Recenzii

 “As entertaining as it is edifying, Reading the Cinematograph showcases the transformative presence—and role—of cinema in British short fiction at the turn of the twentieth century. Andrew Shail has devised a marvelous format for the occasion: eight stories, reprinted in full and accompanied by their original illustrations, followed by valuable critical commentary by eminent film scholars and framed by Shail’s indispensable historical/critical introduction and sure editorial hand. A work of impeccable and imaginative scholarship.”—Maria DiBattista, Princeton University
