A History In Objects

This compelling illustrated history in objects traces Japan's complex past through its material culture. Over 350 artifacts--from the everyday to the sacred--highlight significant moments and themes from ancient times until the present, including religion and culture, agriculture and industry, urbanization and immigration, and politics and trade. This ambitious visual account, spanning over fifteen thousand years of history, examines the materials, ideas, and cross-cultural connections that continue to shape Japan.Historian Angus Lockyer reveals the stories behind an intriguing selection of objects from the British Museum Collection. The book explores the history of the region through artifacts, from the lengthy prehistoric record, through the rise of Buddhism and a military elite in Japan's classical and medieval periods, to the economic and cultural developments of the early modern and modern eras.Ancient flame pots and jewelry, textiles and armor, folding screens and contemporary manga provide glimpses of the lives of farmers and merchants, medieval warriors, and modern women. A wide range of ceramics and sculpture, metalwork and lacquerware, paintings, prints, and textiles provide a rich and compelling portrait of a society and culture that occupies a special place in the imagination of its citizens and visitors.

Topics and Issues in National Cinema

The Settled Screen: Landscape and National Identity in New Zealand Cinema is the first title to explore the relationship between the representation of landscape and the development of both a national cinema and a national identity. Through the early years of New Zealand's cinema, prior to any formalized governmental support, those few feature length narrative films repeated wholesale the modes of representing the landscape and its inhabitants, while the developing documentary and travelogue industries would construct the fantasy of 'Maoriland' with New Zealand becoming internationally known as a green paradise, a Pacific idyll with an exotic, tamed, indigenous population. This precursor of the now contemporary 'Brand New Zealand' - itself a modern, politically-corrected version of these earlier narratives - would be adjusted and amended over time, especially with the formation of the New Zealand Film Commission in the late 1970s, but never entirely discarded. Beginning with a discussion on films in which landscape - and particularly the colonial or settler landscapes - have been represented in other Western cinemas, like The Searchers and Thelma &amp; Louise, Wilson compares in indigenous films like Whale Rider, To Love a Maori and The Piano to exemplify the simultaneous strands of New Zealand cinema: a way of marketing the country based on the success of such spectacular films as Peter Jackson's Tolkien epics, and the simultaneous attempts by Maori, immigrant and minority filmmakers to find a way to represent other stories in this land without recourse to the tropes of a by-now dominant national industry.

Feminist Media Histories

Archiving the Past&nbsp;uncovers&nbsp;the story of the women in&nbsp;France who, from the 1920s to the 1970s, played critical roles in the production of global cinema's history: as&nbsp;archivists&nbsp;charged with collecting films and other materials, as&nbsp;witnesses&nbsp;tasked with remembering their own film careers, and as&nbsp;activists&nbsp;committed to recovering women's contributions to film history. Reflecting on how gender politics informs the production of film history, Aurore Spiers&nbsp;recasts the film archive as a site of women's agency, modeling strategies for inclusivity, recuperation, and liberation within feminist film historiography.

Archiving the Past

The extraordinary creative energy of Renaissance Italy lies at the root of modern Western culture. In this study, Virginia Cox offers a fresh vision of this iconic moment in cultural history. This book explores key artistic, literary and intellectual developments, as well as histories of food and fashion, map-making, exploration and anatomy.

A Cultural History

The Italian Renaissance

Broad in its scope and forward-thinking in its approach, this book offers a wide-ranging thematic exploration of key debates on contemporary translation in Latin American literature and culture. Featuring 32 chapters, some of which have been translated themselves, from a variety of the field's leading authorities alongside up-and-coming voices from around the world, it is organized in nine sections that correspond to fundamental sets of political, literary, and cultural questions that have emerged throughout the continent's history. Sections focus on colonialism, race, gender, the archive, criticism, creation, authenticity, politics, and world literature to offer a broad and ambitious snapshot of where the field is now as well as where it is going. Each essay demonstrates a way of doing translation studies by looking closely at texts and moments, whilst simultaneously drawing larger conclusions that are applicable to other objects of study. Mapping emerging trends in this vibrant field, it provides specialists, researchers and students with an invaluable and expansive collection of current research on translation in Latin America.
