Description de l'ouvrage :
"Without question, Song Hwee Lim has presented us with an exemplar of quality scholarship in the study of contemporary Chinese cinemas. By combining an impressive command of Chinese and Western literary as well as film source materials with a sophisticated mode of analysis and an unassuming argumentative style, he has authored an exhilarating book--one that not only treats cinematic representations of male homosexuality with great sensitivity but also demonstrates what it means to read with critical intelligence and vision." --Rey Chow, Andrew W. Mellon Professor of the Humanities, Brown University
"Celluloid Comrades is a timely demonstration of the importance of queer studies in the field of transnational Chinese cinemas. Lim dissects gay sexuality in selective Chinese-language films, and vigorously contests commonly accepted critical paradigms and theoretical models. Readers will find a provocative, powerful voice in this new book." --Sheldon H. Lu, Professor of Comparative Literature, Universit
Revue de Presse :
[Celluloid Comrades’] extensive coverage and erudite exegesis guarantee that it will be a fundamental work for all scholars interested in Chinese cinema and sexuality for many years to come. . . . Thoughtful, rigorous, and challenging.
—Chris Berry, The China Quarterly (190, June 2007)Undoubtably one of the most thoroughly researched and tightly argued books on Chinese cinemas. Its primary emphasis on themes notwithstanding, it engages with all aspects of the film medium—audio, visual, narrative, and historical/contextual. Its methodological rigor and the richness of its insights will significantly raise the bar for future studies on Chinese cinemas and sexualities.
—Tze-lan D. Sang, Bulletin of the Institute of Chinese Literature and Philosophy (31, September 2007)Transcending its specialized subject matter, Lim’s accessible study of representations of male homosexuality in Chinese cinema makes a substantial contribution to the fields of queer studies, Chinese cultural studies, and film theory. . . .
