Description de l'ouvrage :
Uncanny Histories in Film and Media brings together a stellar lineup of established and emergent scholars who explore the uncanny twists and turns that are often occluded in larger accounts of film and media. Prompted by fresh archival research and new conceptual approaches, the works included here probe the uncanny as a mode of historical analysis that reveals surprising connections and unsettling continuities. The uncanny stands for what often eludes us, for what remains unfamiliar or mysterious or strange. Whether writing about film movements, individual works, or the legacies of major or forgotten critics and theorists, the contributors remind us that at the heart of the uncanny, and indeed the writing of history, is a troubling of definitions, a challenge to our inherited narratives, and a disturbance of what was once familiar in the uncanny histories of our field.

Revue de Presse :
"The exciting array of 'uncanny' histories gathered in this collection trouble familiar narratives in film and media studies. Centering marginalized spaces, figures, and texts, these essays show us how much of media history remains to be written."
— Shelley Stamp "With consummate mastery, Petro has collected provocative and inspirational contributions to a range of subfields in media studies—colonialism and its aftermath, game studies, race and representation, transnationalism, global markets, and the trajectory of feminism." — Mary Ann Doane "The exciting array of 'uncanny' histories gathered in this collection trouble familiar narratives in film and media studies.
