This book looks at Charlie Chaplin's masterpiece, Modern Times
(1936), through the lens of film aesthetics, structure, and
post-modern perspective. The naive Tramp character of Modern Times
is often seen as the embodiment of a revolutionary reaction to his
age. However, this study of the film shows that it is not only
difficult but also impossible to accept the long-established
critical reception of Chaplin's film and its characters in our own
"Post-modern Times." Drawing from extensive research and bringing
post-modern context to the film through a comparative analysis of
Todd Phillips's Joker (2019), the book introduces how exhilarating
a comprehensive study of film can be for engaged viewers.
Illustrating that a detailed filmic reading of Modern Times can be
a guide, or an extended case study, for analysing culture, this
book will be of interest to students and teachers in film studies,
literary studies, and the visual arts.

The scope, innovation and depth (down to the heart) of bpNichol's
writing makes him one of the most important writers in English of
the 20th century. He is widely known for his research into genres
as diverse as the lyric, the long poem, sound poetry, concrete
poetry, critical theory and now, with the publication of "bpNichol
Comics," we can even add the comic strip to this impressive list.
Carl Peters has put together this major collection of Nichol's
comics from 1960 to 1980, which frame characters ranging from Milt
the Morph, to Bob de Cat, Lonely Fred and Rover Rawshanks: rich
examples of Nichol's attempts to explode conventional syntax,
narrative structure, lyric self-centredness--indeed all of the
conventions of modernist art and art making. And with the inclusion
of a remarkable selection of previously unpublished letters and
essays around the comics themselves, Peters shows us that Nichol's
comics informed not only his own work in other genres, but the work
of other writers as well. But, in as much as Nichol's comics bring
us to a deeper understanding of his poetics, his comics also remind
us that, as Robin Blaser writes, "the truth is laughter." "bpNichol
Comics" is not only for scholars, poets, cartoonists, artists,
animators, writers and readers; it is for the inquisitive and
adventurous child in all of us.
