  • Pages : 340 pages

Download or read book El museo nacional written by Thalía Montes Recinas and published by Instituto Nacional de Antropologia E Historia. This book was released on 2010 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present catalogue is a graphic registry of the 34 days of the celebrations of the 1910 Centenary celebrations comprising a selection of more than 300 vintage photographs of the historic festivities taken for the official chronicle "Crónica oficial de las fiestas del primer Centenario de la Independencia de México", written in 1911 by Genaro García. Close to forty percent of them were never previously published because of their "inappropriate" content and that represent "the other side of a coin", a comparative effect illustrated by author Martha Ghigliazza, cataloger of the CNMH when referring to "the selected photographs of the front and verso covers of the book." Historian Montes Recinas and photographe Ghigliazza Solares are the responsible of publishing this inedited material, a cataloguing and digitalization project they started in 2006 in the photographic collection in custody of the Fototeca "Constantino Reyes Valerio" of the National Coordination of Historic Monuments (CNMH-INAH). Author Montes defines the book as "a bird's eye view of the Mexican people in 1910 and those that administrated the country, President Porfírio Díaz and his cabinet along other government officials of the education sector like Justo Sierra.

Book In Excess

  • Author : Masha Salazkina
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2009-08-01
  • ISBN : 0226734161
  • Pages : 232 pages

Download or read book In Excess written by Masha Salazkina and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-08-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1920s and ’30s, Mexico attracted an international roster of artists and intellectuals—including Orson Welles, Katherine Anne Porter, and Leon Trotsky—who were drawn to the heady tumult engendered by battling cultural ideologies in an emerging center for the avant-garde. Against the backdrop of this cosmopolitan milieu, In Excess reconstructs the years that the renowned Soviet director Sergei Eisenstein spent in the country to work on his controversial film ¡Que Viva Mexico! Illuminating the inextricability of Eisenstein’s oeuvre from the global cultures of modernity and film, Masha Salazkina situates this unfinished project within the twin contexts of postrevolutionary Mexico and the ideas of such contemporaneous thinkers as Walter Benjamin. In doing so, Salazkina explains how Eisenstein’s engagement with Mexican mythology, politics, and art deeply influenced his ideas, particularly about sexuality. She also uncovers the role Eisenstein’s bisexuality played in his creative thinking and identifies his use of the baroque as an important turn toward excess and hybrid forms. Beautifully illustrated with rare photographs, In Excess provides the most complete genealogy available of major shifts in this modern master’s theories and aesthetics.

Book Cinemachismo

    Book Details:
  • Author : Sergio de la Mora
  • Publisher : University of Texas Press
  • Release : 2009-01-27
  • ISBN : 0292782314
  • Pages : 257 pages

Download or read book Cinemachismo written by Sergio de la Mora and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2009-01-27 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the modern Mexican state came into being following the Revolution of 1910, hyper-masculine machismo came to be a defining characteristic of "mexicanidad," or Mexican national identity. Virile men (pelados and charros), virtuous prostitutes as mother figures, and minstrel-like gay men were held out as desired and/or abject models not only in governmental rhetoric and propaganda, but also in literature and popular culture, particularly in the cinema. Indeed, cinema provided an especially effective staging ground for the construction of a gendered and sexualized national identity. In this book, Sergio de la Mora offers the first extended analysis of how Mexican cinema has represented masculinities and sexualities and their relationship to national identity from 1950 to 2004. He focuses on three traditional genres (the revolutionary melodrama, the cabaretera [dancehall] prostitution melodrama, and the musical comedy "buddy movie") and one subgenre (the fichera brothel-cabaret comedy) of classic and contemporary cinema. By concentrating on the changing conventions of these genres, de la Mora reveals how Mexican films have both supported and subverted traditional heterosexual norms of Mexican national identity. In particular, his analyses of Mexican cinematic icons Pedro Infante and Gael García Bernal and of Arturo Ripstein's cult film El lugar sin límites illuminate cinema's role in fostering distinct figurations of masculinity, queer spectatorship, and gay male representations. De la Mora completes this exciting interdisciplinary study with an in-depth look at how the Mexican state brought about structural changes in the film industry between 1989 and 1994 through the work of the Mexican Film Institute (IMCINE), paving the way for a renaissance in the national cinema.

Book Eisenstein  Cinema  and History

Download or read book Eisenstein Cinema and History written by James Goodwin and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among early directors, Sergei Eisentein stands alone as the maker of a fully historical cinema. James Goodwin treats issues of revolutionary history and historical representation as central to an understanding of Eisentein's work, which explores two movements within Soviet history and consciousness: the Bolshevik Revolution and the Stalinist state. Goodwin articulates intersections between Eisentein's ideas and aspects of the thought of Walter Benjamin, Georg Lukács, Ernst Bloch, and Bertolt Brecht. He also shows how the formal properties and filmic techniques of each work reveal perspectives on history . Individual chapters focus on Strike, Battleship Potemkin, October, Old and New, projects of the 1930s, Alexander Nevsky, and Ivan the Terrible.

Book Cinema of Solitude

    Book Details:
  • Author : Charles Ramírez Berg
  • Publisher : University of Texas Press
  • Release : 2010-07-05
  • ISBN : 0292791925
  • Pages : 265 pages

Download or read book Cinema of Solitude written by Charles Ramírez Berg and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-05 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La crisis, a period of political and economic turmoil in Mexico that began in the late 1960s, spawned a new era in Mexican cinema. Known as el Nuevo Cine (the New Cinema), these films presented alienated characters caught in a painful transition period in which old family, gender, and social roles have ceased to function without being replaced by viable new ones. These are the films explored by Charles Ramírez Berg in Cinema of Solitude, the first book-length critical study of Mexican cinema in English. Berg discusses the major films and filmmakers of el Nuevo Cine in depth. He analyzes dozens of commercial movies, from popular comedies and adventures to award-winning films. Introductory chapters address the issue of mexicanidad (Mexican national identity) and outline Mexican history, the history of film as popular culture and as a leading national industry, and the ideological dynamics of Mexican cinema. In thematically arranged chapters, Berg investigates the images of women, men, and social structures portrayed in New Cinema films. He finds that women characters have begun to reject traditional stereotypes for more positive images, while male characters have grown ambiguous and undefined as machismo is abandoned. Other chapters trace the continuing marginalization of Indians in Mexican culture, the changes in male dominance within the family, and the disruptive social and economic effects caused by migration. For everyone interested in Mexican culture as reflected in its major cinematic productions, as well as students of film theory and national cinemas, this book will be important reading.
