授業の目的 【英語】 Goals of the Course | | In this survey course (IFH), we aim to provide the very basic yet crucial horizon of knowledge in studying world film history. Our course consists of several converging critical frameworks, 1) early cinema; 2) national cinema (till 1945), which has been divided into three sections: a) European cinemas from the silent era to the sound era; b) the Hollywood studio system, and c) emerging national film industries in Asia. 3) post-WWII national cinemas, which highlights the postwar European cinema, French New Wave and the fall and rise of Hollywood till the 1990s; 4) a closing section on cinemas in the global era. |
