        Round our way

        Sam Hanna's visual legacy

        by Heather Nicholson

        Sam Hanna (1903-96), a pioneering filmmaker from Burnley, Lancashire, was dubbed the 'Lowry of filmmaking' by BBC broadcaster Brian Redhead in the 1980s. The well-meant label stuck, even though it misses the variety of Hanna's remarkable output. Hanna's intimate glimpses into the lives of strangers enable us to imagine the possible stories that lie behind the images. Away from mid-century exponents of documentary filmmaking and photography, Hanna shows us humanity and a microcosm of a world in change, where his subjects are caught up in issues far beyond their grasp that we, as onlookers years later, encounter and see afresh. Written and curated by historian Heather Norris Nicholson, Round our way combines stills, essays and archive photography to document Hanna's unique visual record on film, particularly in northern England, but also further afield, during decades of profound change.

        Hunter Peak

        by Chen Yingsong

        Through five years of meticulous preparation and hard work in the mountains, the author has gained more than 200,000 words of hard work. In the mountainous area of Shennongjia, Hubei, people believe that people are livestock for two hours a day. In today's world, humans and beasts are upside down, and humans and beasts are mixed, which is exactly what the people of Shennongjia say. In the novel "Hunter Peak", several generations of hunters with Bai Xiu at the core are fighting against the mountain, against the creatures in the mountain, against the people outside the mountain, and in this cruel fight or ups and downs in the changing times. Either twisted, surviving, or dying, they are no longer the objects of praise and worship in the traditional concept, but are also full of contradictions and loss, distortions and sacrifices. The work narrates a battle between humans and beasts encountered with wild boars, a modern legend of deep mountains and old forests, the great poetry of hunting, and the great mystery of survival. All are described and displayed incisively and vividly here.

        In the company of wolves

        Werewolves, wolves and wild children

        by Sam George, Bill Hughes

        In the company of wolves presents further research from the Open Graves, Open Minds Project. It connects together innovative research from a variety of perspectives on the cultural significance of wolves, wild children and werewolves as portrayed in different media and genres. We begin with the wolf itself as it has been interpreted as a cultural symbol and how it figures in contemporary debates about wilderness and nature. Alongside this, we consider eighteenth-century debates about wild children ­- often thought to have been raised by wolves and other animals - and their role in key questions about the origins of language and society. The collection continues with essays on werewolves and other shapeshifters as depicted in folk tales, literature, film and TV, concluding with the transition from animal to human in contemporary art, poetry and fashion.

        Film modernism

        by Sam Rohdie

        This book is at once a detailed study of a range of individual filmmakers and a study of the modernism in which they are situated. It consists of fifty categories arranged in alphabetical order, among which are allegory, bricolage, classicism, contradiction, desire, destructuring and writing. Each category, though autonomous, interacts, intersects and juxtaposes with the others, entering into a dialogue with them and in so doing creates connections, illuminations, associations and rhymes which may not have arisen in a more conventional framework. The author refers to particular films and directors that raise questions related to modernism, and, inevitably, thereby to classicism. Jean-Luc Godard's work is at the centre of the book, though it spreads out, evokes and echoes other filmmakers and their work, including the films of Michelangelo Antonioni, Bernardo Bertolucci, John Ford, Howard Hawks, Alfred Hitchcock, João César Monteiro, Pier Paolo Pasolini and Orson Welles. This innovative and eloquently written text book will be an essential resource for all film students. ;
