From the Back Cover
A HITCHCOCK READER
This richly intelligent book, even more indispensable in its new edition, illuminates every facet of Hitchcock's importance as artist, entertainer, and philosopher-poet. Essential for students and ???lm buffs alike.
David Sterritt, Ph.D. Chairman, National Society of Film Critics; Professor Emeritus of Theater and Film, Long Island University
A Hitchcock Reader is an admirably well-assembled entrée to the endless realm of Hitchcock criticism. Film teachers, students, and critics are well-served by this far-ranging collection of essays of lasting value, insightful introductions, and detailed bibliographies.
Sidney Gottlieb, Co-editor, Hitchcock Annual; Professor of Media Studies, Sacred Heart University
With judicious additions and updated introductions, the seminal status of A Hitchcock Reader is established anew. Quite simply, the best anthology available on the master.
Richard Allen, Professor and Chair of Cinema Studies, Tisch School of the Arts, New York University
Alfred Hitchcock, the "Master of Suspense," has been internationally recognized as a technical and stylistic innovator in the history of cinema. A Hitchcock Reader grows out of the editors' desire as classroom teachers for a comprehensive and critical text in introductory or advanced courses devoted to the director's films. Yet the book should also satisfy scholars by providing an updated anthology representing the rich variety of critical responses that Hitchcock's films have evoked over the years.
This new edition of A Hitchcock Reader aims to preserve what has been so satisfying – and successful – in the first edition. This new edition, however, will update scholarship since publication of the first edition; offer entirely new editorial matter, including a general introduction to the volume; more visuals; and comprehensive bibliographies of suggested readings, references, and works cited.
