Civil rights, women's liberation, and gay rights further emerged as significant social issues. Free love was celebrated even as the decade was marked by assassinations, mass murders, and social unrest. At the same time, American cinema underwent radical change as...

Originally released in 1998, "Documenting the Documentary "responded to a scholarly landscape in which documentary film was largely understudied and undervalued aesthetically, and analyzed instead through issues of ethics, politics, and film technology.

Planks of Reason: Essays on the Horror Film
ISBN: 9780810850132 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The original edition of Planks of Reason was the first academic critical anthology on horror. In retrospect, it appeared as a kind of homage to the "golden age" of the American horror film, as this genre played an increasing role in film culture and American life. The original material represented the history of the genre through the early 1980s and is a crucial part of the book's value, then and now. The first edition helped legitimize academic writing on the horror genre by addressing breakthrough works of such directors as John Carpenter, Tobe Hooper, George Romero, David Cronenberg, and...

ISBN: 9780292772458 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 560 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "The Dread of Difference is a classic.

ISBN: 9781477311080 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Much of the writing in film studies published today can be understood as genre criticism, broadly speaking. And even before film studies emerged as an academic discipline in the 1970s, cultural observers within and beyond the academy were writing about genre films and making fascinating attempts to understand their conventions and how they speak to, for, and about the culture that produces them. While this early writing on genre film was often unsystematic, impressionistic, journalistic, and judgmental, it nonetheless produced insights that remain relevant and valuable...
