{"product_id":"kafkaesque-cinema-angelos-koutsourakis-9781474498968","title":"Kafkaesque Cinema","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor all its familiarity as a widely used term, \"Kafkaesque cinema\" remains an often-baffling concept that is poorly understood by film scholars. Taking a cue from Jorge Luis Borges' point that Kafka has modified our conception of past and future artists, and Andr? Bazin's suggestion that literary concepts and styles can exceed authors and \"novels from which they emanate\", this monograph proposes a comprehensive examination of Kafkaesque Cinema in order to understand it as part of a transnational cinematic tradition rooted in Kafka's critique of modernity, which, however, extends beyond the Bohemian author's work and his historical experiences. Drawing on a range of disciplines in the Humanities including film, literary, and theatre studies, critical theory, and history, \u003ci\u003eKafkaesque Cinema\u003c\/i\u003e will be the first full-length study of the subject and will be a useful resource for scholars and students interested in film theory, World Cinema, World Literature, and politics and representation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Angelos Koutsourakis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474498965\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474498968\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 05\/31\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.75d","brand":"Angelos Koutsourakis","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45898518102271,"sku":"9781474498968","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_611065c1-60ed-4119-b976-2cf15ed66f62.jpg?v=1721376498","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/kafkaesque-cinema-angelos-koutsourakis-9781474498968","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
