  • 7. Conclusion: Telefilm, Cross-Media Migration, and the Demise of the Film Serial
    7. Conclusion : Telefilm, Cross-Media Migration, and the Demise of the Film Serial Abstract The conclusion offers an outlook past the 1940s. It places film serials in the context of the shifting cinema landscape in the 1940s and 1950s and the rise of television. The chapter compares the viewer address of film serials to television’s programming in terms of a ‘segmented flow’ and argues that film serials imagined and practiced a televisual mediality before the advent of TV. Serials and television thus became convergent media, which counters the prevalent notion that television killed film serials. The chapter further stresses the adaptability of the film-serial form to varying exhibition and distribution contexts, which helps to explain their continuous reappearance in the multiple ‘new media’ in the second half of the twentieth century and in the digital culture of the twenty-first century. Keywords: television programming, televisual flow, post-WWII film history, independent film production The present moment is an arbitrary one to end a study of film serials. Al- though the heyday of their production is well in the past, serials that were thought to be lost continue to reappear in archives or in private collections. Online fan groups like the serialsquadron.com offer increasing numbers of serials on DVD. Other enthusiasts make them available on youtube or upload them to archive.org, and scholars like Richard Koszarski are making an effort to locate ‘new’ film serials. In the final months of writing, for instance, Pathe’s The House of Hate (1918) was located in Russia, digitalized, and translated back into English.

  • David Fenimore* SINGING COWBOYS on THE
    Iperstoria – Testi Letterature Linguaggi www.iperstoria.it Rivista semestrale ISSN 2281-4582 David Fenimore* SINGING COWBOYS ON THE MOON: SCIENCE FICTION RE-OPENS THE WESTERN FRONTIER When I was six, my great-grandmother, a devout and practical woman who had nurtured three generations of engineers, gave me The Big Book of Space. I was so utterly absorbed by this colorful encyclopedia of “space ships, space station, rockets, equipment” and “star maps” (Hurst) that she followed up by giving me another illustrated children’s book, You Will Go To the Moon. Published in 1959 in the immediate wake of the International Geophysical Year and the launch of Sputnik I, this simply written and earnestly didactic story promoted the friendliness, familiarity, and safety of space travel to impressionable and daydreamy Anglo- American boys such as myself. In it, a little brown-haired, blue-eyed boy – dead ringer for six-year-old me – gazes through a telescope at a full moon over the rolling fields of Midwestern farm country. On the next page, his well-dressed parents are escorting our young hero to the launch facility, which spreads out across a laser-flat plain between dry rocky desert ridges. Arriving on the moon, he encounters a similar landscape, described as "different from earth – no water, no lakes, no trees (…) just deep gray dust" (Freeman 50). He climbs a hill in his space suit and looks out over the moon colony, a cluster of shiny metallic pods and domes spreading across the lunar plain under an outer-space sky. Inside, the off-duty "rocket men" are shown relaxing by watching a Western film, the scene on the screen – a frame within a frame – being a mounted cowboy galloping past a desert mesa, his six-guns blazing (52).

Carlson The Western is often seen as a uniquely American narrative form, one so deeply ingrained as to constitute a national myth. This perception persists despite its inherent shortcomings, among them its inapplicability to the many instances of filmmakers outside the United States appropriating the genre and thus undercutting this view of generic exceptionalism.

  • Television in the Cinema Before 1939: an International Annotated Database, with an Introduction by Richard Koszarski
    Journal of e-Media Studies Volume 5, Issue 1, 2016 Dartmouth College Television in the Cinema Before 1939: An International Annotated Database, with an Introduction by Richard Koszarski Richard Koszarski and Doron Galili Visions of the Future An Introduction by Richard Koszarski Albert Abramson traced the first appearance of the word television to a paper presented in Paris by the Russian electrical engineer Constantin Perskyi on August 25, 1900. Perskyi discussed his own work as well as the contributions of his predecessors, such as Paul Nipkow, and suggested television as a replacement for words like telectroscope, one of many terms already in common use whenever the phenomenon of distant electric vision was under discussion. The International Electricity Congress, which heard the paper, was meeting in Paris that summer because this is where the great Exposition Universelle of 1900 was being held. For film historians, the exposition is renowned for its fabulous array of new projection technologies, involving everything from widescreen and color to talking pictures and Cineorama. Perskyi's linguistic contribution, on the other hand, is remembered only by specialists. One wonders if the proponents of the téléoscope and the téléphote, as they roamed the exposition, gave any thought to these new marvels of the cinema, and asked themselves why their medium still lagged so far behind in every conceivable measure. Seeing at a distance was a notion that had captivated engineers and entrepreneurs since word of Alexander Graham Bell's telephone first began to spread in the late 1870s, yet here it was 1900, and still only in the talking stage? People around the world had been waiting for television for decades, but the engineers had given them the cinema instead, a rival moving-image medium that appeared to have leapt from dream to multinational industry almost overnight.

  • Malcolm Lowry's Poetics of Space
    AND MIGUEL MOTA LANE EDITED BY RICHARD J. Malcolm Lowry’s Poetics of Space offers new and controversial readings that seek to readdress Lowry’s masterpiece Under the Volcano and many of his MALCOLM Lowry’S other writings. With contributions by international Lowry scholars, the collection focuses on Lowry’s spatial dynamics and engages with the P notion of Lowry as a multi-media artist who influenced and was deeply OETICS influenced by a broad range of modernist and postmodernist aesthetic practices. OF Space Acutely aware of the world of film and deeply immersed in a vast range of literary traditions and the avant-garde, Lowry worked within an inter- textual space that transgressed aesthetic boundaries. Malcolm Lowry’s Poetics of Space offers a new approach to the author’s life and work that EDITED BY RICHARD J. LANE AND MIGUEL MOTA will undoubtedly inspire a fresh debate. MALCOLM LOWRY’S POETICS OF SPACE MALCOLM LOWRY’S Richard J. Lane is Professor of English at Vancouver Island University, BC. He directs the Seminar for Advanced Studies in the Humanities and the Literary Theory Research Group at VIU, where he is also the principal investigator of the MeTA Digital Humanities Lab. Lane is also a director of Innovation Island Technology Association, as well as an Associated Researcher at The Electronic Textual Cultures Lab at the University of Victoria. Miguel Mota is Associate Professor of English at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, BC. In addition to his work on Lowry, Mota has published in the areas of contemporary British literature and culture and on the relationship between literature and film, including articles on Jeanette Winterson, John King, Mike Leigh, Derek Jarman, and Peter Greenaway.

  • Urban Vs. Rural in American Identity U.S
    Urban vs. Rural in American Identity U.S. media cultures, 1939-1945 • Revival of a traditional Anglo-American opposition between rural and urban cultures. • Americans (both urban and rural) romanticize "simpler" times of the wild west. • The success of "country and western" music developed as an important new part of U.S. identity. ‣ Romanticized the 19th-c westward expansion of an ethno-centric Anglo-American culture. ‣ Americans learned to value "rugged individualism" as one of the most important and distinctive American virtues.
