This is the first collection in English to focus exclusively on the
various forms of popular film produced in Spain and to acknowledge
the variety, range and depth of Spanish cinema. Contributors from
across Hispanic, media and cultural studies explore a range of
genres, from the musicals of the 1930s and 1940s to contemporary
horror movies, historical epics of the 1940s and 1950s and
contemporary representations of the Spanish Civil War. The book
includes reappraisals of key popular directors such as Luis Garcia
Berlanga and Antonio Mercero as well as critical analyses of
celebrated stars like Marisol. It provides innovative consideration
of the promotion and reception of horror in the 1960s,
recollections of cinema-going in Madrid, and reflections on
successful recent works such as 'Abre los Ojos' and 'Solas'. The
contributors offer a range of critical and methodological
perspectives, opening up new ways of analysing Spanish popular
film. -- .
"Willis's Elements of Quantity Surveying" has become a standard
text in the teaching of building measurement - a core part of the
curriculum for quantity surveyors. Particularly in the latter
editions it has eclipsed the other books on building measurement,
partly because of the heritage, but mostly because of the logical
approach and copious use of examples to guide the student.
The new 11th edition has been fully updated to recognise the
introduction of the New Rules of Measurement (NRM) by the Royal
Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), which reflect the way
the modern QS works and provide a standard set of measurement rules
that are understandable by all those involved in a construction
project.
Key features: First published in 1935, has been used by many
generations of quantity surveyors and lecturersNew edition fully
updated to include the RICS new rules of measurement (NRM)Many
examples updated to reflect current QS practiceRevisers have
extensive experience of teaching the subject through College of
Estate Management courses
Examines the work of women in East Asian Cinema in front of and
behind the screen Highlights understudied areas on women's
contributions to film East Asian film in particular Highlights
importance of re-historicising women's creative labour in film, not
just as actors on screen Recentres women's film history into film
history more broadly Creates opportunities for dialogue amongst
established and emerging scholars working in different areas of
East Asian film studies Women in East Asian Cinema brings together
new and emerging work to highlight and explore the understudied
contributions of women to the films and creative industries of East
Asia. It is a book which foregrounds the importance of
re-historicising women's creative labour in film, not just as
actors on screen, but as voices who have steered the production,
circulation and consumption of these films across global contexts.
Over three sections, the book provides perspectives on gender
representation in East and South-East Asian cinema; new
explorations of women's labour contributions as directors,
screenwriters, and editors; and considerations of the contemporary
circulation processes through which such work reaches global
audiences. By recentring women's film histories within the broader
history of cinema and interrogating the geo-political boundaries of
what might constitute 'East Asia' in the process, this volume makes
a robust intervention into studies of East Asian cinema and women
in film.
