Paris 20 Treasured Boutiques
Paris has its share of magical, treasured places that we would almost like to keep for ourselves. Rich in anecdotes, this book is the fruit of a rigorous selection process, with each of these 20 boutiques, chosen for their extraordinary and unknown history. These stories have been carefully researched and polished by Charlotte. Written from the heart by a Parisian, a guide that makes you want to celebrate the City of Light!
The Films of Arturo Ripstein
This book gathers eleven scholarly contributions dedicated to the work of Mexican director Arturo Ripstein. The collection, the first of its kind, constitutes a sustained critical engagement with the twenty-nine films made by this highly acclaimed yet under-studied filmmaker. The eleven essays included come from scholars whose work stands at the intersection of the fields of Latin American and Mexican Film Studies, Gender and Queer Studies, Cultural Studies, History and Literary studies. Ripstein’s films, often scripted by his long-time collaborator, Paz Alicia Garciadiego, represent an unprecedented achievement in Mexican and Latin American film. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Ripstein has successfully maintained a prolific output unmatched by any director in the region. Though several book-length studies have been published in Spanish, French, German, and Greek, to date no analogue exists in English. This volume provides a much-needed contribution to the field.
Paris, 20 boutiques mythiques

Ce guide est le fruit d’une enquête et d’une sélection rigoureuse : chacune de ces boutiques de caractère que peu de parisiens connaissent a été choisie au coup de cœur, de par son histoire extraordinaire. Et son histoire, justement, a été approfondie et polie sous la plume de Charlotte. Le guide d’une parisienne écrit avec le cœur !
No Man an Island
Taiwan is a peculiar place resulting in a peculiar cinema, with Hou Hsiao-hsien being its most remarkable product. Hou’s signature long and static shots almost invite critics to give auteurist readings of his films, often privileging the analysis of cinematic techniques at the expense of the context from which Hou emerges. In this pioneering study, James Udden argues instead that the Taiwanese experience is the key to understanding Hou’s art. The convoluted history of Taiwan in the last century has often rendered fixed social and political categories irrelevant. Changing circumstances have forced the people in Taiwan to be hyperaware of how imaginary identity—above all national identit...
Film and Counterculture in the 2011 Egyptian Uprising
This book examines how film articulates countercultural flows in the context of the Egyptian Revolution. The book interrogates the gap between radical politics and radical aesthetics by analyzing counterculture as a form, drawing upon Egyptian films produced between 2010 and 2016. The work offers a definition of counterculture which liberates the term from its Western frame and establishes a theoretical concept of counterculture which is more globally redolent. The book opens a door for further research of the Arab Uprising, arguing for a new and topical model of rebellion and struggle, and sheds light on the interaction between cinema and the street as well as between cultural narratives and politics in the context of the 2011 Egyptian uprising. What is counterculture in the twenty-first century? What role does cinema play in this new notion of counterculture?
