Abou-el-Magd, cultural attache, Embassy of the United Arab RepUblic, at the annual Ramadan dinner of the Muslim Students' Assoc- iation of the University of Minnesota Saturday (Jan. 7). Abou-el-Magd is a former professor in the School of Law, University of Cairo, U.A.R. The dinner, marking the Islamic observance of the Month of Ramadan, will be given at 5:15 p.m. at Luther Hall, 1813 University ave. SE., Minneapolis, according to Amin F. El-Dirghamy, president of the organ- ization. The dinner, serving dishes from many countries of the world, will be open to the public, as will Professor Abou-el-Magd's talk, EI-Dirghamy said. Tickets, at $1.75 for adults and $1 for children, may be purchased at the door. There will be no charge for the after-dinner talk. The lunar month of Ramadan---the Islamic period for self-discipline and fasting---this year falls between Dec. 12 and Jan. 12, EI-Dirghamy explained. During this time, Muslims do not eat or drink any liquids during daylight hours. The observance of this month of fasting dates years back 1400/to MOhammed, he said, and has been observed by Muslims through- out the world ever since. As it is lunar-dated, it falls 12 days earlier each calendar year. Because the size of Luther hall's dining facilities is limited to 200, EI-Dirghamy suggested that anyone interested in attending the Ramadan dinner should make advance reservations by calling 331-6494 or 331-2728. -U N S- UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA NEWS SERVICE-220 MORRILL HALL MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55455 TELEPHONE: 373-2137 JA1\TUARY 4, 1967 For further information, contact: GERALD KNOA WANGENSTEEN RESEARCH GRANT IS CONTINUED (FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE) Minneapolis---Research on the physiological and therapeutic relationships of esophagus, stomach and liver will be continued for the next two years at the University of Minnesota under a grant of ~83,057 from the John A. Hartford Foundation, Inc., New York City. Announcement of the award was made today by Ralph W. Burger, foundation president, and Dr. Robert B. Howard, dean of the Uni- versity's College of Medical Sciences. The studies will be directed by Dr. Owen H. Wangensteen, professor and chairman of surgery in the College of Medical Sciences. Dr. Wangensteen and his team of investigators have been doing research in this general area for some eight years, studying methods of treating patients with severe cases of peptic ulcer and damaged livers with gastro-esophageal cooling. Also, under this grant, studies will be made of the use of lasers to suppress gastric secretions. This is the second Hartford Foundation grant made to the University of Minnesota for research in gastric freezing techniques. The first, made in 1964, was for three years and amounted to ~164,787. -U N S- UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA NEWS SERVICE-220 MORRILL HALL MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55455 TELEPHONE: 373-2137 JANUARY 4, 1967 For further information, contact: NANCY PIRSIG FISH CURATOR TO DESCRIBE ALASKA SAlMON PROBLEM (FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE) The curator of fishes at the Minnesota Museum of Natural History will describe the decline of red salmon in Alaska and tell of attempts to halt this decline, in this Sunday's (Jan. 8) program in the museum auditorium at 3 p.m. The talk, which is free and open to the public, will be illustrated by slides. The speaker will be Charles W. Huver, University associate professor of zoology, whose topic will be "Research Efforts to Halt the Decline of Alaskan Salmon." Huver, who has worked for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in Alaska, points out that in the 1890's, the catch of red salmon in Alaska's Karluk river was about 5 million per year. Today, he says, that has dwindled to 200,000 or 300,000 a year. He blames the decline on overfishing, particularly the removal of parent stock after spawning. Huver joined the Minnesota faculty in 1963. He holds a doctor of philosophy degree from Yale University, a master of science degree from the University of Wisconsin and a bachelor of science degree from Michigan State University. -U N S- UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA NEWS SERVICE-220 MORRILL HALL MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55455 TELEPHONE: 373-2137 JAI-JUARY 4, 1967 For further information, contact: NANCY PIRSIG COUNTY HIGHWAY ENGINEERS TO ATTEND 4-DAY 'u' INSTITUTE (FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE) State Highway Department officials will be among the guest speakers when the University of Minnesota holds its 22nd annual Institute for County Highway Engineers Monday through Thursday noon (Jan. 9-12).

References 39 2 1. Abstract This essay represents an attempt to further the understanding of the films by Japanese New Wave director Shohei Imamura through the use of post-colonial theory, and political and cultural contextualisation; it also offers discussion on the inherent issues of discussing non- Western cinema from a Western point-of-view, and how post-colonial theory can be used tentatively by Western writers to prevent the perpetuation of orientalism and the generalisation of non-Western cultures as a single entity simply titled ‘the Other’. This is done through an in-depth exploration of Western film theory’s problematic relationship to Asian cinema, along with disposition and historical contextualisation relevant to Imamura’s films and the Japanese New Wave movement of the 1960s. This is then followed by an analysis on Imamura’s sixth film, The Insect Woman, released in 1963, in which I implement post-colonial theory while also comparing it to Yasujiro Ozu’s 1951 motion picture Early Summer, a film which addresses similar themes but in widely different ways.

Wilson 2015 iii UNSEEN FEMININITY: WOMEN IN JAPANESE NEW WAVE CINEMA Candice N. Wilson, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2015 During the mid-1950s to the early 1970s a subversive cinema, known as the Japanese New Wave, arose in Japan. This dissertation challenges critical trends that use French New Wave cinema and the oeuvre of Oshima Nagisa as templates to construct Japanese New Wave cinema as largely male-centered and avant-garde in its formal aesthetics. I argue instead for the centrality of the erotic woman to a questioning of national and postwar identity in Japan, and for the importance of popular cinema to an understanding of this New Wave movement. In short, this study aims to break new ground in Japanese New Wave scholarship by focusing on issues of gender and popular aesthetics.

    Palgrave Macmillan Memory Studies Series Editors: Andrew Hoskins and John Sutton International Advisory Board: Steven Brown, University of Leicester, UK, Mary Carruthers, New York University, USA, Paul Connerton, University of Cambridge, UK, Astrid Erll,Uni- versity of Wuppertal, Germany, Robyn Fivush, Emory University, USA, Tilmann Habermas, University of Frankfurt am Main, Germany, Jeffrey Olick, University of Virginia, USA, Susannah Radstone, University of East London, UK, and Ann Rigney, Utrecht University, the Netherlands. The nascent field of Memory Studies emerges from contemporary trends that include a shift from concern with historical knowledge of events to that of memory, from ‘what we know’ to ‘how we remember it’; changes in generational memory; the rapid advance of technologies of memory; panic over declining powers of memory, which mirrors our fascination with the possibilities of memory enhancement; and the development of trauma narratives in reshap- ing the past. These factors have contributed to an intensification of public discourses on our past over the last thirty years. Technological, political, interpersonal, social and cultural shifts affect what, how and why people and societies remember and forget. This groundbreaking series tackles questions such as: What is ‘memory’ under these conditions? What are its prospects, and also the prospects for its interdisciplinary and systematic study? What are the conceptual, theoretical and methodological tools for its investigation and illumination?

  • 101 Films for Filmmakers
    101 (OR SO) FILMS FOR FILMMAKERS The purpose of this list is not to create an exhaustive list of every important film ever made or filmmaker who ever lived. That task would be impossible. The purpose is to create a succinct list of films and filmmakers that have had a major impact on filmmaking. A second purpose is to help contextualize films and filmmakers within the various film movements with which they are associated. The list is organized chronologically, with important film movements (e.g. Italian Neorealism, The French New Wave) inserted at the appropriate time. AFI (American Film Institute) Top 100 films are in blue (green if they were on the original 1998 list but were removed for the 10th anniversary list). Guidelines: 1. The majority of filmmakers will be represented by a single film (or two), often their first or first significant one. This does not mean that they made no other worthy films; rather the films listed tend to be monumental films that helped define a genre or period. For example, Arthur Penn made numerous notable films, but his 1967 Bonnie and Clyde ushered in the New Hollywood and changed filmmaking for the next two decades (or more). 2. Some filmmakers do have multiple films listed, but this tends to be reserved for filmmakers who are truly masters of the craft (e.g. Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick) or filmmakers whose careers have had a long span (e.g. Luis Buñuel, 1928-1977). A few filmmakers who re-invented themselves later in their careers (e.g. David Cronenberg–his early body horror and later psychological dramas) will have multiple films listed, representing each period of their careers.
