The Study of Sound

Bringing concepts from early film theory into dialogue with the vibrant field of contemporary sound studies, Wild Sound turns an analytic eye and ear to the role of the soundscape in cinema, particularly the way that film soundtracks capture, create, represent, and even critique our sonic environment. 

Listening beyond music and dialogue, this book draws attention to the oft-ignored background soundscape-film's "wild sound"-which plays a quiet but substantial role in determining how film audiences feel about certain places, people, and processes. It explores the relationship between location sound and wider practices of phonographic field recording in the creation of a cinematic sonic environment.

The latter half of the book shifts attention from from the controlled soundscapes of cinema to the relatively chaotic sonic environments of the world around us. Michael Pigott ultimately demonstrates how a theory of cinematic soundscapes helps us develop practical strategies for investigating the sonic environment in our personal and natural sound worlds, beyond the cinema auditorium.

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).

Die Philosophie der Antike reicht von ihren Ursprüngen in der Vorsokratik des frühen 6. Jh. v. Chr. bis zur Schließung der letzten verbliebenen paganen Philosophenschule, der Platonischen Akademie in Athen, durch Kaiser Justinian im Jahr 529 n. Chr. Das vorliegende Lehrbuch gibt eine anschauliche Einführung in die wichtigsten Grundbegriffe, Positionen und Argumente dieser Epoche. Vorgestellt werden zudem prominente Meinungen und Kontroversen aus der Forschung. Ziel ist es, der Leserin grundlegendes Wissen zu vermitteln, das sie dazu befähigt, künftig Fachbeiträge zur antiken Philosophie eigenständig zu verstehen.

Einführung in die antike Philosophie

'Sinister, mysterious and gorgeously realised' KALIANE BRADLEY, author of The Ministry of Time The woman never goes by the same name. She never stays in the same place too long. She never ages. She never dies. But those around her do. When two grieving strangers meet by chance in Osaka airport they uncover a disturbing connection. Jake's best friend and Mariko's twin brother each died, 6,000 miles apart, in brutal and unfathomable circumstances. Each encountered a mesmerising, dark-haired woman in the days before their deaths. A woman who came looking for Mariko - and then disappeared. Jake, who has carried his loss and guilt for a decade, finds himself compelled to follow the trail set by Mariko's revelations. It's a trail that weaves across continents and centuries, leading back to the many who have died - in strange and terrifying and eerily similar ways - and those they left behind: bewildered, disbelieved, yet resolutely sure of what they saw. And, at the centre of it all, there is the same beguiling woman. Her name may have changed, but her purpose has never wavered, and as Jake races to discover who, or what she is, she has already made her next choice. But will knowing her secret be enough to stop her? 'A mesmerising story, brilliantly told' IAN McGUIRE 'Utterly addictive and completely immersive ...The most propulsive thing I have read all year' LARA WILLIAMS, author of Supper Club 'I was completely swept up ... It continues to haunt and unsettle me, in the very best of ways' EMILY MIDORIKAWA, author of Out of the Shadows 'Like nothing else I've ever read ... The kind of story you tell around a campfire as the lights of civilization begin to flicker out around you; a global, intelligent and ambitious archetypal nightmare' KRISTEN ROUPENIAN, author of Cat Person 'Sinister, unnerving and nightmarish. Old Soul will sneak into your dreams and haunt you' CLAIRE FULLER, author of Unsettled Ground

Iconic Filmmakers Series

Wes Anderson&nbsp;celebrates the work of one of the most revered cult filmmaker working in contemporary cinema.

The Iconic Filmmaker and his Work

Wes Anderson

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.
