Even though cross-cultural connections are becoming more patent in filmic productions in the last decades, cinema per se has always been characterized by its hybrid, transnational, border-crossing nature. From its own inception, Spanish film production was soon tied to the Hollywood film industry for its subsistence, but other film traditions such as those in the Soviet Union, France, Germany and, in particular, Italy also determined either directly or indirectly the development of Spanish cinema. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eGlobal Genres, Local Films: The Transnational Dimension of Spanish Cinema\u003c\/i\u003e reaches beyond the limits of the film text and analyses and contextualizes the impact of global film trends and genres on Spanish cinema in order to study how they helped articulate specific national challenges from the conflict between liberalism and tradition in the first decades of the 20th century to the management of the contemporary financial crisis. This collection provides the first comprehensive picture of the complex national and supranational forces that have shaped Spanish films, revealing the tensions and the intricate dialogue between cross-cultural aesthetic and narrative models on the one hand, and indigenous traditions on the other, as well as the political and historical contingencies these different expressions responded to.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elena Oliete-Aldea\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1501320165\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501320163\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/29\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.62d","brand":"Elena Oliete-Aldea","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46110707908863,"sku":"9781501320163","price":51.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_94574bf3-d657-430a-a6ab-e508819fd9b9.jpg?v=1725469536","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/global-genres-local-films-elena-oliete-aldea-9781501320163","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
