Welcome to the 2016 EUP Film Studies catalogue!
K We’re very excited to introduce our new books
OO to you, and once again we have a large frontlist which ranges across film genre, film-philosophy,
TEXTB world cinema, American cinema and aesthetics. The Edinburgh Studies in Film and Intermediality series launches an impressive seven new books over the next year, led by Indefinite Visions which is edited by Martine Beugnet and Allan Cameron. It examines the aesthetics, concepts and politics of chaotic and obscured moving images, and promises to be an innovative and fascinating book. Fans of Martine’s previous EUP book, Cinema and Sensation will be thrilled to see this new edited collection from her and Allan! G
N Meanwhile, in the Traditions in American Cinema series, we’ll be
MI publishing the much-anticipated Indie Reframed, edited by Linda CO Badley, Claire Perkins and Michele Schreiber. This ambitious work TH aims to expand the parameters of how American independent OR F cinema is currently understood by investigating the impact women filmmakers have had and continue to have within the indie realm. We will also publish our first film-philosophy textbook in 2016 – Deleuze’s Cinema Books: Three Introductions to the Taxonomy of Images by David Deamer. Aimed at those studying Deleuzian approaches to film for the first time, it will help to develop students’ understanding of Deleuze’s taxonomies and the ways in which they can be applied to film. On a personal note, those of you who know of my love for horror cinema won’t be surprised to hear how excited I am about several of our new books in aesthetics and genre cinema – Extreme Cinema by Aaron Kerner and Jonathan Knapp, Italian Horror Cinema edited
EW by Stefano Baschiera and Russ Hunter, Contemporary Spanish Gothic N by Ann Davies and (with possibly my favourite cover ever!) Undead Apocalypse by Stacey Abbott. Finally, to EUP’s enormous delight, Michele Aaron won the Kraszna- Krausz Best Moving Image Book Award for Death and the Moving Image in 2015. Congratulations Michele!

In recent years some of the most innovative European and American EW N art film directors have made films that place the spectator in a position of intense discomfort, sometimes by withholding information, through shock or seduction. Analysing films by directors such as Lars von Trier, Gus Van Sant, Claire Denis and Michael Haneke, this book explores why we are attracted to these unpleasurable viewing experiences, what directors believe they can achieve via the feel-bad experience and how we can situate the films in intellectual history.
