American Science Fiction Film and Television
ISBN: 9781845207953 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. American Science Fiction Film and Television presents a critical history of late 20th Century SF together with an analysis of the cultural and thematic concerns of this popular genre.
Science fiction film and television were initially inspired by the classic literature of HG Wells and Jules Verne. The potential and fears born with the Atomic age fuelled the popularity of the genre, upping the stakes for both technology and apocalypse. From the Cold War through to America's current War on Terror, science fiction has proved a subtle vehicle for the hopes, fears and preoccupations of a...

My Beautiful Laundrette: Turner Classic Movies British Film Guide
ISBN: 9781850434146 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Described by Stuart Hall as ""one of the most riveting and important films produced by a black writer in recent years,"" My Beautiful Laundrette was a significant production for its director Stephen Frears and its writer Hanif Kureshi. Christine Geraghty considers it a crossover film: between television and cinema, realism and fantasy, and as an independent film targeting a popular audience. She deftly shows how it has remained an important and timely film in the 1990s and early 2000s, and her exploration of the film itself is an original and entertaining achievement.

The Shifting Definitions of Genre: Essays on Labeling Films, Television Shows and Media
ISBN: 9780786434305 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Histories of science fiction often dicuss Fritz Lang's Metropolis as a classic work within the genre-yet the term "science fiction" had not been invented at the time of the film's release. If the genre did not have a name, did it exist? Does retroactive assignment to a genre change our understanding of a film? Do films shift in meaning and status as the name of a genre changes meaning over time? These provocative questions are at the heart of this book, whose thirteen essays examine the varying constructions of genre within film, television, and other entertainment media. Collectively, the...

Death, the Last God: A Modern Book of the Dead
ISBN: 9781782797098 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 227 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Anne Geraghty was a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist when her son, Tim Guest, author of My Life in Orange died suddenly. Her old life ended. She went on a search for her lost son. Where was he? What was he? Did he live on in some other realm? Or had he fallen into the darkness of oblivion? Her search for Tim became an exploration into the nature of death itself. We die as we have lived. Our lives are not like those of a C12th Tibetan, a C15th Cardinal or a Zen monk; we cannot, therefore, simply turn to old maps and myths of what happens when we die. We need a new narrative of death...

ISBN: 9780745605685 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is the first major study of the roles of women in prime time soap operas. In a comparative analysis of British and North American television soaps, Christine Geraghty examines the relationship between the narratives on the screen and the women viewers who make up the traditional soap audience.
Within the structure of many of the most popular soaps, such as Dallas, Dynasty, Coronation Street and EastEnders, the split between public and personal life, reason and emotion, work and leisure is turned into a lynchpin of the plot. The author argues that these themes are also... This is the first major study of the roles of women in prime time soap operas.

Living with Star Trek: American Culture and the Star Trek Universe
ISBN: 9781845112653 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book is a welcome and original contribution to the world of 'Star Trek.' The book not only sets 'Star Trek' in dialogue with ideas and stories of utopia, community, self-improvement, that are central to American culture and history, but goes further to examine the complex ways in which these are taken up and used by 'ordinary' fans, who engage with 'Star Trek' in complex and significant ways. Lincoln Geraghty explores, for example, 'Star Trek's multiple histories and how 'Star Trek' and the American Jeremiad, one of the nation's foundational texts, refer back to the past to prophesy a...
