From The Artist to The White Ribbon, from Oscar to Palme d »Or-winning productions, European filmmaking is more prominent, world-wide, than ever before. This book identifies the distinctive character of European cinema, both in films and as a critical concept, asking: what place does European cinema have in an increasingly globalized world? Including in-depth analyses of production and reception contexts, as well as original readings of key European films from leading experts in the field, it re-negotiates traditional categories such as auteurism, art cinema and national cinemas. As the first publication to explore »Europeanness » in cinema, this book refocuses and updates historically significant areas of study in relation to this term. Leading scholars in European cinema – including Thomas Elsaesser, Tim Bergfelder, Anne Jackel, Lucy Mazdon and Ginette Vincendeau – acknowledge the transnational character of European filmmaking whilst also exploring the oppositions between European and Hollywood filmmaking, considering the value of the »European » label in the circulation of films within and beyond the continent.
The Europeanness of European Cinema makes a lively, timely intervention in the fields of European and transnational film studies.
