America on Film: Modernism, Documentary, and a Changing America
ISBN: 9780521810920 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This study examines a selection of films made in the last quarter of the twentieth century in an effort to trace how the notion of "American" has changed drastically from that portrayed in American cinema up to the 1950s. In works such as Mississippi Masala, Lone Star, Malcolm X, Raging Bull, When We Were Kings and Bugsy Sam Girgus finds a new and ethnically varied array of characters that embody American values, ideals and conflicts. He charts these changes through analysis of cinematic tensions between fiction, documentary and modernism.

The Films of Woody Allen
ISBN: 9780521810913 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Sam Girgus argues that Allen has consistently been on the cutting edge of contemporary critical and cultural consciousness. Allen continues to challenge notions of authorship, narrative, perspective, character, theme, ideology, gender and sexuality. This revised and updated edition includes two new chapters that examine Allen's work since 1992. Girgus thoughtfully asserts that the scandal surrounding Allen's personal life in the early 1990s has altered his image in ways that reposition moral consciousness in his work.

The Law of the Heart: Individualism and the Modern Self in American Literature
ISBN: 9780292739697 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Law of the Heart is a vigorous challenge to the prevailing concept of the "antidemocratic" image of the self in the American literary and cultural tradition. Sam B. Girgus counters this interpretation and attempts to develop a new understanding of democratic individualism and liberal humanism in American literature under the rubric of literary modernism. The image of the individual self who retreats inward, conforming to a distorted "law of the heart," emerges from the works of such writers as Cooper and Poe and composer Charles Ives. Yet, as Girgus shows, other... The Law of the Heart is a vigorous challenge to the prevailing concept of the "antidemocratic" image of the self in the American liter... |
