Download or read book O cinema pensa written by Julio Cabrera and published by Editora Rocco. This book was released on 2006-04-18 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Para Julio Cabrera, grandes diretores como Ingmar Bergman, Alain Resnais, Stanley Kubrick ou mesmo Steven Spielberg não são apenas cineastas, são filósofos. No livro O cinema pensa – uma introdução à filosofia através dos filmes, o autor defende sua teoria de que os longas-metragens, mais do que experiências estéticas ou produtos de lazer para as massas, são conceitos-imagem, ferramentas poderosas para a exposição e a discussão de questões caras à humanidade. Seguindo esse raciocínio, Cabrera discute Roman Polanski com base em Santo Tomás de Aquino, compara Michelangelo Antonioni a Descartes, analisa Wim Wenders sob a ótica de Hegel e estabelece um paralelo entre Nietzsche e Oliver Stone, por exemplo. Kant dialoga com o Peter Weir de Sociedade dos poetas mortos e o Fred Zinnemann de O homem que não vendeu sua alma, quando o assunto é liberdade. Hegel joga luz sobre os conceitos-imagem de Paris, Texas, de Wim Wenders, Império do Sol, de Steven Spielberg, O turista acidental, de Lawrence Kasdan, e Hiroshima meu amor, de Alain Resnais. Cabrera também disseca os filmes de Clint Eastwood, Lindsay Anderson, Ridley Scott, Ingmar Bergman, Frank Darabont, Roman Polanski e tantos outros. O resultado é uma análise apurada da cultura contemporânea sob a luz da filosofia.

Download or read book Semiotics Law Art written by Eduardo C.B. Bittar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-03 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an interdisciplinary study of the relation between semiotics, law & art. Focusing on Greimasian semiotics, it examines specific works of art (from Giotto to Banksy) that deal with the theme of justice, promoting a more sensitive and humanized perception of the values that surround law. The book offers readers a comprehensive review of the semiotics of law, critically examining the relation between law & art. It covers a variety of topics, including semiotics, law and art; semiotics, art and experience; and society, law and art, as well as semiotics, law and painting; semiotics, law and architecture; semiotics, law and theatre; semiotics, law and literature; and semiotics, law and culture. In doing so, it uses the semiotics of painting to explain the symbology of justice and its significance in history; the semiotics of architecture to explain the setting of justice; the semiotics of theatre to explain the logic of the legal process; and the semiotics of literature to explain the narrative logic of legal decisions. Lastly, drawing on the semiotics of culture, it discusses ways of promoting justice, citizenship and human rights. Written from both philosophical and semiotical perspectives, the book enhances the centrality of visual jurisprudence studies to promote a better understanding of the role of law.

Movies and Mental Illness, written by an eminent clinical psychologist (who is also a movie aficionado), has established a reputation as a uniquely enjoyable and highly memorable text for learning about psychopathology. This new edition has been completely revised to explore current issues, such as children's screentime and celebrities with mental illness, and to include the numerous films that have been released since the last edition. The core clinical chapters raise provocative questions about differential diagnosis (according to the DSM-5 and ICD-11) for the primary characters portrayed in the films. Included are also a full index of films; sample course syllabus; ratings of close to 1,500 films; fascinating appendices, such as "Top 50 Heroes and Villains," psychotherapists in movies, and misconceptions about mental illness in movies. Accompanying the new edition are downloadable resources for teachers that include critical questions and topics for discussion, as well as fabricated case histories based on movie characters with Mini-Mental State Examinations that help explain, teach, and encourage discussion about important mental health disorders. In addition, the author plans a regular series of online "Spotlights" articles that will critically examine the psychological content of new movies as they are released.

Download or read book Conversando com os filmes written by Pablo González Blasco and published by SOBRAMFA Educação Médica & Humanismo. This book was released on 2020-12-14 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conversando com os Filmes, é o resultado de um processo reflexivo que utiliza o cinema como pista de decolagem. Um fascinante mergulho pelas histórias do cinema contextualizado ao raciocínio de maneira clara e acessível.Para o autor, Pablo González Blasco, que há mais de duas décadas utiliza o cinema como recurso educacional, na medicina, seu campo profissional, e na vida, a interação com os filmes é uma verdadeira aventura. O que se diz na tela e o que se intui, estabelece um diálogo com a consciência, onde a memória das vivências, a cultura que nos cerca, são o pano de fundo para inúmeras considerações. O que impacta não é apenas o que o filme descreve, mas sim algo a mais que transita no meio, entre os fotogramas e o pensamento do espectador, e dispara a reflexão. Conversando com os Filmes, não é uma coletânea de críticas. Fala-se, sim, dos filmes, porém, os comentários recolhidos são o resultado de uma análise, entre o que o cinema traz, e o que o espectador pensa e evoca. Uma experiência estética que nos faz acordar para o humano, nos leva a refletir, nos humaniza.
Download or read book The Moving Form of Film written by Lúcia Nagib and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-05-12 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Moving Form of Film: Historicizing the Medium through Other Media charts the ways in which crossing borders between film and other arts and media can provide an encompassing, inclusive, and non-teleological understanding of film history. Evolutionary narratives of cinema have traditionally adopted the Second World War as a watershed that separates 'classical' Hollywood films from 'modern' European productions, a scheme that subjects the entire world to the cinematic history of two hegemonic centres. In turn, histories of film as a technological medium have focused on the specificity of cinema as it gradually separated from the other art and medial forms - theatre, dance, fairground spectacle, painting, literature, still photography and other pre-cinematic modes. Taking an ambitious step forward with relation to these approaches, this book focuses on the fluid quality of the film form by exploring an array of exciting and often neglected artistic expressions worldwide as they compare and interconnect films across temporal, geographical, and cultural borders. By observing the ebb and flow of film's contours within the bounds of other artistic and medial expressions, the chapters aspire to establish a flexible historical platform for the moving form of film, posited, from production to consumption, as a transforming and transformative medium.

Download or read book Complement Clauses in Portuguese written by Ana Lúcia Santos and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses core issues on complement clauses, focusing on Portuguese (European, Brazilian and Mozambican varieties). It contributes to the discussion of complementation, providing an overview of how theoretical syntax and acquisition studies may combine to broaden our knowledge about the topic. The articles are organized in two sections, each one followed by a comment paper: the first section, more theoretical in its nature, gathers contributions analyzing major syntactic aspects of complementation in Portuguese, from a synchronic and a diachronic point of view; the second section includes articles on L1 and L2 acquisition of Portuguese complementation. Both sections especially focus on infinitival structures; mood selection and the interpretation of subjects in finite complement clauses are also topics of particular relevance. The volume is meant for researchers and students interested in formal syntax and acquisition in general and Portuguese syntax and acquisition in particular.

Download or read book Identity Mediations in Latin American Cinema and Beyond written by Cecilia Nuria Gil Mariño and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-09-12 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The appearance of sound film boosted entertainment circuits around the world, drawing cultural cartographies that forged images of spaces, nations and regions. By the late 1920s and early ‘30s, film played a key role in the configuration of national and regional cultural identities in incipient mass markets. Over the course of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, this transmedia logic not only went unthreatened, but also intensified with the arrival of new media and the development of new technologies. In this respect, this book strikes a dialogue between analyses that reflect the flows and transits of music, films and artists, mainly in the Ibero-American space, although it also features essays on Soviet and Asian cinema, with a view to exploring the processes of configuration of cultural identities. As such, this work views national borders as flexible spaces that permit an exploration of the appearance of transversal relations that are part of broader networks of circulation, as well as economic, social and political models beyond the domestic sphere.

Download or read book Cinema Slavery and Brazilian Nationalism written by Richard A. Gordon and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2015-01-20 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique contribution to film studies, Richard Gordon's Cinema, Slavery, and Brazilian Nationalism is the first full-length book on Brazilian films about slavery. By studying Brazilian films released between 1976 and 2005, Gordon examines how the films both define the national community and influence viewer understandings of Brazilianness. Though the films he examines span decades, they all communicate their revised version of Brazilian national identity through a cinematic strategy with a dual aim: to upset ingrained ways of thinking about Brazil and to persuade those who watch the films to accept a new way of understanding their national community. By examining patterns in this heterogeneous group of films, Gordon proposes a new way of delineating how these films attempt to communicate with and change the minds of audience members. Gordon outlines five key aspects that each film incorporates, which describe their shared formula for and role in constructing social identity. These elements include the ways in which the films attempt to create links between the past and the viewers' present and their methods of encouraging viewers to identify with their protagonists, who are often cast as a prototype for the nation. By aligning themselves with this figure, viewers arrive at a definition of their national identity that, while Afrocentric, also promotes racial and ethnic inclusiveness. Gordon's innovative analysis transcends the context of his work, and his conclusions can be applied to questions of national identity and film across cultures.
