Eisenstein directed landmark films such as Battleship Potemkin and Ivan the Terrible and authored a vast body of theoretical texts. This is the first English-language edition of his recently rediscovered notes for a 'general history of cinema.' In these, Eisenstein presents a fascinating genealogy of the media and art forms that preceded the birth of cinema and accompanied its first decades. Cinema is presented as a medium in constant flux and as heir to an expansive tradition, ranging from Dionysian mysteries to death masks and mummies, from wax museums to dioramas and panoramas, pursuing a breathtaking trajectory 'from Dionysus to television.' Eisenstein's notes are accompanied by a series of previously unpublished critical essays by internationally recognized Eisenstein scholars. 410 0$aFilm theory in media history. 517 3 $aNotes for a general history of cinema 606 $aMotion pictures$xHistory 615 0$aMotion pictures$xHistory. 676 $a791.430233092 700 $aEisenstein$b Sergei$f1898-1948,$0151009 702 $aKlei?man$b N.
