Unruly Catholics from Dante to Madonna: Faith, Heresy, and Politics in Cultural Studies
ISBN: 9780810888517 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. During the Second Vatican Council, the Roman Catholic Church went through a period of liberal reform under the stewardship of Popes John XXIII and Paul VI. Successive popes sharply reversed course, enforcing conservative ideological values and silencing progressive voices in the Church. Consequently, those Catholics who had embraced the spirit of Vatican II were left feeling adrift and betrayed. In Unruly Catholics from Dante to Madonna, scholars of literature, film, religion, history, and sociology delve into this conflict-and historically similar ones-through the examination of narratives...

Emma Adapted: Jane Austen's Heroine from Book to Film
ISBN: 9781433100000 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This work of literary and film criticism examines all eight filmed adaptations of Jane Austen s Emma produced between 1948 and 1996 as vastly different interpretations of the source novel. Instead of condemning the movies and television specials as being -not as good as the book, - Marc DiPaolo considers how each adaptation might be understood as a valid -reading- of Austen s text. For example, he demonstrates how the Gwyneth Paltrow film Emma is both a romance and a female coming-of-age story, the 1972 BBC miniseries dramatizes Emma s world as claustrophobic and Emma herself as...

Ozu International: Essays on the Global Influences of a Japanese Auteur
ISBN: 9781501320040 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Japan and much of Europe, Ozu is widely considered to be one of the finest film directors who ever lived. While Ozu has a strong reputation in the West, his films are not as well-known or widely appreciated in the U.S. as they are elsewhere. A notable exception to this trend is film critic Roger Ebert, who recently wrote that Ozu is one of his "three or four" favorite directors. Also, moving beyond the view that Tokyo Story is a masterful exception in the Ozu canon, Ebert sees Ozu's films as "nearly always of the same high quality." Ozu International will reflect on...
