Textul de pe ultima copertă
In
this
remarkable
new
study,
the
renowned
historian
and
theorist
of
early
cinema
turns
his
attention
to
the
work
of
Fritz
Lang,
proposing
new
readings
of
the
entire
output
of
one
of
cinema's
foremost
directors.
Gunning
examines
the
films
not
only
as
a
stylistically
coherent
body
of
work,
but
as
an
attempt
to
portray
the
modern
world
through
cinema.
The
world
of
modernity
in
which
systems
replace
individuals
is
conveyed
by
Lange's
mastery
of
cinematic
set
design,
composition,
and
editing.
Lang
presents
not
only
a
decades-long
vision
of
cinematic
narrative
that
can
be
compared
to
that
of
Alfred
Hitchcock
or
Jean
Renoir,
but
a
view
of
modernity
that
relates
strongly
to
the
ideas
of
Adorno,
Brecht,
Benjamin,
and
Kracauer.
From
the
sweeping
allegorical
films
of
the
'20s
to
the
chilly
and
abstract
thrillers
of
the
'50s,
Fritz
Lang's
films,
Gunning
claims,
are
among
the
most
precious
records
of
the
twentieth
century.
"The
Films
of
Fritz
Lang"
immeasurably
enriches
our
understanding
of
a
great
artist
who
fades
away
even
in
being
recognized
and
interpreted,
an
enigmatic
figure
at
the
junction
of
aesthetics,
history,
biography
and
theory.
