        Glück und Unglück der berühmten Moll Flanders

        by Daniel Defoe, William Hogarth, Martha Erler

        In der fiktiven Autobiographie »Moll Flanders« erzählt Defoe die Geschichte einer Frau, die als uneheliche Tochter einer Strafgefangenen im Gefängnis zur Welt kommt, ihre Kinder- und Jugendjahre unter Zigeunern und im Waisenhaus verbringt, um schließlich – vom Traum einer angesehenen bürgerlichen Existenz verlockt – die Möglichkeiten des Londoner Heiratsmarktes gleich mehrfach auszuprobieren: Nach fünf gescheiterten Ehen und schwindender Attraktivität sichert sie ihren Lebensunterhalt durch Diebstähle, häuft nach und nach ein beträchtliches Vermögen an, wird gefaßt, verurteilt und nach Virginia deportiert, von wo sie im Alter von 70 Jahren nach England zurückkehrt, um in ihrer Heimat einen geruhsamen Lebensabend zu verbringen – als wohlhabende »Gentlewoman«.

        Daniel Calparsoro

        by Nuria Triana-Toribio, Ann Davies, Andy Willis

        Daniel Calparsoro, a director who has made a crucial contribution to contemporary Spanish and Basque cinema, has provoked strong reactions from the critics. Reductively dismissed as a works of crude violence by those lamenting a 'lost golden age' of Spanish filmmaking, Calparsoro's films in fact reveal a more complex interaction with trends and traditions in both Spanish and Hollywood cinema. This book is the first full-length study of the director's work, from his early social-realist films set in the Basque Country to his later forays into the genres of the war and horror. It offers an in-depth film-by-film analysis while simultaneously exploring the director's position in the contemporary Spanish context, the tension between directors and critics and the question of national cinema in an area - the Basque Country - of heightened national and regional sensitivities.

        Daniel Calparsoro

        by Ann Davies, Nuria Triana-Toribio, Andy Willis

        Daniel Calparsoro, a director who has provided a crucial contribution to the contemporary scene in Spanish and Basque cinema, has provoked strong reactions from the critics. Reductively dismissed as a purveyor of crude violence by those critics lamenting a 'lost golden age' of Spanish filmmaking, Calparsoro's films reveal in fact a more complex interaction with trends and traditions in both Spanish and Hollywood cinema. This book is the first full-length study of the director's work, from his early social realist films set in the Basque Country to his later forays into the genres of the war and horror film. It offers an in-depth film-by-film analysis, while simultaneously exploring the function of the director in the contemporary Spanish context, the tension between directors and critics, and the question of national cinema in an area - the Basque Country - of heightened national and regional sensitivities. ;
