授業の目的 【英語】 Goals of the Course | | This survey course aims to introduce to the students the historical developments of contemporary Asian cinema culture(s). Importantly, we situate the study of film cultures at the conjuncture of cinéphile culture, national/regional film industries and business, and the global institution of art cinema, within a larger socio-cultural context across East and Southeast Asian societies that has been drastically changing since 1989/the end of Cold War. Although the lecture is structured in the ‘classic’ format of national cinema, in each section we would also underscore the dynamics of transnational cinema by looking at the importance of film festivals and similar network/entities. Through this unusual journey, the students are encouraged to rethink and debate on crucial issues related to film cultures and film movements across Hong Kong, Taiwan, the People’s Republic of China, South Korea, Japan and Southeast Asian countries such as the Philippines, Malaysia and Thailand. Hopefully this course would productively intersect film studies, area studies, gender studies, urban culture and sociology. |
