Illustrating how the concepts of modernism and the avant-garde variously manifest themselves in film, Kov當s begins by tracing the emergence of art cinema as a historical category. He then explains the main formal characteristics of modern styles and forms as well as their intellectual foundation. Finally, drawing on modernist theory and philosophy along the way, he provides an innovative history of the evolution of modern European art cinema. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eExploring not only modernism's origins but also its stylistic, thematic, and cultural avatars, \u003ci\u003eScreening Modernism\u003c\/i\u003e ultimately lays out creative new ways to think about the historical periods that comprise this golden age of film.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andr疽 B疝int Kov當s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0226451658\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226451657\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.89h x 6.14w x 0.96d","brand":"Andr疽 B疝int Kov當s","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946341302527,"sku":"9780226451657","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_5c13a893-bab8-4190-9e83-eefa8ed56ed7.jpg?v=1681512606","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/screening-modernism-andr-s-b-lint-kov-cs-9780226451657","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
