Age of New Waves - Art Cinema and the Staging of Globalization

Zusatztext In The Age of New Waves, James Tweedie takes discrete new wave cinemas from France to Taiwan out of the local contexts that produced them and into which they are too frequently confined, and makes a case for understanding the new wave as a global phenomenon. The result is a brilliant analysis that contributes to national as well as international cinema studies, while rethinking key aspects of both. Tweedie's book itself represents a new wave of scholarship on national cinemas in the world.
