دانلود کتاب Women Filmmakers: Refocusing

توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب به زبان اصلی :

What difference does it make today when a woman wields the camera? What is the relationship of the work and experience of women filmmakers now to feminism and feminist theory? Have issues of gender in films by women been eclipsed by issues of race and class? How has the situation of women filmmakers changed over the past twenty years? Women Filmmakers: Refocusing is a ground-breaking collection of essays that turns a critical eye on the often-overlooked work of women filmmakers. This wide-ranging volume includes contributions from prominent filmmakers and scholars, such as Helma Sanders Brahms, Deepa Metha, Pratibha Parmar, Margarethe von Trotta, Ann Wheeler, and E. Ann Kaplan. Questions of history and theory, genre, creativity, funding and distribution, national and cultural identity, and class all come to the fore in this unparalleled study of women's film culture. Equally accessible to non-specialists and researchers alike, this book will have great appeal to filmmakers, film studies faculty and students, film buffs, and those with an interest in women's studies and cultural studies.
