Bollywood, Bollylite --Epilogue: Anthem for a New India --Notes --Filmography --Bibliography --IndexBollywood is India's most popular entertainment and one of its most powerful social forces. Its blockbusters contest ideas about state formation, capture the nation's dispersed anxieties, and fabricate public fantasies of what constitutes "India." Written by an award-winning scholar of popular culture and postcolonial modernity, Bollywood's India analyzes the role of the cinema's most popular blockbusters in making, unmaking, and remaking modern India. With dazzling interpretive virtuosity, Priya Joshi provides an interdisciplinary account of popular cinema as a space that filters politics and modernity for its viewers. Themes such as crime and punishment, family and individuality, vigilante and community capture the diffuse aspirations of an evolving nation. Summoning India's tumultuous 1970's as an interpretive lens, Joshi reveals the cinema's social work across decades that saw the decline of studios, the rise of the multi-starrer genre, and the arrival of corporate capital and new media platforms. In elegantly crafted studies of iconic and less familiar films, including Awara (1951), Ab Dilli Dur Nahin (1957), Deewaar (1975), Sholay (1975), Dil Se (1998), A Wednesday (2008), and 3 Idiots (2009), Joshi powerfully conveys the pleasures and politics of Bollywood blockbusters.Motion picturesIndiaHistory20th centuryMotion picturesUnited StatesHistory20th centuryIndiaIn motion picturesMotion picturesHistoryMotion picturesHistory791.43/0954Joshi Priya451755MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787435203321Bollywood's India3743917UNINA03784nam 2200709 a 450 991102043640332120200520144314.09786612345821978128234582912823458269780470513347047051334997804705133540470513357(CKB)1000000000377194(EBL)470416(SSID)ssj0000290719(PQKBManifestationID)11215342(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000290719(PQKBWorkID)10248601(PQKB)10571306(MiAaPQ)EBC470416(OCoLC)181160020(Perlego)2753645(EXLCZ)99100000000037719419860411d1986 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrCalcium and the cellChichester ;New York Wiley19861 online resource (312 p.)Ciba Foundation symposium ;122Editors: David Evered (organizer) and Julie Whelan."Symposium on Calcium and the Cell, held at the Ciba Foundation, London, 22-24 October 1985"--p.v."A Wiley-Interscience publication."9780471910886 0471910880 Includes bibliographical references and indexes.CALCIUM AND THE CELL; Contents; Participants; Introduction; Voltage-dependent mechanisms for raising intracellular free calcium concentration: calcium channels; Vol tag e-de pend en t mob i I izat ion of intracellular calcium in skeletal muscle; lnositol trisphosphate and calcium mobilization; The calcium pump of plasma membranes; The sodium-calcium exchange system; Structural and mechanistic implications of the amino acid sequence of calcium- transporting ATPases; General discussion; Calcium binding to skeletal muscle troponin C and the regulation of muscle contractionThe physics and chemistry of the calcium- binding proteinsRegulation of the calcium signal by cal modul in; Smooth muscle: regulation by calcium and phosphorylation; Role of protein kinase C in calcium- mediated signal transduction; Calcium in the action of growth factors; Calcium and the regulation of cytoskeletal assembly, structure and contract i Ii ty; Calcium and exocytosis; Calcium and morphogenetic fields; Index of contributors; Subject indexThis collection of presentations from the Ciba Foundation Symposium of 1985 deals with the central role of calcium in intracellular processes. Discusses control of intracellular calcium as well as control by intracellular calcium, covering such topics as muscle contraction, metabolic processes, hormone and transmitter secretion, membrane transport and permeability, cellular architecture and growth, and the possible contribution of calcium gradients to early embryonic development.
