Eisenstein's reputation has long been secure as creator of the
Soviet cinema's earliest and most enduring classics, and as a
pioneer theorist and teacher. Yet the English-speaking world has
not kept pace with a rising tide of Eisenstein scholarship further
enriched by new publications emerging from the former Soviet Union.
"Eisenstein Rediscovered" presents the first true East-West
symposium on Eisenstein with an unparalleled diversity of views and
methodologies. Scholars from ten countries examine the vast legacy
he bequeathed, and offer important new perspectives for
reinterpreting Russian culture of the Soviet period. They explore
how much Eisenstein owed to the Symbolist culture of his youth; how
his involvement in theatre has been undervalued; what role he
played in both the artistic and philosophical avant-gardes of the
'20s; and how both Pushkin and the English Elizabethans shaped his
later concept of tragedy. Including two newly discovered texts by
Eisenstein which are translated for the first time, this collection
makes extensive use of material only recently available. The new'
Eisenstein that emerges is a far more eclectic and engaging figure
than is traditionally perceived.
