Brutal vision : the neorealist body in postwar Italian cinema / Karl Schoonover Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 2012.
Call No: 64NEO SCHAuthor: Schoonover, Karl Source: USPlace: MinneapolisPublisher: University of Minnesota PressPubDate: 2012PhysDes: xxxiii, 283 pages : illustrations ; 23 cmSubject: NEOREALISM ; ITALIAN CINEMA Summary: "Film history identifies Italian neorealism as the exempler of national cinema, a specificially domestic response to wartime atrocities. Brutal Vision challenges this orthodoxy by arguing that neorealist films -- including such classics as Rome Open City, Paisan, Shoeshine, and Bicycle Thieves -- should be understood less as national products and more as complex agents of a postwar reorganization of global politics. In his readings on crucial films and newly discovered documents from the archives of neorealism's international distribution, Karl Schoonover reveals how these movies use images of the imperiled body to reconstitute the concept of the human and to recalibrate the scale of human community. Brutal Vision fundamentally revises ideas of cinematic specificity, the human, and geopolitical scale that we inherit from neorealism and its postwar milieu -- ideas that continue to set the terms for political filmmaking today." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9780816675548Contents: Introduction -- An inevitably obscene cinema: Bazin and neorealism -- The North Atlantic ballyhoo of liberal humanism -- Rossellini's exemplary corpse and the sovereign bystander -- Spectacular suffering: De Sica's bodies and charity's gaze -- Neorealism undone: the resistant physicalities of the second generation -- Conclusion

Global neorealism : the transnational history of a film style / Saverio Giovacchini / Robert Sklar USA: University Press of Mississippi, 2012.
Call No: 64NEO GLOAuthor: Giovacchini, Saverio ; Sklar, Robert Place: USAPublisher: University Press of MississippiPubDate: 2012PhysDes: ix, 272 p. : ill. ; 24 cmSubject: NEOREALISM Summary: Intellectual, cultural, and film historians have long considered neorealism the founding block of post-World War II Italian cinema. Neorealism, the traditional story goes, was an Italian film style born in the second postwar period and aimed at recovering the reality of Italy after the sugarcoated moving images of Fascism. Lasting from 1945 to the early 1950s, neorealism produced world-renowned masterpieces such as Roberto Rossellini's Roma, città aperta (Rome, Open City, 1945) and Vittorio De Sica's Ladri di biciclette (Bicycle Thieves, 1947). These films won some of the most prestigious film awards of the immediate postwar period and influenced world cinema.
This collection brings together distinguished film scholars and cultural historians to complicate this nation-based approach to the history of neorealism. The traditional story notwithstanding, the meaning and the origins of the term are problematic. What does neorealism really mean, and how Italian is it? Italian filmmakers were wary of using the term and Rossellini preferred "realism." Many filmmakers confessed to having greatly borrowed from other cinemas, including French, Soviet, and American.
Divided into three sections, Global Neorealism examines the history of this film style from the 1930s to the 1970s using a global and international perspective. The first section examines the origins of neorealism in the international debate about realist esthetics in the 1930s. The second section discusses how this debate about realism was "Italianized" and coalesced into Italian "neorealism" and explores how critics and film distributors participated in coining the term. Finally, the third section looks at neorealism's success outside of Italy and examines how film cultures in Latin America, Asia, and the United States adjusted the style to their national and regional situationsNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781617031229Contents: Introduction: the geography and history of global neorealism / Saverio Giovacchini and Robert Sklar --
