Saving cinema : the politics of preservation / by Caroline Frick New York: Oxford University Press, c2011.
Call No: 110-4 FRIAuthor: Frick, Caroline Source: USPlace: New YorkPublisher: Oxford University PressPubDate: c2011PhysDes: xiii, 215 p. : 24cmSubject: PRESERVATION OF FILMS Summary: "The importance of media preservation has in recent years achieved much broader public recognition. From the vaults of Hollywood and the halls of Congress to the cash-strapped museums of developing nations, people are working to safeguard film from phyisical harm. But the forces at work aren't just physical. The endeavor is also inherently political. What gets saved and why? What remains ignored? Who makes these decisions, and what criteria do they use? Saving Cinema narrates the development of the preservation movement and lays bare the factors that have influenced its direction. Archivists do more than preserve movie history; they actiively produce and codify cinematic heritage. At the same time, digital technologies have produced an entirely new reality, one that resists the material, artifact-driven approach that is the gold standard of preservation in the Western world. As it has become increasingly easy to capture and access moving images, increasing evidence of something many archivists have known for years has emerged: industrial and training films, amateur travel diaries, and even family videos are critical public resources. It has also raised questions about the role of the profession. Is access equivalent to preservation, and, if it is, how should archivists alter their activities? The time is ripe for a reconsideration of the politics and practices of preservation. Saving Cinema is the book to guide that conversation" -- BOOK BLURBISBN: 9780195368116Contents: -- preface -- acknowledgments -- the politics of preservation -- rationales for American film preservation: defining the national -- the American film heritage movement: justifying the national -- international discourse and global film heritage: defending the national -- towards a more inclusive film heritage: challenging the national -- the plurality of preservation -- notes -- index --
