Dream Projects in Theatre, Novels and Films
Every artist has a dream project an enterprise that he or she has continuously taken up but never completed. Via archived notes and drafts, a retrospective reconstitution of such projects can serve as a key for better understanding the authors artistic corpus. The present study reaches out to the authorship of Paul Claudel, Jean Genet, and Federico Fellini. Claudel deferred and never completed the fourth segment of his Trilogie des Coufontaine. The only indication of the existence of this prospective fourth part of the theatre sequence is a brief entry in his Journal. In 1949, he began writing a third version of his first great work Tête d'Or. Like the unfinished fourth section that was to ...

Screen Tourism and Affective Landscapes
This book explores ways in which screen-based storyworlds transfix, transform, and transport us imaginatively, physically, and virtually to the places they depict or film. Topics include fantasy quests in computer games, celebrity walking tours, dark tourism sites, Hobbiton as theme park, surf movies, and social gangs of Disneyland. How physical, virtual, and imagined locations create a sense of place through their immediate experience or visitation is undergoing a revolution in technology, travel modes, and tourism behaviour. This edited collection explores the rapidly evolving field of screen tourism and the affective impact of landscape, with provocative questions and investigations of social groups, fan culture, new technology, and the wider changing trends in screen tourism. We provide critical examples of affective landscapes across a wide range of mediums (from the big screen to the small screen) and locations. This book will appeal to students and scholars in film and tourism, as well as geography, design, media and communication studies, game studies, and digital humanities.

Fellini, Roma
ROMA non è un "omaggio affettuoso" alla città, un album di ricordi o una cartolina nostalgica, ma il film di Fellini che più di altri ci trascina in una Roma apocalittica, caotica, da fine del mondo: l'ingorgo sul Grande Raccordo Anulare, le rovine negli scavi della metropolitana, il défilé di moda ecclesiastica, la scorribanda notturna dei motociclisti, sono scene che fanno ormai parte dell'immaginario della città e che all'alba degli anni Settanta intercettano, nella chiave dell'invenzione felliniana, la sua progressiva trasformazione in un magma metropolitano sempre più ingestibile. Attraverso una vasta documentazione e lo studio di materiali d'archivio, il volume analizza il film alla luce dei discorsi sul mito e il disfacimento di Roma che da sempre attraversano il carattere nazionale e l'identità italiana.
