Transcultural Images in Hollywood Cinema

Transcultural Images in Hollywood Cinema discusses how cinema, particularly Hollywood, impacts the cultural identities we construct for ourselves in order to make sense of who we are in the world. The politics of representation in cinema influence the boundaries of ethnic and racial characteristics and invent cultural and symbolic meanings that create a conventional image throughout the world. The transnational perspective, dissolves, fragments, and decentralizes this image, leaving the nationalist understanding of identity to a hybrid form. Cultures and identities that are expanded across borders form a mosaic by combining their local characteristics with those of the host cultures. This book examines the transnational and transcultural characteristics of Hollywood cinema. The narrative, cinematographic, and aesthetic structures of Hollywood cinema are turned upside down as chapters analyze gender, social, cultural, and economic-political contexts. Scholars of international communication, film, and social sciences will find this book particularly interesting.

Communication Theory and Application in Post-Socialist Contexts

While the broader field of communication studies is gaining more global prominence, this is an era when the underrepresented voices are fortunately becoming more recognized. Communication Theory and Application in Post-Socialist Contexts illustrates how Eurasia and Central and Eastern Europe—the post-socialist region—represents a population of more than 400 million who embody a wide array of communication experiences. This book aims to capture significant communication tendencies in several post-socialist countries and situate these tendencies within communication theory and application. It contains the examples of theory-building and adaptation as well as applied projects implemented in national and local contexts. Only by inclusive incorporation of the underrepresented experiences in the field’s discussions can the communication discipline continue to assert its relevance in and for the global community. This book serves as a resource for anyone on the quest of diversifying and globalizing communication studies.

İletişim Araştırmaları ve Film Çözümlemeleri 1

İletişim döngüsüne katılan her bir metin, yeni bir araştırma ve çözümleme evreni sunar. Ürettiklerimiz, devinerek, dönüşerek farklı anlamları taşımaya devam ederler. Günümüz popüler kültürü teknolojinin getirdiği hız ve dijitalleşme ortamı ile bireylere büyük bir yük getirmektedir. Medya ise hem izler kitlesini kaybetmemek amacıyla hem de belirlenmiş ürünlerin satışını sürekli kılabilmek için bireylerin ve kitlelerin düşünce, tutum ve davranışlarını neredeyse tektipleştirmektedir. Oysa bir metnin içinde hem herkesin görebileceği kadar açık, hem de kolay kolay görünmeyecek pek çok anlam gizlidir. Bu çalışma, Nazi filmlerinden, yoğurt reklamlarına, James Bond filmleri çözümlemelerinden, temizlik ürünlerine kadar farklılaşan bir düzlemde, popüler kültür öğelerinin, film konularından, reklam metinlerine varıncaya kadar toplumu ne kadar yoğun bir biçimde etkilediğini ortaya koymaktadır. Kendimizi, çevremizi ve karşılaştığımız iletişim metinlerini daha iyi anlayabilmemiz için gerekli araçları geliştirip kullanmamızı sağladıklarından bu çözümlemeler önemlidir.

Castration Desire

Theorizes an alternative form of masculinity in global literature that is less egocentric and more sustainable, both in terms of gendered and environmental power dynamics. Contemporary novelists and filmmakers like Kazuo Ishiguro (Japanese-British), Emma Donoghue (Irish-Canadian), Michael Ondaatje (Sri Lankan-Canadian), Bong Joon-ho (South Korean) and J.M. Coetzee (South African-Australian) are emblematic of a transnational phenomenon that Robinson Murphy calls “castration desire.” That is, these artists present privileged characters who nonetheless pursue their own diminishment. In promulgating through their characters a less egocentric mode of thinking and acting, these artists offer a...
