Abstract

This book presents a radical reappraisal of one of the most persistent and misunderstood aspects of British cinema: social realism. - - Through means of close textual analysis, David Forrest advances the case that social realism has provided British national culture with a consistent and distinctive art cinema, arguing that a theoretical re-assessment of the mode can enable it to be located within the context of broader traditions of global cinema. - - The book begins with the documentary movement and British wartime cinema, before moving to the British new wave and social problem cycle; the films of Ken Loach; the films of Mike Leigh; realism in the 1980's, specifically the work of Stephen Frears and Alan Clarke; before concluding with a discussion of contemporary realist cinema, specifically the work of Shane Meadows, Andrea Arnold and other recent exponents of the mode. These case studies give a thorough platform to explore the most prominent and diverse examples of realist practice in Britain over the last 80 years. The construction and critical analysis of this social realist canona creates the conditions to reassess and look anew at this most British of cinematic traditions. - -

Abstract

Bei der Romantik handelte es sich um eine Reaktion auf den im 19. Jahrhundert vorherrschenden Klassizismus. Die Romantik markierte einen tiefen intellektuellen Einschnitt. Er kommt in den Schriften von Victor Hugo und Lord Byron ebenso zum Ausdruck wie in den Gemälden von Eugène Delacroix, Caspar David Friedrich und William Blake. In der Bildhauerei zeigte François Rude die Richtung an, die diese neue künstlerische Freiheit einschlagen sollte, indem er seinem Werk eine bis dahin nicht gekannte Dynamik und Ausdrucksstärke verlieh.Durch die Nachzeichnung der unterschiedlichen Stadien der Entwick

Abstract

Véritable réaction au néo-classicisme envahissant le XIXe siècle, le romantisme marqua une réelle fracture intellectuelle. Rencontré dans les textes de Victor Hugo ou de Lord Byron, ce courant s'exprima en peinture dans la touche d'Eugène Delacroix, de Caspar David Friedrich ou de William Blake. En sculpture, François Rude montra le chemin de cette nouvelle liberté artistique, dotant ses réalisations de mouvements et d'expressions qui étaient jusque-là inconnus.Retraçant les différentes étapes de son évolution, ce livre propose d'étudier les différents aspects du mouvement romantique.

Abstract

Romanticism was a reaction against the Neoclassicism that invaded the nineteenth century, and marked a veritable intellectual rupture. Found in the writings of Victor Hugo and Lord Byron among others, its ideas are expressed in painting by Eugène Delacroix, Caspar David Friedrich and William Blake. In sculpture, François Rude indicated the direction this new artistic freedom would take, endowing his work with a movement and expression never previously seen.By retracing the different stages of its evolution, this book offers a study of the different aspects of the Romantic movement.

Abstract

Claudia Moscovici asserts in Romanticism and Postromanticism that the Romantic heritage, far from being important only in a historical sense, has philosophical relevance and value for contemporary art and culture. With an emphasis on artistic tradition as a continuing source of inspiration and innovation, she touches upon each main branch of philosophy: aesthetics, epistemology, and ethics. The book begins by describing some of the most interesting features of the Romantic movement that still fuel our culture. It then addresses the question: How did an artistic movement whose focus was emotive expression change into a quest for formal experimentation? And finally, Moscovici considers the aesthetic philosophy of postromanticism by thinking through how the Romantic emphasis upon beauty and passion can be combined with the modern and postmodern emphasis on originality and experimentation.
