Goals of the Course
By figuratively dividing the film history in Asia into two stages, namely the pre and post World War II periods, we shall start our two-part survey on Asian film history with this particular course, in which the highlight is directed to early cinemas from East Asia. In positioning the survey of films within the socio-historical exigencies and cultural context of Japan, China (Taiwan & Hong Kong) and Korea before and during World War II, this course offers the students an opportunity to engage with the early cinemas and their evolvement from the perspective of social history and discourses of modernities in this region. Students are expected to acquire the basic knowledge on early cinemas in Asia, and learn to analyze films in relation to certain socio-cultural issues that became significant during the timeframe under examination.
