Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Protestants on Screen explores the Protestant contributions to American and European film from the silent era to the present day. The authors analyze how Protestant filmmakers, beliefs, theology, symbols, sensibilities, and cultural patterns have shaped the history of film. Challenging the stereotype of Protestants as world-denouncing-and-defying puritans and iconoclasts who stood in the way of film's maturation as an art, the authors contend thatProtestants were among the key catalysts in the origins and development of film, bringing an identifiably Protestant aesthetic to the medium. The essays in this volume track key Protestant themeslike faith and doubt, sin and depravity, biblical literalism, personal conversion and personal redemption, holiness and sanctification, moralism and pietism, Providence and secularism, apocalypticism, righteousness and justice, religion and race, the priesthood of all believers and its offshoots-democratization and individualism. Protestants, the essays in this volume demonstrate, helped birth and shape the film industry and harness the power of motion pictures for spiritual instruction,edification, and cultural influence.

Condition: Wie Neu. Zustandsbeschreibung: leichte Lagerspuren/near mint. Translating Charles W. Chesnutt's 'Conjure Tales' into Postmodern Systems of Signification. The self-contained concepts of postmodern theories, which are widely accepted today as interpretive tools in literary criticism, produce distorted readings when schematically applied to dialect texts. In order to avoid such predetermined results, Redling?s study focuses on specific characteristics of dialect writing as exemplified in selected stories by the African American writer Charles W. Chesnutt and investigates their potential translation into the terms of postmodern theory. Using George Steiner?s notion of "understanding as translation", it confronts textual passages with theoretical terms, which in turn are tested on Chesnutt?s dialect stories. The two-pronged approach to "understanding" draws on the linguistic distinction between denotation and connotation: in the denotative process, a critic translates phenomena extrapolated from Chesnutt?s dialect texts into postmodern "systems of signification". This process highlights both similarities and points of deviation between the dialect text and the six selected theories (Derrida, Lacan, Foucault, Bakhtin, Iser, and Jameson). A subsequent connotative translation process shows how denotatively restricted postmodern concepts can still advance a theory?s explanatory power by enhancing the imaginative experience of a text. However, this second approach also exposes serious limitations in the use of postmodern theories. Redling concludes that the analysis of literary texts must proceed beyond postmodernism and develop a more broadlybased aesthetic to meet the complexities of dialect texts. 219 Seiten, broschiert (text und theorie; Band 5/Königshausen & Neumann 2006).
