Описание: This book offers insightful analysis of cultural representation in Japanese cinema of the early 21st century. The impact of transnational production practices on films such as Dolls (2002), Sukiyaki Western Django (2007), Tetsuo: The Bullet Man (2009), and 13 Assassins (2010) is considered through textual and empirical analysis. The author discusses contradictory forms of cultural representation – cultural concealment and cultural performance – and their relationship to both changing practices in the Japanese film industry and the global film market. Case studies take into account popular genres such as J Horror and jidaigeki period films, as well as the work of renowned filmmakers Takeshi Kitano, Takashi Miike, Shinya Tsukamoto and Kiyoshi Kurosawa.
Автор: Heidi Craig Название: Theatre Closure and the Paradoxical Rise of English Renaissance Drama in the Civil Wars ISBN: 1009224034 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781009224031 Издательство: Cambridge Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 92930.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Focusing on the production and reception of drama during the theatre closures of 1642 to 1660, Heidi Craig shows how the 'death' of contemporary theatre in fact gave birth to English Renaissance drama as a critical field. While the prohibition on playing in many respects killed the English stage, drama thrived in print, with stationers publishing unprecedented numbers of previously unprinted professional plays, vaunting playbooks' ties to the receding theatrical past. Marketed in terms of novelty and nostalgia, plays unprinted before 1642 gained new life. Stationers also anatomized the whole corpus of English drama, printing the first anthologies and comprehensive catalogues of drama. Craig captures this crucial turning-point in English theatre history with chapters on royalist nostalgia, clandestine theatrical revivals, dramatic compendia, and the mysteriously small number of Shakespeare editions issued during the period, as well as a new incisive reading of Beaumont and Fletcher's A King and No King.

Описание: More than two decades ago, global networks promised great freedom for individual and economic developments and set out to revolutionize the world of communication and information. A critical look at developments since then, however, makes one suspect that a trend has emerged that paradoxically turns the promised freedoms into captivity. The world of communication and information has changed significantly and is on a continuing struggle for credibility. This book identifies principles and reasons that reinforce this view, as well as possible approaches to turn the interconnectedness of the world into a positive force; intended as a contribution to the discourse to lead us into the future. Many philosophical considerations, questions, and problems that have been posited and problems that have accompanied people on their way for thousands of years are also applicable to the modern world. The rapidly changing world meets the human being, who has always asked the same questions.

Описание: The author of A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived investigates what it means to be human-and the ways we are (and aren't) unique among animals We like to think of ourselves as exceptional beings, but are we really more special than other animals? In this original and entertaining tour of life on Earth, Adam Rutherford explores how many of the things once considered to be exclusively human are not: We are not the only species that communicates, makes tools, uses fire, or has sex for reasons other than procreation. Evolution has, however, allowed us to develop a culture far more complex than any other observed in nature. The Book of Humans explains how we became the creatures we are today, uniquely able to investigate ourselves. Illuminating the latest genetic research, it is a thrilling account of what unequivocally fixes us as animals-and what makes us truly extraordinary.
