The Shifting Definitions of Genre: Essays on Labeling Films, Television Shows and Media
ISBN: 9780786434305 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 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. 22 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...

Molly Bell is an eleven-year old girl who used to be a whimsical, sporty type of a child with a zest for living.

Living with "Star Trek" : American Culture and the "Star Trek" Universe
ISBN: 9781845114213 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 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...

Now a Major Motion Picture: Film Adaptations of Literature and Drama
ISBN: 9780742538214 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Going beyond the process of adaptation, Geraghty is more interested in the films themselves and how they draw on our sense of recall. While a film reflects its literary source, it also invites comparisons to our memories and associations with other versions of the original. For example, a viewer may watch the 2005 big-screen production of Pride and Prejudice and remember Austen's novel as well as the BBC's 1995 television movie. Adaptations also rely on the conventions of genre, editing, acting, and sound to engage our recall--elements that many movie critics tend to forget when focusing...

When the first season of Star Trek opened to American television viewers in 1966, the thematically insightful sci-fi story line presented audiences with the exciting vision of a bold voyage into the final frontiers of space and strange, new galactic worlds.

British Cinema in the Fifties: Gender, Genre and the 'New Look'
ISBN: 9780415171588 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the fifties British cinema won large audiences with popular war films and comedies, creating stars such as Dirk Bogarde and Kay Kendall, and introducing the stereotypes of war hero, boffin and comic bureaucrat which still help to define images of British national identity. In British Cinema in the Fifties, Christine Geraghty examines some of the most popular films of this period, exploring the ways in which they approached contemporary social issues such as national identity, the end of empire, new gender roles and the care of children.

American Science Fiction Film and Television
ISBN: 9781845207953 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 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...

The Smallville Chronicles: Critical Essays on the Television Series
ISBN: 9780810881303 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 2001, yet another adaptation of the Superman comic book came to television. Lasting 10 seasons, Smallville took the traditional Superman story and turned it into an American teen action drama about Clark Kent's life at high school--before he donned the famous blue tights and red cape. Instead of depicting Superman's clashes with criminals in Metropolis, the show focused on how Clark first developed his powers and learned to cope with girls, school, and teenage angst. Although largely overlooked by critics and derided by Superman fans who regarded it as too far a departure from the comic...
