Little Horrors: How Cinema's Evil Children Play on Our Guilt
ISBN: 9781476666068 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Zombies, werewolves and chainsaw-wielding maniacs are tried-and-true staples of horror films. But none can match the visceral dread evoked by a child with an innocent face and a diabolical stare. Cinema's evil children attack our cherished ideas of innocence and our innocent bystander status as the audience. A good horror film is a scary ride--a "devil child" movie is a guilt trip.
This book examines 24 international films--with discussions of another 100--that in effect "indict" viewers for crimes of child abuse and abandonment, greed, social and ecological negligence, and political and...

ISBN: 9781107412606 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The way deviant women - murderesses, witches, vampires - are perceived and represented reveals much about what a society considers the norm for acceptable female behaviour. Drawing on extensive archival records and published texts, Susanne Kord investigates the stories of eight famous murderesses in Germany as they were told in legal, psychological, philosophical and literary writings. Kord interrogates the role of representation in legal judgment and the way the emancipation of women was perceived to be linked to their crimes.
