Research into and around women's participation in cinematic history
has enjoyed dynamic growth over the past decade. A broadening of
scope and interests encompasses not only different kinds of
filmmaking--mainstream fiction, experimental, and documentary--but
also practices--publicity, journalism, distribution and
exhibition--seldom explored in the past. Cutting-edge and
inclusive, Doing Women's Film History ventures into topics in the
United States and Europe while also moving beyond to explore the
influence of women on the cinemas of India, Chile, Turkey, Russia,
and Australia. Contributors grapple with historiographic questions
that cover film history from the pioneering era to the present day.
Yet the writers also address the very mission of practicing
scholarship. Essays explore essential issues like identifying
women's participation in their cinema cultures, locating previously
unconsidered sources of evidence, developing methodologies and
analytical concepts to reveal the impact of gender on film
production, distribution and reception, and reframing film history
to accommodate new questions and approaches. Contributors include:
Kay Armatage, Eylem Atakav, Karina Aveyard, Canan Balan, Cecile
Chich, Monica Dall'Asta, Eliza Anna Delveroudi, Jane M. Gaines,
Christine Gledhill, Julia Knight, Neepa Majumdar, Michele Leigh,
Luke McKernan, Debashree Mukherjee, Giuliana Muscio, Katarzyna
Paszkiewicz, Rashmi Sawhney, Elizabeth Ramirez Soto, Sarah Street,
and Kimberly Tomadjoglou.
