Storia del cinema giapponese nel nuovo millennio
Con l’ingresso nel nuovo millennio il mondo cinematografico giapponese ha ampliato notevolmente il suo panorama, in particolare grazie alla diffusione definitiva del digitale e all’apertura del mercato interno rispetto alle produzioni indipendenti, confermando l’arcipelago tra i Paesi con il numero più alto di film distribuiti annualmente. A questo si aggiunge un’ibridazione sempre più capillare tra i differenti media, elemento di arricchimento costante e in continua evoluzione. La commistione tra linguaggi prima esclusivi del cinema, del fumetto, dell’animazione o dei videogame ha portato alla creazione di nuove tendenze espressive oggi molto amate in Occidente e ha al contempo ...

Promiscuous Media
In Promiscuous Media, Hikari Hori makes a compelling case that the visual culture of Showa-era Japan articulated urgent issues of modernity rather than serving as a simple expression of nationalism. Hori makes clear that the Japanese cinema of the time was in fact almost wholly built on a foundation of Russian and British film theory as well as American film genres and techniques. Hori provides a range of examples that illustrate how maternal melodrama and animated features, akin to those popularized by Disney, were adopted wholesale by Japanese filmmakers. Emperor Hirohito's image, Hori argues, was inseparable from the development of mass media; he was the first emperor whose public appearances were covered by media ranging from postcards to radio broadcasts. Worship of the emperor through viewing his image, Hori shows, taught the Japanese people how to look at images and primed their enjoyment of early animation and documentary films alike. Promiscuous Media links the political and the cultural closely in a way that illuminates the nature of twentieth-century Japanese society.
