Born in 1899, Alfred Hitchcock directed 57 films in a fifty year
career that spanned the history of the moving image, from the
silent era to stereo sound, black-and white to Technicolor,
widescreen to television, and from Europe to Hollywood. His oeuvre
has so comprehensively engaged the attentions of scholars of all
critical persuasions that the study of his films is synonymous with
the study of the art of cinema itself.
Alfred Hitchcock: Centenary Essays displays the range and
breadth of Hitchcock scholarship and assesses the significance of
his singular body of work. The book engages with Hitchcock's
characteristic formal and aesthetic preoccupations, his
relationship with modernism and politics and his engagement with
romance and sexuality.
This volume of essays draws on the best of current Hitchcock
criticism and opens up new directions for Hitchcock
scholarship.
