The broad geographic coverage helps synthesise common features whilst revealing differences in the world's major alpine systems from the Arctic to the Tropics. The words ""barren"" and ""wasteland"" have often been applied to describe landscapes beyondthe treeline. However, a closer look reveals a large diversity of habitats, assemblages and individual taxa, lar 410 0$aBiology of habitats. 606 $aMountain ecology 606 $aUpland ecology 615 0$aMountain ecology. 615 0$aUpland ecology. 676 $a577.538 700 $aNagy$b L$g(Laszlo),$f1961-$01525708 701 $aGrabherr$b Georg$01525709 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778556003321 996 $aThe biology of alpine habitats$93767258 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04454nam 22005655 450 001 9910484797703321 005 20250609112117.0 010 $a9783030406974 010 $a3030406970 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-40697-4 035 $a(CKB)4100000011135671 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6182960 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-40697-4 035 $a(Perlego)3481269 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6182968 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011135671 100 $a20200423d2020 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aChinese Independent Animation $eRenegotiating Identity in Modern China /$fby Wenhai Zhou 205 $a1st ed. 2020. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2020. 215 $a1 online resource (xii, 222 pages) $cillustrations 225 1 $aPalgrave Animation,$x2523-8094 311 08$a9783030406967 311 08$a3030406962 327 $aIntroduction -- 'Postsocialism' and 'Independence' -- Chapter 1: A dispersed 'independent' ecology -- 1.1 The Meishu Legacy -- 1.2 An Emergent 'Animation Industry' -- 1.3 The Pioneer of Chinese Independent Animation - Shanke -- 1.4 Toward an 'Ecological' Conception of Independent Animation -- Chapter 2: Understanding the Ecology of Independent Chinese Animation within the context of China's Post-Socialist Reality -- 2.1 Minjian Individuality -- 2.2 From production pipeline to platform: the CIAFF -- 2.3 Conclusion: Assembling Ambiguous Contradictions -- Chapter 3: The Imaginative World of Pisan -- 3.1 Pisan - Redefining 'Independence' -- 3.2 An Icon of Resistance - Kuangkuang -- 3.3 Parallel 'Realities' in Miss Puff -- 3.4 'Parallel' Responses of Pisan Within the Chinese Media Ecology -- 3.5 Conclusion -- Chapter 4: Lei Lei: A 'third way': Lei Lei and the Festival circuit -- 4.1 The journey towards independence -- 4.2 Early 'rebellion' through animationFace (2007) -- 4.3 Post-socialist 'reality' and collective 'identity' -- 4.4 Lei Lei's Transcendent Response to the Media Ecology -- 4.5 Conclusion -- Chapter 5: The Future Prospect of the Chinese Independent Animation Ecology -- 5.1 The mainstream path: a national ideology of Chineseness -- 5.2 The evolving independent path: disoriented individual identity -- 5.3 An ideological mirror: Piercing I -- 5.4 Conclusion -- Chapter 6: Conclusion. . 330 $aThis study of 'independent' animation opens up a quietly subversive and vibrant dimension of contemporary Chinese culture which, hitherto, has not received as much attention as dissident art or political activism. Scholarly interest in Chinese animation has increased over the last decade, with attention paid to the conventional media circle of production, distribution and consumption. The 'independent' sector has been largely ignored however, until now. By focusing on distinctive independent artists like Pisan and Lei Lei, and situating their work within the present day media ecology, the author examines the relationship between the genre and the sociocultural transformation of contemporary China. Animation, the author argues, has a special significance, as the nature of the animation text is itself multilayered and given to multiple interpretations and avenues of engagement. Through an examination of the affordances of this 'independent' media entity, the author explores how this multifaceted cultural form reveals ambiguities that parallel contradictions in art and society. In so doing, independent animation provides a convenient 'mirror' for examining how recent social upheavals have been negotiated, and how certain practitioners have found effective ways for discussing the post-Socialist reality within the current political configuration. 410 0$aPalgrave Animation,$x2523-8094 606 $aAnimated films 606 $aMotion pictures$zAsia 606 $aAnimation 606 $aAsian Film and TV 615 0$aAnimated films. 615 0$aMotion pictures 615 14$aAnimation. 615 24$aAsian Film and TV. 676 $a338.4768824 676 $a791.4334 700 $aZhou$b Wenhai$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0888506 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484797703321 996 $aChinese Independent Animation$91985013 997 $aUNINA
