Autor James Combs
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 oct 2010
A study of the "Great Movies", that fluid category of feature films deemed by various authorities to be the enduring and memorable works of cinematic history. It attempts to 'make sense' of these films in order to understand their greatness in the context of their relation to other films and to the worlds they come from and recreate on screen.

Notă biografică

James Combs is Professor Emeritus at Valparaiso University in Indiana, USA. He has been active in such academic associations as the Popular Culture Association and the International Communication Association. He is author and editor of a wide variety of books and articles, primarily on subjects related to social and political communication and popular culture, exploring such concepts as political drama, phony culture, the comedy of democracy, and the expansion of social play. Recently he has focused on the social and aesthetic importance of motion pictures. His first book for Cambridge Scholars Press, Movie Time, explores the ways movies participate and mediate temporal passage, with retrospection of the past, emergence of a present, and projection of a future. The present work, Wit's End, is the second volume of a projected trilogy. The third, entitled Comic Grace, will examine the enduring and animating significance and spirit of movie comedy. The author lives in a cabin in the woods of the American Appalachian mountains, along with Sara and surrounded by trees and woodland animals.
