Focused on a hostile environment that few people visit, these documentaries have heavily shaped ideas about the contemporary global Far North. In \u003cem\u003eArctic Cinemas and the Documentary Ethos\u003c\/em\u003e, contributors from a variety of scholarly and artistic backgrounds come together to provide a comprehensive study of Arctic documentary cinemas from a transnational perspective. This book offers a thorough analysis of the concept of the Arctic as it is represented in documentary filmmaking, while challenging the notion of \"The Arctic\" as a homogenous entity that obscures the environmental, historical, geographic, political, and cultural differences that characterize the region. By examining how the Arctic is imagined, understood, and appropriated in documentary work, the contributors argue that such films are key in contextualizing environmental, indigenous, political, cultural, sociological, and ethnographic understandings of the Arctic, from early cinema to the present. Understanding the role of these films becomes all the more urgent in the present day, as conversations around resource extraction, climate change, and sovereignty take center stage in the Arctic's representation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Indiana University Press (IPS)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52657130406255,"sku":"9780253040305","price":315.08,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9384\/9711\/files\/0253040302.jpg?v=1770807732"},{"product_id":"promises-of-citizenship","title":"Promises of Citizenship","description":"\u003cp\u003eSince the earliest days of the nation, US citizenship has been linked to military service. Even though blacks fought and died in all American wars, their own freedom was usually restricted or denied. In many ways, World War II exposed this contradiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs demand for manpower grew during the war, government officials and military leaders realized that the war could not be won without black support. To generate African American enthusiasm, the federal government turned to mass media. Several government films were produced and distributed, movies that have remained largely unexamined by scholars. Kathleen M. German delves into the dilemma of race and the federal government's attempts to appeal to black patriotism and pride even while postponing demands for equality and integration until victory was achieved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGerman's study intersects three disciplines: the history of the African American experience in World War II, the theory of documentary film, and the study of rhetoric. One of the main films of the war era, The Negro Soldier, fractured the long tradition of degrading minstrel caricatures by presenting a more dignified public image of African Americans. Along with other government films, the narrative within The Negro Soldier transformed the black volunteer into an able soldier. It included African Americans in the national mythology by retelling American history to recognize black participation. As German reveals, through this new narrative with more dignified images, The Negro Soldier and other films performed rhetorical work by advancing the agenda of black citizenship.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University Press of Mississippi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52657546494319,"sku":"9781496823335","price":316.34,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9384\/9711\/files\/1496823338.jpg?v=1770816226"},{"product_id":"explorations-in-film-theory","title":"Explorations in Film Theory","description":"\u003cp\u003eExplorations in Film Theory\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Indiana University Press (IPS)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52665653723503,"sku":"9780253206121","price":349.42,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9384\/9711\/files\/025320612X.jpg?v=1770906678"},{"product_id":"transforming-harry","title":"Transforming Harry","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTransforming Harry: The Adaptation of Harry Potter in the Transmedia Age \u003c\/em\u003eis an edited volume of eight essays that look at how the cinematic versions of the seven Harry Potter novels represent an unprecedented cultural event in the history of cinematic adaptation. The movie version of the first\u003cem\u003e Harry Potter\u003c\/em\u003e book, \u003cem\u003eHarry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone\u003c\/em\u003e, premiered in 2001, in between publication of the fourth and fifth books of this global literary phenomenon. As a result, the production and reception of both novel and movie series became intertwined with one another, creating a fanbase who accessed the series first through the books, first through the movies, and in various other combinations. John Alberti and P. Andrew Miller have gathered scholars to explore and examine the cultural, political, aesthetic, and pedagogical dimensions of this pop culture phenomenon and how it has changed the reception of both the films and books.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDivided into two sections, the volume addresses both the fidelity of adaptation and the transmedia adaptations that have evolved around the creation of the books and movies. In her essay, Vera Cuntz-Leng draws on feminist film theory to explore the gaze politics and male objectification operating in the \u003cem\u003eHarry Potter\u003c\/em\u003e movies. Cassandra Bausman contends that screenwriter Steve Klove's revision of the end of the film version of \u003cem\u003eDeathly Hallows, Part II\u003c\/em\u003e offers a more politically and ethically satisfying conclusion to the \u003cem\u003eHarry Potter\u003c\/em\u003e saga than the ending of the Rowling novel.
