provocative reassessment of the mgm musical, Steven Cohan argues that this seeming incongruity between the camp value and popular appreciation of these musicals is not as contradictory as it seems. He demonstrates that the films extravagance and queerness were deliberate elements and keys to their popular success.

The Road Movie Book
ISBN: 9780415149372 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Road Movie Book is the first comprehensive study of an enduring but ever-changing Hollywood genre, its place in American culture, and its legacy to world cinema. The road and the cinema both flourished in the twentieth century, as technological advances brought motion pictures to a mass audience and the mass produced automobile opened up the road to the ordinary American. When Jean Baudrillard equated modern American culture with 'space, speed, cinema, technology' he could just as easily have added that the road movie is its supreme emblem.

Telling Stories : A Theoretical Analysis of Narrative Fiction
ISBN: 9780415013871 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume overturns traditional definitions of narrative by arguing that any story, whether a Bette Davis film, a jeans ad, a Jane Austen novel of a Cathy comic, must be related to larger cultural networks. The authors show how meanings and subjectivity do not exist in isolation, but are manufactured by the narratives our culture reads and watches every day. They call for a critical practice that, through the fracturing of texts, can alter the grounds of knowledge and interpretation. This study should interest critics of narrative and culture, as well as students wanting to extend...
