Hamrah A. S. - The Cinema House And The World - Hardcover

Binding: Hardcover
Description: The writings of one of the greatest film critics of his generation on the auteur approach of the French New Wave to a more structural examination of film. One of the greatest film critics of his generation Serge Daney wrote for Cahiers du Cin ma before becoming a journalist for the daily newspaper Lib ration. The writings collected in this volume reflect Daney's evolving interests from the auteur approach of the French New Wave to a more structural examination of film psychoanalysis and popular culture. Openly gay throughout his lifetime Daney rarely wrote explicitly about homosexuality but his writings reflect a queer sensibility that would influence future generations. In regular intellectual exchanges with Gilles Deleuze F lix Guattari and Roland Barthes Daney wrote about cinema autobiographically while lyrically analyzing the transition from modern cinema to postmodern media. A noted polymath Daney also published books about tennis and Haiti's notorious Duvalier regime. His criticism is open and challenging polyvocal and compulsively readable.
