This book introduces the current state of research on dark energy.
It consists of three parts. The first part is for preliminary
knowledge, including general relativity, modern cosmology, etc. The
second part reviews major theoretical ideas and models of dark
energy. The third part reviews some observational and numerical
works. The aim of this book is to provide a sufficient level of
understanding of dark energy problems, so that the reader can both
get familiar with this area quickly and also be prepared to tackle
the scientific literature on this subject. It will be useful for
graduate students and researchers who are interested in dark
energy.
Chinese martial arts cinema is held to be a synthesis drawing on
artistic conventions of traditional Chinese theatre. Film sound and
music perform as the legitimate heirs of some of the aesthetic
ideas and norms of traditional Chinese theatre. This book
critically examines the history of this under-explored field of
inquiry from a theoretically comparative perspective, demonstrating
that the musical codes drawn from traditional theatre are a
constantly changing component integral to Chinese martial arts
cinema. It explores the interaction between traditional Chinese
theatre and Chinese martial arts cinema in how the musical codes of
the former have shaped the aesthetics of the latter uniquely. This
departs from conventional existing studies that focus on
“adaptation.” The book’s historical and theoretical approach
connects film, theatre and music, and re-defines the status of
distinctive domains of filmic expression, grounding theatre as the
pivot – or “hinge” – of film aesthetics. The book proffers
this unique angle of research to rethink and re-imagine film sound
and audiovisual synchronisation. Primarily intended for scholars in
Chinese cinema, film music, Chinese theatre and visual culture,
this monograph also presents introductory and comprehensive
material for undergraduate and graduate-level courses in film and
media studies, film music, Chinese cinema, and Chinese theatre.
