Bloomsbury Adaptation Histories

Noted scholar Imelda Whelehan looks at key adaptations released during this period and considers the impact of social change, film consumption and film tastes, as well as noting the most popular genres at this time. The latter part of the 20th century saw cinema becoming increasingly significant as an art-form, even while its status as 'art' was still openly contested. This installment in the Bloomsbury Adaptation Histories series discusses a rich and exciting period of cinema history: Hollywood in the latter stages of its golden age, releasing masterpiece adaptations such as It's A Wonderful Life (1946), The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948), The Third Man (1949), All About Eve (1950), Rear Window (1954), The Night of the Hunter (1955) and Vertigo (1958).

Cultural Reflections of Loss and Lament

When Cities Fall

Early Modern British and Irish History 1500-1700: Society and Culture in Four Nations takes an innovative comparative approach to the social and cultural history of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales during the period when they came under the rule of a single monarch. This accessible and engaging synthesis will be of use to teachers and students of any or all of the constituent parts of the British and Irish Isles in the early modern period, and will also appeal to anyone interested more generally in this turbulent period.

Within the context of recent debates on the 'New British History', the book looks at the experiences of the inhabitants of the islands and their contacts with their fellow citizens, whether locally or further afield. It explores the construction of ideas about national origins and identities, and considers how ideas about ethnic difference shaped both violent and peaceful interactions between and within nations. The development of competing religious identities is traced, but despite theological differences, many aspects of belief - in its widest sense - were familiar throughout the islands. Likewise, concerns with life from birth to death, with status and reputation, and with being part of families and communities, were common to the populations of different areas.

This will be a key text in British and early modern history for years to come

* Innovative textbook on the social and cultural history of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales during the period when they came under the rule of a single monarch.       * Provides an accessible and engaging introduction to a key     and turbulent     period in British history.

Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts entstand eine materialistische Theorie, die sich mit ökonomischen und sozialen Verhältnissen der Kunstproduktion auseinandersetzte. Mit ihr ging eine Kritik am Kanon einher, die zuvor ausgeschlossene Alltagsgegenstände, Kinderzeichnungen, Volkskunst oder Fotografien als materielle Bedingungen einer Kultur begriff. Sammlungen von Kunstwerken und Artefakten wurden zu Denkumgebungen, um das Verhältnis von Geschichte, Form und Gesellschaft neu zu bestimmen. Wie Material- und Bildersammlungen auf Grundlage theoretischer Annahmen zusammengetragen wurden und auf diese zurückgewirkt haben, diskutieren die Beiträge des Bandes am Beispiel von Frederik Antal, Walter Benjamin, Bernard Berenson, Wilhelm Fraenger, Sigmund Freud, Henri Foçillon, Vernon Lee, Meyer Schapiro und Aby Warburg.

At the beginning of the 20th century, a materialist theory emerged that dealt with the economic and social conditions of art production. This was accompanied by a critique of the previous academic canon, now considering formerly excluded everyday objects, children’s drawings, folk art or photographs as the material conditions of a culture. Collections of artworks and artefacts became contexts of thought leading to a redefinition of the relationship between history, form, and society. The contributions to this volume discuss how collections of materials and pictures were tied to theoretical assumptions and had an effect on thought processes. Examples cited include Frederik Antal, Walter Benjamin, Bernard Berenson, Wilhelm Fraenger, Sigmund Freud, Henri Foçillon, Vernon Lee, Meyer Schapiro and Aby Warburg.

They don't make comedy like they used to . . . From the slapstick comedy of Charlie Chaplin and Stan Laurel, the surrealism of Spike Milligan and Monty Python, and the golden age of political incorrectness helmed by Benny Hill, to the alternative scene that burst forth following the punk movement, the hedonistic joy of Absolutely Fabulous, the lacerating scorn of Jimmy Carr, Ricky Gervais, and Jo Brand and the meteoric rise of socially conscious stand up today: comedy can be many things, and it is a cultural phenomenon has come to define Britain like few others. In Different Times, David Stubbs charts the superstars that were in on the gags, the unsung heroes hiding in the wings and the people who ended up being the butt of the joke. Comedians and their work speak to and of their time, drawing upon and moulding Britons' relationship with their national history, reflecting us as a people, and, simply, providing raucous laughs for millions of people around the world. Different Times is a joyous, witty and insightful paean to British comedy.

Take My Grief Away

The Bengali filmmaker, Ritwik Kumar Ghatak (1925-1976), wrote, produced, directed and/or acted in plays, feature films and documentaries in Bengal during the socially and politically tumultuous period from the late 1940s through the mid-1970s. Why Ghatak? Within the contexts of Bengali, Indian and world cinema, Ghatak is considered an innovative, revolutionary master of the cinematic medium who possessed a singular cinematic sensibility. He composed numerous essays on film and filmmaking in English and Bengali. Dozens of interviews have been recorded that present an artist who was contemplative, outspoken, at times misunderstood, at turns obstinate and contradictory. 

From his first film, Nagarik ("The Citizen," 1953) through his final film, Jukti Takko ar Gappo ("An Argument, a Debate, and a Story," 1974), Ghatak constructed detailed visual and aural filmic commentaries about modern Bengali culture and society. Twice during his lifetime Bengal was physically rent apart - in 1947 with the Partition of India engendered by the departure of the British and in 1971 by the Bangladeshi War of Independence. In Ghatak's films, the ambivalence and contradictions of Bengali society in post-1947, post-Partition, post-Independence India are pointedly portrayed. Against this frequently adverse milieu, Bengal's modern cultural memory, identity, and history are interrogated and continually reassessed in his cinema.
