Cinema and the invention of modern life / edited by Leo Charney, Vanessa R. Schwartz Berkeley, California: University of California Press, 1995.
Call No: 403 CINAuthor: Charney, Leo ; Schwartz, Vanessa R. Source: USPlace: Berkeley, CaliforniaPublisher: University of California PressPubDate: 1995PhysDes: vii, 409 pages : illustrations ; 24 cmSubject: BENJAMIN, WALTER ; KRACAUER, SIEGFRIED ; LUMIERE, AUGUSTE & LOUIS ; PATHE Summary: "Casting aside the traditional conception of film as an outgrowth of photography, theater, and the novel, the essays in this volume reasses the relationship between the emergence of film and the broader culture of modernity. The cultural developments and historical transformations that became known as "modernity" were themselves cinematic, according to these leading scholars in film and cultural studies.They link the popularity of cinema in the later nineteenth century to emerging cultural phenomena such as window shopping, mail-order catalogs, and wax museums and show how film was uniquely prepared to reflect the new ways of seeing, thinking, and experiencing." -- taken from back coverNotes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 0520201124Contents: Introduction / Leo Charney and Vanessa R.
