The ArtsJanuary 2019Robert Bresson
by Keith Reader
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the work of Robert Bresson, one of the most respected and acclaimed directors in the history of cinema.. The first monograph on his work to appear in English for many years dealing not only with his thirteen feature-length films but also his little-seen early short Affaires publiques and his short treatise Notes on cinematography.. The films are considered in chronological order, using a perspective that draws variously on spectator theory, Catholic mysticism, gender theory and Lacanian psychoanalysis.. The major critical responses to his work, from the adulatory to the dismissive, are summarized and analyzed.. The work includes a full filmography and a critical bibliography.

Kept women in Victorian literature
by Katie R. Peel
Readers and Mistresses: Kept Women in Victorian Literature identifies kept mistresses in British Victorian narrative and offers ways to understand their experiences. The author discusses kept women characters in Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist, Elizabeth Gaskell's Mary Barton and Ruth, Anne Brontë's The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, and George Eliot's Daniel Deronda, and examines the methods their authors use to encourage reader empathy. This book also usefully demonstrates how to identify kept women when they are less visible in texts. I look at primary women characters in Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre, Dickens' Hard Times and Dombey and Son, and George Gissing's The Odd Women.

The ArtsDecember 2019Screening the Paris suburbs
From the silent era to the 1990s

Decades before the emergence of a French self-styled 'hood' film around 1995, French filmmakers looked beyond the gates of the capital for inspiration and content. In the Paris suburbs they found an inexhaustible reservoir of forms, landscapes and social types in which to anchor their fictions, from bourgeois villas and bucolic riverside cafés to post-war housing estates and postmodern new towns. For the first time in English, contributors to this volume address key aspects of this long film history, marked by such towering figures as Jean Renoir, Jacques Tati and Jean-Luc Godard. Idyllic or menacing, expansive or claustrophobic, the suburb served divergent aesthetic and ideological programmes across the better part of a century. Themes central to French cultural modernity - class conflict, leisure, boredom and anti-authoritarianism - cut across the fifteen chapters.

Children's & YAThe Barefoot Crew and the Stolen Granny
by Jörg Steinleitner/ Daniela Kohl
Something smells of adventure: summer holidays in the country can be like a whodunnit – where else can you find a missing Granny together with a real treasure and eight bare feet? Jörg Steinleitner brings his readers a true sense of well-being, in a world full of adventure. With varied and powerful illustrations by bestselling illustrator Daniela Kohl. Whoever thinks that summer holidays in the village are boring is mistaken: on the very first day of the holidays, Tanne’s Granny Schnitzel disappears without trace. It’s a good job that Corvin (9), Kiki (10), Ben (10) and Tanne (11) were just about to form a gang: the Barefoot Crew. And soon they have more than just bare feet and a kidnapped Granny to contend with – there’s also a real treasure! A hugely exciting criminal case with a breathtaking natural backdrop, together with varied feel-good factors that prompt readers to dream, discover and share in the story’s thrills. Best-suited for boys and girls aged 8+.
