New Vocabularies in Film Semiotics - Structuralism, post-structuralism and beyond (Hardcover)

New Vocabularies in Film Semiotics provides a comprehensive lexicon of semiotic concepts. With sections on linguistics, narratology, psychoanalysis and intertextuality, it constructs an indispensable dictionary for film theory, defining over five hundred critical terms. The authors address key aspects of contemporary semiotics and cultural debate, while referring to the work of figures such as Pierce, Saussure, Derrida, Barthes, Propp, Genette, Greimas, Kristeva, Lacan, Metz, Bellour, Heath, Mulvey, Johnston, Rose, Doane, Bakhtin, and Baudrillard.
The semiotic concepts are illustrated by examples drawn from the films of directors such as Welles, Dreyer, Bunuel, Godard, Hitchcock, Varda, Akerman, and Woody Allen. Although especially geared to the needs of film students, New Vocabularies in Film Semiotics should be useful for scholars in all areas of the arts, philosophy, and literature.
