Description de l'ouvrage:
First published in 2002, Marek Haltof’s seminal volume was the first comprehensive English-language study of Polish cinema, providing a much-needed survey of one of Europe’s most distinguished―yet unjustly neglected―film cultures. Since then, seismic changes have reshaped Polish society, European politics, and the global film industry. This thoroughly revised and updated edition takes stock of these dramatic shifts to provide an essential account of Polish cinema from the nineteenth century to today, covering such renowned figures as Kieślowski, Skolimowski, and Wajda along with vastly expanded coverage of documentaries, animation, and television, all set against the backdrop of an ever-more transnational film culture.
À propos de l'auteur :
Marek Haltof is a Professor at Northern Michigan University. His recent books include Screening Auschwitz: Wanda Jakubowska's The Last Stage and the Politics of Commemoration (2018), Historical Dictionary of Polish Cinema (second edition, 2015), and Polish Film and the Holocaust: Politics and Memory (2012).
Revue de Presse:
"Haltof's book is comprehensive, reliable, and holistic in its approach. It delivers rich, basic information in ways that are both enjoyable and intelligible for foreign readers. And yet, as soon as one finishes reading Polish Cinema: A History, one can barely suppress the urge to immediately rewrite it. Far from a put-down, this is perhaps the highest tribute that can be paid to a work of written history-as well as a challenge to generations of young scholars of Polish film all over the world, who will continue to write their own histories, always quoting Haltof's groundbreaking work as their locus of historical reference."
