The decade from 2000 to 2009 is framed, at one end, by the traumatic catastrophe of the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center and, at the other, by the election of the first African American president of the United States.

The Films of Werner Herzog: Between Mirage and History
ISBN: 9780415726788 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Given Herzog's own pronouncement that 'film is not the art of scholars, but of illiterates, ' it is not surprising that his work has aroused ambivalent and contradictory responses. Visually and philosophically ambitious and at the same time provocatively eccentric, Herzog's films have been greeted equally by extreme adulation and extreme condemnation. Even as Herzog's rebellious images have gained him a reputation as a master of the German New Wave, he has been attacked for indulging in a romantic naivete and wilful self-absorption. To his hardest critics, Herzog's films appear as...

ISBN: 9780199781706 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Why have certain kinds of documentary and non-narrative films emerged as the most interesting, exciting, and provocative movies made in the last twenty years? Ranging from the films of Ross McElwee (Bright Leaves) and Agnes Varda (The Gleaners and I) to those of Abbas Kiarostami (Close Up) and Ari Folman (Waltz with Bashir), such films have intrigued viewers who at the same time have struggled to categorize them. Sometimes described as personal documentaries or diary films, these eclectic works are, rather, best understood as cinematic variations on the...

Coleridge, Language and Criticism
ISBN: 9780820332406 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Long celebrated as a great aesthetic idealist and champion of the imagination, Coleridge is now beginning to be understood as a literary critic with many other dimensions, with exciting and far-reaching insights into language, and with detailed notions about the psychological, historical, and linguistic demands of the literary experience. In this study, Timothy Corrigan sees Coleridge's criticism as "the product of an actively self-conscious reader, of a precise user of language, and, most of all, of a historical man involved with the demands of his day." Specifically he studies the... Long celebrated as a great aesthetic idealist and champion of the imagination, Coleridge is now beginning to be understood as a literary critic wit... |

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The essay--with its emphasis on the provisional and explorative rather than on definitive statements--has evolved from its literary beginnings and is now found in all mediums, including film.

Muffler men, for example, have become one of the most striking and remarkable of recent folk art creations. From Walla Walla to Daytona, quirky mannikins constructed from discarded automobile mufflers are popping up across America.

The Philosophy of Documentary Film
ISBN: 9781498504515 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 644 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The spirit that founded the volume and guided its development is radically inter- and transdisciplinary. Dispatches have arrived from anthropology, communications, English, film studies (including theory, history, criticism), literary studies (including theory, history, criticism), media and screen studies, cognitive cultural studies, narratology, philosophy, poetics, politics, and political theory; and as a special aspect of the volume, theorist-filmmakers make their thoughts known as well. Consequently, the critical reflections gathered here are decidedly pluralistic and heterogeneous,...
