Post-Westerns: Cinema, Region, West
ISBN: 9780803234765 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the post-World War II period, the Western, like America s other great film genres, appeared to collapse as a result of revisionism and the emergence of new forms. Perhaps, however, as theorists like Gilles Deleuze suggest, it remains, simply maintaining its empty frame. Yet this frame is far from empty, as Post-Westerns shows us: rather than collapse, the Western instead found a new form through which to scrutinize and question the very assumptions on which the genre was based. Employing the ideas of critics such as Deleuze, Jacques Derrida, and Jacques Ranciere, Neil...

ISBN: 9781550024722 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Many men today feel set adrift from the notion of themselves as "father." Times have changed, and the old, familiar, traditional models of parenting no longer work. Society has not yet evolved a strong and workable new model of parenting, or, in particular, of fathering. Dr. Neil Campbell believes the answer to the question "what is an involved father?" can be found within the experiences and stories of our own lives. In this book, he takes us into his life, first as a son, then as a father, sharing some of the profound insights he learned along the way. Many men today feel set adrift from the notion of themselves as "father." Times have changed, and the old, familiar, traditional models of parentin... |

Affective Critical Regionality offers a new approach to developing a sharper, more nuanced understanding of the relations between place, space, memory and affect.

This book uses affective critical regionality to enable a re-valuing of the...

ISBN: 9780803243934 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Is the American West in Sergio Leone's "spaghetti westerns" the same American West we find in Douglas Coupland's Generation X? In Jim Jarmusch's movies? In Calexico's music? Or is the American West, as this book tells us, a constantly moving, mutating idea within a complex global culture? And what, precisely (or better yet, imprecisely) does it mean? Using Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari's concept of the rhizome, Neil Campbell shows how the West (or west-ness) continually breaks away from a mainstream notion of American "rootedness" and renews and transforms itself in various...
