It is the first work to explore the industrial and aesthetic dynamics of Marathi cinema, and elaborate on the idea of region as performance using the framework of critical socio-spatial analysis. Against the dominance of Hindi cinema, the Marathi film industry, as a regional film practice in India, has developed within a cultural and spatial liminality. This historical situation of the Marathi film industry is formulated here as the shaping and dispersal of a vernacular cultural space; and is traced over a period of seven decades, across genres like the saint-film, social melodramas, and the tamasha film, as well as in urban and mofussil sites of film circulation. The book aims to be a useful resource for students, researchers, and general readers, while attending to a lack of scholarly inquiries on this important regional film culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hrishikesh Sudhakar Ingle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0192859781\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780192859785\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.80w x 1.30d","brand":"Hrishikesh Sudhakar Ingle","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44123151794431,"sku":"9780192859785","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d09d527b-3ba0-4095-8dd8-50d2bff8daa4.jpg?v=1687429225","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/marathi-cinema-cultural-space-and-hrishikesh-sudhakar-ingle-9780192859785","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
