Beyond the conventional framework of privileging \"New and Post-New Cinema,\" or prominence of auteurs or single films, this volume is a comprehensive, judicious take on Taiwan cinema that fills gaps in the literature, offers a renewed historiography, and introduces new creative force and voices of Taiwan's moving image culture to produce a leading and accessible work on Taiwan film and culture. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Film-by-film is conceived as the main carrier of moving picture imagery for a majority of viewers, across the world. The curation offers an array of formal, historical, genre, sexual, social, and political frames, which provide a rich brew of contexts. This surfeit of meanings is carried by individual films, one by one, which breaks down abstractions into narrative bites and outsized emotions.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEmilie Yueh-yu Yeh\u003c\/b\u003e is Lam Wong Yiu Wah Chair Professor and Dean of Faculty of Arts at Lingnan University. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eDarrell William Davis\u003c\/b\u003e is Honorary Professor in the Visual Studies Department at Lingnan University. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eWenchi Lin\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of English and Dean of the College of Liberal Arts at National Central University, Taiwan.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 576\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 x 8.9 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 22, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42158839988359,"sku":"9780472055463","price":89.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/aa2c8c573369c3e9aacd857ad8ae94ee.webp?v=1733261993","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/thirty-two-new-takes-on-taiwan-cinema-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
