Written by two of the leading scholars in film studies, Film History: An Introduction is a comprehensive, global survey of the medium that covers the development of every genre in film, from drama and comedy to documentary and experimental. As with the authors' bestselling Film Art: An Introduction (now in its eighth edition), concepts and events are illustrated with frame enlargements taken from the original sources, giving students more realistic points of reference than competing books that rely on publicity stills.
The third edition of Film History is thoroughly updated and includes the first comprehensive overviews of the impact of globalization and digital technology on the cinema. Any serious film scholar--professor, undergraduate, or graduate student--will want to read and keep Film History.
New Features
New final chapter, "Digital Technology and the Cinema," pulls together a wealth of recent research exploring the impact of new technology on film production, distribution, and publicity.
Revised organization splits the coverage of Latin America, the Asia-Pacific region, the Middle East, and Africa into two chapters, making the coverage of contemporary cinema in these regions more manageable.
More than 200 new film frames illustrate examples and concepts in the text providing students with more realistic points of reference, ensuring that what readers study on the page actually appears on the screen.
Updated examples and coverage throughout--particularly in Chapter 25 through 27--bring the text up to the present.
The authors' blog, Observations on film art and Film Art, includes a new essay on "Doing Film History" as well as weekly commentary on film from David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson. Visit: http://www.davidbordwell.net/blog/

【媒体用稿,请勿转载】 为电影著史,是件吃力不讨好的事。 与诗歌、戏剧、文学、舞蹈、音乐,以及世人印象中的历史著作本身不同,电影诞生得是如此之晚,以至于其出生年月、流变过程、甚至细枝末节都清晰可考;而若要放手著述一本电影史,其最大的窘境可能还包括:大部分的...
评分电影对于不同受众来说有着不同的意义,对于观众来说可能大多数时候他们都是看热闹,而对于它的制作者来说,他们要考虑的内在因素有很多。所谓写实主义手法,事实上往往是假的,平淡无奇的,而且能够看出不自然的痕迹。电影艺术重要的不是表现现实,而是通过想象力表达一定的意...
评分在对待世界电影和美国电影的部分,作者对美国电影电影部分的介绍比重缺乏公平性,被省略掉的一些欧洲部分,即便在当时超越美国,也只是被提及名字却没有后续的深入说明,但是对于美国人自己的部分却是非常详尽的叙述。 并没有专门去读过什么电影史的书,但是在平时学习中已经接...
评分克里斯汀•汤普森、大卫•波德维尔夫妇二人合著的皇煌大作《世界电影史》俨然已是电影史学界的案头必备,被译成了数种文字在世界各地流传,其中也包括中文版(第一版)。笔者翻译的是本书的第二版。 在第一版的基础上,两位原作者做了大量的修订和校正,并增补了1980年代...
评分终于看完了,整体还好,还有些瑕疵,希望这本书是最好的世界电影史读物。 855页,右栏,第二段,“第五代的领军人物”应该是“第四代”才对,这个表述电影史学好像也有争论。 856右栏,第二段,“姜文被禁止从事表演达七年”,应该为“五年”,编者注明有错应该改过来的。 942...
