Transnational Ecocinema: Film Culture in an Era of Ecological Transformation
Editat de Pietari Kääpä, Tommy Gustafssonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 iul 2013
Discussion
of
Hollywood
film
has
dominated
much
of
the
contemporary
dialogue
on
ecocriticism
and
the
cinema—until
now.
WithTransnational
Ecocinemas,
the
editors
open
up
the
critical
debate
to
look
at
a
larger
variety
of
films
from
many
different
countries
and
cultures.
By
foregrounding
these
films
with
their
economic
and
political
contexts,
the
contributors
offer
a
more
comprehensive
and
nuanced
look
at
the
role
of
place
in
ecocinema.
The
essays
also
interrogate
proposed
global
solutions
to
environmental
issues
by
presenting
an
ecocritical
perspective
on
different
film
cultural
considerations
from
around
the
globe.
