The Life of the Author

Více o knize

Challenging the prevailing notion of "death of the author," Sarah Kozloff proposes a new film authorship theory that emphasizes the significance of filmmakers' biographies, intentions, and collaborations. By integrating insights from notable scholars, she argues that understanding the creators enhances viewers' experiences and interpretations of films. Through an in-depth analysis of The Red Kimona (1925), she illustrates how knowledge of the filmmakers can reshape our understanding of this early feminist work, blending film history with theory in a compelling narrative.
