That volume was a pioneer among collections of university poetry, and the success which it achieved fully justified the courage and re- warded the labor, which was great, of Professor Bruce Weirick in editing it. For some years now' the edition has been exhausted, and the book is permanently out of print. In coming before the public for the second time the Poetry Society stands less in need of introduction. Those who are familiar with the older book will recognize some of the authors in the new, we hope with pleasure; and we have no doubt that they will regret the absence of others. Still there would be little excuse for publishing this book were it not for the new names which here bear witness to the fact that the Poetry Society is a living institution.

    Dr. Philip Cowan Creative Industries Research Institute, Faculty of Creative Industries, University of South Wales, Atrium Campus, Cardiff, CF24 2FN, UK This is the final submitted version of the published article*; Cowan, P. (2017) “Analyzing Stylistic Patterning in Film to Establish the Cinematographer as Coauthor: A Case Study of Gregg Toland” in Projections: The Journal for Movies and the Mind 11:1. S. Prince (ed.), pp. 16-37. New York: Berghahn Journals, ISSN: 1934-9688. *This version includes thirty-four figures, as opposed to the six included in the published article. Analyzing Stylistic Patterning in Film to Establish the Cinematographer as a Co-Author: A Case Study of Gregg Toland Abstract Can the authorial contribution of the individual cinematographer to classical, narrative-based film be identified and attributed? This article addresses this specific question, but the specific case of the cinematographer must acknowledge the wider debates about film authorship. The article examines contemporary attitudes to co-authorship in film, highlighting the fact that, in terms of cinematography, most commentators still defer to directors when discussing the creation of meaning within images. While examining the works of Gregg Toland and William Wyler, the article evaluates authorial attribution by means of a comparison between the films they made together and the films they made separately. In order to do this, the article defines a method for establishing authorship within the film image. Toland is a prime historical example of a cinematographer whose authorial contribution has been severely underestimated in the pursuit of glorifying the directors he worked with (Orson Welles, John Ford, and William Wyler).
