Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique auto-ethnographic study of life at the Coffee House Positano—a Bohemian coffee house in Malibu, California—during the late 1950s and early 1960s is a combination of historical reconstruction and personal memoir. An ebook consisting of a collection of memories expressed through multiple formats—text, image, audio, and video—it describes in illuminating detail the great range of people who frequented Positano and the activities that took place there over its short but influential existence. As an ethnographer analyzing his own culture, author Jay Ruby uses a unique ethnographic method known as “studying sideways.” He combines the exploration of self and others with the theoretical framework of anthropology to provide deep insight into the counterculture of late 1950s and early 1960s America. He shares his connection to Positano, where he lived and worked from 1957 to 1959 and again in 1963, and reflects on Positano in the context of US counterculture and the greater role of countercultures in society. This intimate and significant work will be of interest to anthropologists as well as scholars and the general reader interested in California history, Beat culture, and countercultural movements.

Download or read book Film Festivals and Anthropology written by María-Paz Peirano and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection explores the intersections between anthropology and film festival studies. Film and anthropology scholars map ethnographic film festivals and ethnographic approaches to festivals worldwide. The book provides a historical reconstruction of most of the main festivals exhibiting ethnographic film, considering the parallel evolution of programming and organisational practices across the globe. It also addresses the great value and challenges of ethnographic research tools for studying the wide-ranging field of film festivals. This volume is the first to collect long-term experiences of curating and exhibiting ethnographic film, as well as new approaches to the understanding of film festival practices. Its contributions reflect on curatorial practices within visual anthropology and their implications for ethnographic filmmaking, and they shed light on problems of cultural translation, funding, festival audiences and the institutionalisation of ethnographic cinema. The book offers a novel perspective on film festivals as showcases for cinema, socio-cultural hubs and distribution nodes. Aimed at anthropologists, media scholars, festival organisers and documentary film professionals, it offers a starting point for the study of ethnographic film exhibition within its cultural and social contexts.

Download or read book Romeo and Juliet in L A written by Edward Loomis and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2000-08-10 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novel ROMEO AND JULIET IN L.A. gives the story of the making of a film called that, which is the story of street kids enacting the Romeo-and-Juliet theme to a tragic conclusion, and the novel as it happens tells that story--the story of Mayo, Julie, Adam, Angel, and Reno--against a background of the complex workings of a modern professional movie production. Included in those "complex workings" is the revival of a high school friendship between the author of the screenplay and one of the financial backers of the film--and this is a story of cooperation between Jew and Gentile begun when the participants were still in high school. So the novel has the street kids and also the movie people, from the Producer, Sam Willavoy, to the actors and directors--and the writer, who is responsible for it all.
