The Feminist Film Philosophy Reader

Discover the terrifying history of horror cinema in this wickedly entertaining guide. Adapted from the acclaimed podcast, The Evolution of Horror takes a deep dive into the history of cinema's darkest genre. Covering everything from silent films to modern masterpieces, author Mike Muncer breaks down eight key horror subgenres - including vampires, slashers, zombies and ghost stories - to explore the tropes, motifs, historical context and psychology behind why certain stories scare us so much. Each chapter includes reviews of a host of major movies and cult classics, plus a guide to the hallmarks of the subgenre and the legendary filmmakers who have mastered it. Stylishly illustrated throughout with stills, posters and stunning artworks by artist Mike Lee-Graham, this is a must-read guide to the eclectic, enthralling and deliciously macabre world of horror.

A Terrifying Guide to Horror Movie History

The Evolution of Horror

If in its simplest form, hermeneutics is a quest for understanding, then part of that quest will always include striving to understand being and the meaning of being. This open access book takes that ambition seriously, arguing that hermeneutics and metaphysics, so central to philosophical thought but so rarely put in tandem, are two complementary fundamentals of human existence. Metaphysical Hermeneutics puts forward the argument for a hermeneutical metaphysics in service of philosophy's basic aim: to make sense of our experience. Jean Grondin builds his argument for this combined discipline around the idea of 'sense' - a theme that is both hermeneutical and metaphysical. What we seek to glimpse is not just a figment of the mind but always the meaning of something. Grondin calls on one of the founding figures of contemporary hermeneutics Hans-Georg Gadamer to test his theories, singling out the metaphysical dimension of Gadamer's ideas and questioning his seeming embrace and rejection of that dimension. Rooting these questions in the human search for meaning is a major contribution to the scope and resources of hermeneutic philosophy. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

This open access book investigates film studios in Britain, France, Germany and Italy between the 1930s and 1960s. During this time, studios faces unprecedented challenges including wartime disruptions, post-war fragmentation, movement of labour and the introduction of new technologies. While the study of film studios has been dominated by the centralized Hollywood 'studio system', the authors present new research about the often very different histories of Europe's film studios, comparing their geographic locations, architectures and infrastructural development. They explore a number of well-known studios including Pinewood, Joinville, Babelsberg and Cinecittà, as well as lesser-known production sites such as Manchester, Victorine, post-war West German studios and Tirrenia as diverse creative and economic infrastructures. Drawing on a wealth of archival sources, photographs, films, aerial maps and visualizations, the book charts how artistic practices responded to transnational flows in film studio expertise, as studios constituted formative, materially based 'spaces of the imagination' that produced some of cinema's most influential films. How studios worked in the past as dynamic, creative working environments that were profoundly influenced by their locations, architectures and personnel, is foregrounded as the authors produce new understandings of how the collaborative and material environments of studio spaces and technologies shaped film production and cultures. The open access edition of this book is available under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on www.bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the European Research Council.

"If Black women were free, it would mean that everyone else would have to be free." 
-Combahee River Collective Statement 
 
The Combahee River Collective, a pathbreaking group of radical Black feminists, was one of the most important organizations to develop out of the antiracist and women's liberation movements of the 1960s and '70s. In this collection of essays and interviews edited by activist-scholar Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, founding members and contemporary activists reflect on the organization's contributions to Black feminism and its impact on today's struggles. 
 
This expanded second edition features a new preface by Taylor and a powerful new interview with Angela Y. Davis.

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.
