Kahn's vast photo-cinematographic experiment preserved world memory through the privileged lens of everyday life, and Counter-Archive situates this project in its biographic, intellectual, and cinematic contexts. Tracing the archive's key influences, such as the philosopher Henri Bergson, the geographer Jean Brunhes, and the biologist Jean Comandon, Paula Amad maps an alternative landscape of French cultural modernity in which vitalist philosophy cross-pollinated with early film theory, documentary film with the avant-garde, cinematic models of temporality with the early Annales school of history, and film's appropriation of the planet with human geography and colonial ideology. At the heart of the book is an insightful meditation upon the transformed concept of the archive in the age of cinema and an innovative argument about film's counter-archival challenge to history. The first comprehensive study of Kahn's films, Counter-Archive also offers a vital historical perspective on debates involving archives, media, and memory. 410 0$aFilm and Culture Series 606 $aActualities (Motion pictures) - History and criticism 606 $aActualities (Motion pictures) -- History and criticism 606 $aArchives de la Planete 606 $aArchives de la Plane?te 606 $aKahn, Albert 606 $aKahn, Albert, 1860-1940 608 $aElectronic books. 615 4$aActualities (Motion pictures) - History and criticism. 615 4$aActualities (Motion pictures) -- History and criticism. 615 4$aArchives de la Planete. 615 4$aArchives de la Plane?te. 615 4$aKahn, Albert. 615 4$aKahn, Albert, 1860-1940. 676 $a791.43/3 700 $aAmad$b Paula, $01050040 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458595503321 996 $aCounter-Archive$92479509 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00916nam0 22002533i 450 001 VAN0273038 005 20240605011006.723 100 $a20240307d1998 |0itac50 ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a|||| ||||| 200 1 $aArte in Abruzzo$fEnzo Carli 210 $aMilano$cElecta$d1998 215 $a295 p.$cill.$d25 cm 410 1$1001VAN0049438$12001 $aBiblioteca Electa$1210 $aMilano$cElecta 620 $dMilano$3VANL000284 700 1$aCarli$bEnzo$3VANV023660$036210 712 02$aElecta$ceditore$3VANV113606 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20240607$gRICA 899 $aBIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI LETTERE E BENI CULTURALI$1IT-CE0103$2VAN07 912 $aVAN0273038 950 $aBIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI LETTERE E BENI CULTURALI$d07CONS BB Abruzzo 356 $e07Om 7909 20240307 996 $aArte in Abruzzo$9563511 997 $aUNICAMPANIA
