Electric Dreamland: Amusement Parks, Movies, and American Modernity
ISBN: 9780231156615 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Amusement parks were the playgrounds of the working class in the early twentieth century, combining numerous, mechanically-based spectacles into one unique, modern cultural phenomenon. Lauren Rabinovitz describes the urban modernity engendered by these parks and their media, encouraging ordinary individuals to sense, interpret, and embody a burgeoning national identity. As industrialization, urbanization, and immigration upended society, amusement parks tempered the shocks of racial, ethnic, and cultural conflict while shrinking the distinctions between gender and class.

ISBN: 9780822332411 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Digital culture is often characterized as radically breaking with past technologies, practices, and ideologies rather than as reflecting or incorporating them.

Looking at a broad range of technologies, including photography, print and digital media, heat engines, stereographs, and medical imaging, the contributors present a number of different perspectives from which to reflect on the nature of...

Points of Resistance
ISBN: 9780252071249 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In detailing the relationship of three women filmmakers' lives and films to the changing institutions of the post-World War II era, Lauren Rabinovitz has created the first feminist social history of the North American avant-garde cinema. At a time when there were few women directors in commercial films, the postwar avant-garde movement offered an opportunity. Rabinovitz argues that avant-garde cinema, open to women because of its marginal status in the art world, included women as filmmakers, organizers, and critics. Focusing on Maya Deren, Shirley Clarke, and Joyce Wieland, Rabinovitz...

City Politics and Planning
ISBN: 9780202309910 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume discusses some of the factors determining the political impact of the city planner on community decision-making.

She also uses a reanalysis of an attitude survey of U.S. planning directors, as well as a synthesis of previous studies. The materials are presented comparatively, thus enabling the reader to identify major themes in the broad and, until now, largely uncharted area of the interrelationship of politics...
