In Allegories of Contamination Patrick Rumble provides an incisive critical and theoretical study of these films and the Marxist filmmaker's complex, original concept of the cinematic medium.With the three films that make up the Trilogy of Life - The Decameron, Canterbury Tales, and The Arabian Nights - Pasolini attempts to recapture the aura surrounding popular, predominantly oral forms of storytelling through a pro-modern vision of innocent, unalienated bodies and pleasures. In these works Pasolini appears to abandon the explicitly political engagement that marked his earlier works - films that led him to be identified with other radical filmmakers such as Bellocchio, Bertolucci, and Godard. However, Pasolini insisted that these were his 'most ideological films,' and his political engagement translates into a mannerist, anti-classical style or what he called a 'cinema of poetry.' Rumble offers a comparative study based on the concept of 'aesthetic contamination,' which is fundamental to the understanding of Pasolini's poetics. Aesthetic contamination concerns the mediation between different cultures and different historical moments. Through stylistic experimentation, the Trilogy of Life presents a genealogy of visual codes, an interrogation of the subjectivity of narrative cinema. In these films Pasolini celebrates life, and perhaps therein lies their simple heresy. 410 0$aToronto Italian studies. 606 $aPERFORMING ARTS / Film & Video / Direction & Production$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aPERFORMING ARTS / Film & Video / Direction & Production. 676 $a858.91409 700 $aRumble$b Patrick Allen$f1963-$0557749 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459920403321 996 $aAllegories of contamination$92116475 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01199cam a2200265 i 4500 001 991001910919707536 008 121205s2008 lu 000 0 ita 020 $a9782879780726 035 $ab14090521-39ule_inst 040 $aDip.to Studi Storici$bita 082 04$a332.1534 245 04$aThe bank of the European Union :$bthe EIB, 1958-2008 /$ceditors: Éric Bussière, Michel Dumoulin and Émilie Willaert ; in collaboration with Charles Barthel ...
