    The Individual and the Crowd in Jia Zhangke's Films Jung Koo Kim A

    Goldsmiths College University of London Cinema of Paradox: The Individual and the Crowd in Jia Zhangke’s Films Jung Koo Kim A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to the department of Media and Communications August 2016 1 DECLARATION I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person nor material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma of the university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgment has been made in the text. Signed…… …………… Date….…10-Aug.-2016…… 2 ABSTRACT This thesis attempts to understand Chinese film director Jia Zhangke with the concept of “paradox.” Challenging the existing discussions on Jia Zhangke, which have been mainly centered around an international filmmaker to represent Chinese national cinema or an auteur to construct realism in post-socialist China, I focus on how he deals with the individual and the crowd to read through his oeuvre as “paradox.” Based on film text analysis, my discussion develops in two parts: First, the emergence of the individual subject from his debut feature film Xiao Wu to The World; and second, the discovery of the crowd from Still Life to his later documentary works such as Dong and Useless. The first part examines how the individual is differentiated from the crowd in Jia’s earlier films under the Chinese social transformation during the 1990s and 2000s. For his predecessors, the collective was central not only in so-called “leitmotif” (zhuxuanlü or propaganda) films to enhance socialist ideology, but also in Fifth Generation films as “national allegory.” However, what Jia pays attention to is “I” rather than “We.” He focuses on the individual, marginal characters, and the local rather than the collective, heroes, and the national.

    MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY Oral History Collection OH109: WAYZATA ELEMENTARY STRING PROGRAM ORAL HISTORY PROJECT Oral History Interviews OVERVIEW OF THE RECORDS Creator: Wayzata Elementary String Program Oral History Project. Title: Oral history interviews of the Wayzata Elementary String Program Oral History Project. Dates: 2001 January – 2002 January. Quantity: 27 sound cassettes (90 min. each); 27 transcripts in 29 folders Location: See Detailed Description section for locations. SCOPE AND CONTENTS OF THE RECORDS Interviews documenting the history of the Wayzata Elementary String Program, offered in the elementary schools of Independent School District 284, Wayzata Public Schools, Wayzata, Minnesota, from 1963 through May 2001. Begun using traditional methods and involving mainly only fifth and sixth grade students, by 1967, the Suzuki approach was being used and students in grades one through six were included. At its height, more than 500 children were involved, roughly fifteen percent of the elementary population in grades kindergarten through five. Support was given by the Wayzata String Boosters. The program was eliminated in May 2001 due to budget constraints. The narrators are program teachers, administrators, participants, or parents of participants; the interview record their impressions, anecdotes and memories of their involvement with the program. The interviewer, Lynne Weber, was a Wayzata Public Schools cello and bass teacher who worked with the program during the 1998-1999 school year. Included with the transcripts are an introduction to the program, with general description and background, outline of the program’s structure, and ensemble photographs; a history of the Suzuki teaching method; a description of the reason for and method used in the oral history program; and a master index of names and topics.
