international scholars, the book is structured around six

BIRTH OF THE TALKIES AND THE FASCIST ERA (1922-45) POSTWAR
CINEMATIC CULTURE (1945-59) THE GOLDEN AGE OF ITALIAN CINEMA
(1960-80) AN AGE OF CRISIS, TRANSITION AND CONSOLIDATION (1981 TO
THE PRESENT) NEW DIRECTIONS IN CRITICAL APPROACHES TO ITALIAN
CINEMA Acutely aware of the contemporary 'rethinking' of Italian
cinema history, Peter Bondanella has brought together a diverse
range of essays which represent the cutting edge of Italian film
theory and criticism. This provocative collection will provide the
film student, scholar or enthusiast with a comprehensive
understanding of the major developments in what might be called
twentieth-century Italy's greatest and most original art form.
