Zustand: New. Miri Nakamura examines bodily metaphors such as doppelgangers and robots that were ubiquitous in the literature of imperial Japan. Reading them against the historical rise of the Japanese empire, she argues they must be understood in relation to the most "monstrous" body of all in modern Japan: the carefully constructed image of the empire itself.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - One hundred years ago Freud's definition of the uncanny was 'not the strange, but the familiar become strange'. In this anthology of new work from a range of writers and academics, the uncanny is a place where you feel at home - until home turns against you. It's a city where the streets can't join up. The uncanny alienates your own body from you through medical advances, such as prosthetic limbs or cardiac defibrillators. The 'uncanny valley' is a landscape where robots try to imitate you.This anthology gets beneath the skin and into the depths of what it means to be human in an age of machines and genes. Featuring papers and stories from Pippa Goldschmidt, Gill Haddow, Fadhila Mazanderani, Jane Alexander, Ruth Aylett, Christine De Luca, Vassilis Galanos, Jules Horne, Donna McCormack, Aoife S. McKenna, Jane McKie, nicky melville, Dilys Rose, Naomi Salman, Helen Sedgwick, Sarah Stewart, Alice Tarbuck, Clare Uytman, Sara Wasson, Neil Williamson and Eris Young.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In 1931 Universal Pictures released Dracula and Frankenstein, two films that inaugurated the horror genre in Hollywood cinema. These films appeared directly on the heels of Hollywood's transition to sound film. Uncanny Bodies argues that the coming of sound inspired more in these massively influential horror movies than screams, creaking doors, and howling wolves. A close examination of the historical reception of films of the transition period reveals that sound films could seem to their earliest viewers unreal and ghostly. By comparing this audience impression to the first sound horror films, Robert Spadoni makes a case for understanding film viewing as a force that can powerfully shape both the minutest aspects of individual films and the broadest sweep of film production trends, and for seeing aftereffects of the temporary weirdness of sound film deeply etched in the basic character of one of our most enduring film genres.…
