Theatre, dance, music, circus, radio, television and the plastic arts left a distinctive mark on Brazilian cinema's poetics and politics, as can be observed in a host of fascinating phenomena analysed in this book, including: the film prologues that connected the screen to the stage in the 1920s; the \u003ci\u003echanchada \u003c\/i\u003emusical comedies, inflected by vaudeville theatre and the radio; the \u003ci\u003emanguebeat \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eárido movie \u003c\/i\u003emovements that blurred the boundaries between music and film; and contemporary multimedia installations and other experiments. By adopting intermediality as a historiographic method, this book reconstructs the history and cultural wealth behind filmic expressions in Brazilian cinema.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e L?cia Nagib\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 147445299X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474452991\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 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"L?cia Nagib","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46685798105343,"sku":"9781474452991","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_27123210-4039-48fe-a3c8-eba70f4079d2.jpg?v=1741726803","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/towards-an-intermedial-history-of-lcia-nagib-9781474452991","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
