Contact seller5-star sellervery good dust-jacket, lightly scuffed and rubbed, cover price $6.50, very good black hardcover, top foredge lightly soiled. OHLIN, PETER H. Agee. New York: Ivan Obolensky, 1966, stated First Edition, 247pp., . Critical study dealing primarily with the aestethic problems confronted by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author. - CONTENT…S: Honest and lovely and a little clear poetry -- An effort in human actuality Let us now praise famous men -- San day, indeed film criticism -- Fiction and unrehearsed reality film scripts -- Literature as transfigured reality fiction -- Write when, all, and what you can conclusion. - Notes - Bibliography - PETER OHLIN was born in 1935 in Stockholm Sweden. He graduated from the University of Stockholm and later got his Master's degree in Literature there. His last year there, he was president of the University Film Society. After attending the Salzburg Seminar in American Studies in 1958, he was determined to study in the United States. He received a scholarship from the Sweden-America Foundation for a year of study at the University of Kansas. The next year he was offered a position as teaching assist ant at the University of New Mexico where he received a Master's degree in 1962 and his Ph.D. in 1964. He is presently a lecturer at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. Mr. Ohlin first became aware of James Agee through film criticism, a longtime interest of his. In 1962, on the basis of LET US NOW PRAISE FAMOUS MEN, he decided upon Agee as his dissertation subject because he felt not only that he was inadequately appreciated as a serious writer but that his was a challenging presence which demanded a personal response. Mr. Ohlin is married and at present working on a book of film criticism. - Very rarely has the literary scene been graced with the talents of precision and originality as it was in the years that James Agee contributed his poetic touch. A posthumous Pulitzer Prize for his great novel A Death in the Family crowned his efforts and brought him universal acclamation. A critic of outstanding perception, Agee nevertheless mastered the substance and form of the subject he criticised. In addition to many unpublished works, the range of his gift extended also to poetry (Permit Me Voyage), journalism (Let Us Now Praise Famous Men), and the short novel (The Morning Watch). His critical reviews and film scripts incorporated in the volumes Agee on Film I and Agee on Film II remain prime refer-ence works on this writer who continues to rise to the heights of a generation of writing that was too slow to accept or understand him. In this, the first critical study of Agee's work, Peter Ohlin seeks to place and relate Agee's splendid work. This out standing critical review of Agee's work deals primarily with the aesthetic prob lems that he confronted in his absolute commitment to the holiness of human reality and his refusal to become part of a literary fashion.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Ingmar Bergman's film Persona (1966) is considered both one of his greatest masterpieces and his most enigmatic and abstract film. The highly influential film achieved global critical acclaim and has been the subject of numerous studies and interpretations. In Wordless Secrets, a ground-brea…king new study of Persona, Peter Ohlin asserts that the essential Swedish context of the film has been overlooked by Bergman's international audience which has mistakenly preferred to focus on the abstract and metaphysical aspects of Persona. By repatriating the discussion of Persona to its Swedish context Peter Ohlin argues that: *the film's setting is seen not just as a barren rocky shore, but as a landscape with people who live and work there and whose marginalization is not metaphysical but immediate and political as well as cultural.*the profession of the nurse is not accidental, nor only symbolic: Alma's confusion may in part stem from the transformation of the nursing profession in the 1960s in Sweden *the Holocaust photograph from the Warsaw ghetto: it is not just an image of total violence and cruelty, but also alludes to the Swedish guilt over neutrality in the face of Nazi war crimes In addition, the book discusses the relationship of Bergman's radical attack on formal cinematic language in Persona to Swedish and international modernism, as well as the institutional incorporation of Bergman and his work in the cinematic canon. In Wordless Secrets, a ground-breaking new study of Persona, Peter Ohlin asserts that the essential Swedish context of the film has been overlooked by Bergman's international audience which has mistakenly preferred to focus on the abstract and metaphysical aspects of Persona.
