{"product_id":"studying-contemporary-american-film-thomas-elsaesser-9780340762066","title":"Studying Contemporary American Film: A Guide to Movie Analysis","description":"What are the most appropriate theories and methods for analyzing contemporary America cinema? This book answers this question by taking an innovative approach to writing about individual movies: in each of the main chapters the authors examine the assumptions behind one traditional theory of film (e.g. auteurism, narratology, psychoanalysis), distil a method of analysis from it, and then analyze a contemporary American movie. They then go beyond the traditional theory by analyzing the same movie using a more current theory and method (e.g. new media theory, deconstruction, cognitivism).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Elsaesser, Warren Buckland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0340762063\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780340762066\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hodder Education Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.24h x 6.44w x 0.95d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThomas Elsaesser, University of Amsterdam, Netherlands Warren Buckland, Oxford Brookes University, UK\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thomas Elsaesser","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43913738911999,"sku":"9780340762066","price":47.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c0a82f54-d528-4f74-a745-5a377e2b7b9c.jpg?v=1680621943","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/studying-contemporary-american-film-thomas-elsaesser-9780340762066","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
