And how can we write a history of this experience? By asking these questions, this study by Hauke Lehmann aims at rethinking our conception of a critical period in US film history - the New Hollywood: as a moment of crisis that can neither be reduced to economic processes of adaption nor to a collection of masterpieces. Rather, the fine-grained analysis of core films reveals the power of cinematic images to affect their audiences - to confront them with the new. The films of the New Hollywood redefine the divisions of the classical genre system in a radical way and thereby transform the way spectators are addressed affectively in the cinema. The study describes a complex interplay between three modes of affectivity: suspense, paranoia, and melancholy. All three, each in their own way, implicate spectators in the deep-seated contradictions of their own feelings and their ways of being in the world: their relations to history, to society, and to cultural fantasy. On this basis, \u003cem\u003eAffect Poetics of the New Hollywood\u003c\/em\u003e projects an original conception of film history: as an affective history which can be re-written up to the present day. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51189110046943,"sku":"9783110776812","price":34.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/xoXWjOOOoh9783110776812.webp?v=1786456303"}],"url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/collections\/hauke-lehmann.oembed","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
