Savage Junctures Sergei Eisenstein And the Shape of Thinking

Savage Juncturesprovides fresh insights into Eisenstein's films and writings. It examines the multiple contexts within which his films evolved and Eisenstein's appropriation of all of world culture as his source. Like Eisenstein himself, Anne Nesbet is particularly interested in the possibilities of visual image making and each chapter addresses the problem of his image-based thinking from a different perspective. Each chapter also offers a fundamentally new interpretation of the films and writings that make up his oeuvre. This is a major new contribution to studies in Soviet cinema and culture and to the field of film studies, now available in paperback for the first time.Nesbet, Anne is the author of 'Savage Junctures Sergei Eisenstein And the Shape of Thinking', published 2007 under ISBN 9781845114183 and ISBN 1845114183.
