Description de l'ouvrage :
From her early film studies to her most recent critiques of contemporary pop culture, Chinese Cinema Culture: A Scene in the Fog presents Dai Jinhua’s multiple theoretical moves toward writing difference into the Euro-American discourses current in China today; it is an account of both her interrogation of mainstream Western theories and her eventual flight from them. She searches for a theoretical strategy that enables her to narrate critically the intellectual and gendered film history and culture of the post-Mao and post-Deng eras without sacrificing it to the orientalizing gaze of the West. Her work demonstrates brilliant insights into China’s cinema tradition that is inseparable from both the political legacy of Maoism and current postcolonial order of cultural knowledge. This book includes 11 essays organized in three parts and one dialogue on Chinese cinema culture as the afterword.

Revue de Presse :
"Owing to Dai Jinhua’s pioneering work since the 1990s, complex Chinese social and cultural realities that found no references in contemporary histories have become subject to description, criticism, and analysis through film studies. Chinese Cinema Culture: A Scene in the Fog crowns her achievements, especially in terms of methodological originality. Besides her role in shaping cinema studies in China, her works have also been used as textbooks in other countries." ―Hong Zicheng, Professor of Chinese Literature at Peking University
"To put it somewhat dramatically, Dai Jinhua doesn’t contribute to the field, she is the field―at least insofar as Chinese cinema studies go, she is the trailblazer for much of what has been written since the late 1980s. The importance of this collection of translations is that it enables a dialog with film criticism and scholarship outside China studies."
―Yomi Braester, Professor of Comparative Literature at the University of Washington
