Spaces of the Cinematic Home: Behind the Screen Door
ISBN: 9781138791657 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines the ways in which the house appears in films and the modes by which it moves beyond being merely a backdrop for action. Specifically, it explores the ways that domestic spaces carry inherent connotations that filmmakers exploit to enhance meanings and pleasures within film. Rather than simply examining the representation of the house as national symbol, auteur trait, or in terms of genre, contributors study various rooms in the domestic sphere from an assortment of time periods and from a diversity of national cinemas-from interior spaces in ancient Rome to the Chinese...

Early Ballard
ISBN: 9781531629663 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The first land claim in what would become the city of Ballard was made in 1852, but it wasn't until a ship captain named William Rankin Ballard lost a bet with a business partner and found himself the owner of 160 acres of seemingly worthless land that the city prospered and became the "Shingle Capital of the World." Incorporated in 1890, Ballard grew quickly, thanks to shingle and lumber mills and the Scandinavian fishing fleet. When a horse was supposedly found in the city water supply in 1906, reluctant Ballardites voted to be annexed to the city of Seattle, and the flag flew at half-staff...
