Its focus on endings, near-endings and 'late style' is connected with the author's argument that comparative criticism itself may constitute an endgame of criticism, arising at the moment at which societies or individuals relinquish primary adherence to one tradition or medium. The comparisons embrace different works and artistic media and primarily concern works of literature and film, though they also consider issues raised by the interrelationship of language and moving and still images, as well as inter- and intra-textuality. The works probed most fully are ones by Theo Angelopoulos, Ingmar Bergman, Harun Farocki, Theodor Fontane, Henry James, Krzysztof Kie?lowski, Chang-dong Lee, Roman Pola?ski, Thomas Pynchon, and Paul Schrader, while the key recurrent motifs are those of dusk, the horizon, the labyrinth, and the ruin. 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aComparative literature 606 $aFilm Theory 606 $aComparative Literature 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 0$aComparative literature. 615 14$aFilm Theory. 615 24$aComparative Literature. 676 $a791.4309 676 $a791.43 700 $aCoates$b Paul$f1953-$0465320 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484292503321 996 $aComparative Cinema$91995436 997 $aUNINA
