Literature and film / Robert Richardson Bloomington: Indiana University Press, c1969.

DICKENS, CHARLES ; ADAPTATIONS. SHAKESPEARE, WILLIAM ; LITERATURE AND THE CINEMA ; POETRY AND THE CINEMA ; AGEE, JAMES ; EISENSTEIN, SERGEI M. ; FELLINI, FEDERICO ; GRIFFITH, DAVID WARK Summary: "Beginning with the simple but possibly crucial observation that, in general, literature and film are storytelling arts, Mr. Richardson presents a lucid and straightforward analysis arguing that film and literature are not the entirely different, antithetical disciplines that they are widely held to be. He shows clearly the relationship of film to literature, outlining differences as well as similarities, and common goals as well as divergent aims appropriate to the two arts, demonstrating how each form and its associated criticism is frequently able to illuminate and enliven the other. A film's consciousness sharpens the reader's alertness to the visual and aural qualities that mark much great writing, and literary training, in turn, adds depth and perspective to appreciation of film. Mr. Richardson goes on to present some of the literary influences, such as the writings Dickens and Flaubert, that have significantly affected film since the era of D.W. Griffith, and he discusses film's major influences on modern literature. The author concludes with an extended exploration of the relationship of film to poetry, suggesting that while the two forms have been concerned with similar thematic material and make use of similar techniques, film has dealt more significantly with the question of how to find a humane, noncoercive order in life.Notes: Bibliography: p. 133-142ISBN: 0253148456LON: 72085098; 589352

Adams Sitney's Modernist Montage traces a history of modernism in cinema and provides compelling readings of a wide range of classic films made between 1925 and 1980 by such filmmakers as Carl Dreyer, Robert Bresson, Ingmar Bergman, and Stan Brakhage. In this provocative investigation, Sitney explores various theories of vision by examining the sometimes neglected texts of Maurice Blanchot, Charles Olson, and Gertrude Stein and by offering a bold interpretation of the relationship between literature and film." - taken from back coverNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 239-246) and index.ISBN: 0231071833Contents: 1.
