This collection is the first to bring together scholars to explore
the ways in which various people and groups in Italian society
reacted to the advent of cinema. Looking at the responses of
writers, scholars, clergymen, psychologists, philosophers, members
of parliament, and more, the pieces collected here from that period
show how Italians developed a common language to describe and
discuss this invention that quickly exceeded all expectations and
transcended existing categories of thought and artistic forms. The
result is a close-up picture of a culture in transition, dealing
with a 'scandalous' new technology that appeared poised to
thoroughly change everyday life.
