Taiwan Cinema - A Contested Nation on Screen (Hardcover, New)

***Listed in THE CHRONICLE OF HIGHER EDUCATION's Weekly Book List, April 4, 2011*** Interview with the author: http: //dgeneratefilms.com/critical-essays/cinematalk-a-conversation-with-professor-guo-juin-hong-on-taiwan-cinema-1949-and-documentaries/ A groundbreaking study of Taiwan cinema, this is the first English language book that covers its entire history. Hong revises how Taiwan cinema is taught and studied by taking into account not only the auteurs of New Taiwan Cinema, but also the history of popular genre films before the 1980s. This work will be essential reading for students and scholars of Taiwan and Chinese-language cinemas and of great value to those interested in the larger context of East Asian cultural history as well as film and visual studies in general.
