SCREEN METHODS: COMPARATIVE READINGS IN FILM STUDIES; ED. BY JACQUELINE FURBY

the long version

"Screen Methods: Comparative Readings in Film Studies is a collection of essays that explores in detail the way in which Film Studies, an increasingly popular subject at universities, has been approached theoretically, culturally and historically and the ways in which this has changed in the twenty-first century. In so doing, the contributors to this volume also give an invaluable insight into many of the theories at the heart of Film Studies. The book focuses on classical theories, culture-based approaches, early and modern theory, statistical approaches and the potential futures of critical film theory."--BOOK JACKET.
