By critically examining regimes of visuality such as the imperial, the ethnographic and the exotic gaze, which have colonised our minds and ways of looking, Daniela Berghahn makes an important contribution to the urgent agenda of decolonising film studies. \u003cbr\u003eBerghahn demonstrates that decentred exoticism's aesthetic versatility and alluring alterity are uniquely relevant for understanding the transnational appeal of world cinema. She addresses prevalent controversies surrounding exoticism and illustrates that, in contemporary world cinema, it is utilised to draw attention to new ethical and socio-political goals. Global in scope and transnational in perspective, \u003ci\u003eExotic Cinema\u003c\/i\u003e invites students and researchers to reassess this prominent mode of cultural representation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniela Berghahn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474474225\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474474221\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Daniela Berghahn","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46233229721855,"sku":"9781474474221","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f92d11a6-a9c9-442f-bf75-f28b91d50ef1.jpg?v=1728992429","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/exotic-cinema-daniela-berghahn-9781474474221","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
