Produktbeschreibung
André Bazin (1918-58) is credited with almost single-handedly establishing the study of film as an accepted intellectual pursuit, as well as with being the spiritual father of the French New Wave. In 1951 he co-founded and became editor-in-chief of Cahiers du cinéma, the single most influential critical periodical in the history of the cinema. Bazin can also be considered the principal instigator of the equally influential auteur theory: the idea that, since film is an art form, the director of a movie must be perceived as the chief creator of its unique cinematic style. Though he died tragically young, he left much material behind, all of which is now duly noted and annotated, for the first time, in this book's comprehensive bibliography of writings by Bazin and about Bazin, in all languages. Also featuring a contextual introduction to his life and work, Bazin on Film: An Annotated Bibliography represents a major contribution to the still growing discipline of cinema studies, aswell as a testament to the continuing influence of one of the world's pre-eminent critical thinkers.
