It shares a common formalist concern about cinematic modernism with its Western counterparts, departing from previous modes of filmmaking that were preoccupied with nostalgically romanticizing China's image. \u003cbr\u003eThrough utilising in-depth case studies of films by Taiwan-based directors: Tsai Ming-liang, Zhao Deyin and Hou Hsiao-hsien, Tsai discusses how Taiwan New Cinema represents a struggling configuration of the 'nation', brought forth by Taiwan's multilayered colonial and postcolonial histories. \u003ci\u003eTaiwan New Cinema at Film Festivals\u003c\/i\u003e presents the conditions that have led to the production of a national cinema, branding the auteur, and examines shifting representations of cultural identity in the context of globalization.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Beth Tsai\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 147449692X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474496926\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 02\/28\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.39d","brand":"Beth Tsai","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46906777993471,"sku":"9781474496926","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4048e322-d5ba-4f33-a5ab-cf628e723937.jpg?v=1748771392","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/taiwan-new-cinema-at-film-beth-tsai-9781474496926","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
