Black feminist culture and black masculinity -- Afterword -- Bibliography -- Filmography -- IndexA philosopher-filmmaker, Kathleen Collins decisively redefined the parameters of African American film with The Cruz Brothers and Miss Malloy (1980) and Losing Ground (1982). This book uses detailed analyses of Collins’s films to contextualise her work in the African American, feminist and world film traditions, and it highlights her contribution to each of these canons. Exploring the philosophical aspects of Collins’s films and placing her in a genealogy of African American auteurs, Geetha Ramanathan argues that Collins uses film to integrate diverse elements of African American culture, showing how the medium can transform the visual and become a site of convergence for ideas on philosophy, otherness, art, aesthetics and the craft of filmmakingVisionaries (Edinburgh University Press)African Americans in motion picturesMotion picturesProduction and directionPerforming ArtsFilmDirection & ProductionAfrican Americans in motion pictures.Motion picturesProduction and direction.791.430233092Ramanathan Geetha687880UkMaJRUBOOK9910377436203321Kathleen Collins2047404UNINA01284oam 2200409zu 450 99628113590331620210807002706.01-4673-5019-2(CKB)3280000000025609(SSID)ssj0001106877(PQKBManifestationID)12510415(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001106877(PQKBWorkID)11074025(PQKB)11759686(NjHacI)993280000000025609(EXLCZ)99328000000002560920160829d2012 uy engur|||||||||||txtccr2012 IEEE International Conference on Power and Energy (PECon)[Place of publication not identified]IEEE20121 online resource illustrationsBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph1-4673-5017-6 Electric power distributionCongressesElectric power systemsControlCongressesElectric power distributionElectric power systemsControl621PQKBPROCEEDING9962811359033162012 IEEE International Conference on Power and Energy (PECon)2540638UNISA
