Figures Traced in Light is a detailed consideration of how cinematic staging carries the story, expresses emotion, and beguiles the audience through pictorial composition. Ranging over the entire history of cinema and illustrating his discussion with more than five hundred frame enlargements, David Bordwell focuses on four filmmakers’ unique contributions to the technique. In-depth chapters examine the films of Louis Feuillade, masters of the 1910s serial; Mizoguchi Kenji, the great Japanese director who worked from the 1920s to the 1950s; Theo Angelopoulos, who began his career as a political modernist in the late 1960s; and Hou Hsiao-hsien, the Taiwanese filmmaker who in the 1980s became the preeminent Asian director. For comparison, Bordwell draws on films by Howard hawks, Michelangelo Antonioni, Ozu Yasujiro, Kitano Takeshi, and many other directors. [Taken from back cover.]ISBN: 0520241975ID2: 291

Mizoguchi and Japan / Mark Le Fanu London: British Film Institute, 2005.

JAPAN ; WOMEN AND THE CINEMA ; CRITICISM Summary: Mizoguchi and Japan is the first full-length study for over twenty years of a director hailed by Cahiers du Cinema recently as "the greatest of all cineastes". On the surface such a claim might be considered controversial since, for a majority of Western cinema-goers, the names more usually associated with classic Japanese cinema are those of Kurosawa and Ozu. Mark Le Fanu's admiration for Kurosawa and Ozu is second to none, but here, in his long-awaited new study, he makes the case for placing Mizoguchi at the very pinnacle of Japanese film achievement.[Taken from back cover].ISBN: 1844570576ID2: 291

Engages in debates about what Japanese cinema is, where Japanese cinema is, as well as what and where Japanese cinema studies is
The reality of transnational innovation and dissemination of new technologies, including digital media, has yet to make a dent in the deep-seated culturalism that insists on reinscribing a divide between the West and Japan, even in realms of technological activity that are quite evidently dispersed across cultures. Film and media studies are not immune to this trend. They continue to fret over the "Westernness" of film technologies vis-à-vis the apparently self-evident "Japaneseness" of other modes of cultural production. The main goal of The Oxford Handbook of Japanese Cinema is to counter this trend toward dichotomizing the West and Japan and to challenge the pervasive culturalism of today's film and media studies. This volume addresses productive debates about what Japanese cinema is, where Japanese cinema is, and where Japanese cinema is going at the period of crisis of national boundary under globalization. In order to do so, this volume attempts to foster dialogue between Japanese scholars of Japanese cinema, film scholars of Japanese cinema based in Anglo-American and European countries, film scholars of non-Japanese cinema, film archivists, film critics, and filmmakers familiar with film scholarship.

What is Japanese Cinema? : a history / Yomota Inuhik; tranlated byn Philip Kaffen New York: Columbia University Press, 2014.
Call No: 71(520) INUAuthor: Inuhik, Yomota Place: New YorkPublisher: Columbia University PressPubDate: 2014PhysDes: xviii, 228 pages : illustrated ; 22cmSubject: JAPAN ; KUROSAWA, AKIRA ; MIZOGUCHI KENJI Summary: What might Godzilla and Kurosawa have in common? What, if anything, links Ozu’s sparse portraits of domestic life and the colorful worlds of anime? In What Is Japanese Cinema? Yomota Inuhiko provides a concise and lively history of Japanese film that shows how cinema tells the story of Japan’s modern age.
Discussing popular works alongside auteurist masterpieces, Yomota considers films in light of both Japanese cultural particularities and cinema as a worldwide art form. He covers the history of Japanese film from the silent era to the rise of J-Horror in its historical, technological, and global contexts. Yomota shows how Japanese film has been shaped by traditonal art forms such as kabuki theater as well as foreign influences spanning Hollywood and Italian neorealism. Along the way, he considers the first golden age of Japanese film; colonial filmmaking in Korea, Manchuria, and Taiwan; the impact of World War II and the U.S. occupation; the Japanese film industry’s rise to international prominence during the 1950s and 1960s; and the challenges and technological shifts of recent decades. Alongside a larger thematic discussion of what defines and characterizes Japanese film, Yomota provides insightful readings of canonical directors including Kurosawa, Ozu, Suzuki, and Miyazaki as well as genre movies, documentaries, indie film, and pornography. An incisive and opinionated history, What Is Japanese Cinema? is essential reading for admirers and students of Japan’s contributions to the world of film. -- publisher's websiteISBN: 9780231191630Contents: Note on Names and Film Titles -- Preface to the English Translation -- Introduction -- 1.
