| Summary: | "This book introduces a novel conceptualization of "new-wave cinema" as a borderless phenomenon, akin to a "wave" that crashes upon established film aesthetics in a certain society. Using Niklas Luhmann's systems theory, the book explores the correlation between the rise of new-wave cinema and the societal conflicts contemporaneous with its inception. The analysis concentrates on three paradigmatic new-wave cinemas spanning three continents, namely New German Cinema, New Hollywood, and New Iranian Cinema, illustrating the universality of its thesis despite the aesthetic differences among the cinematic movements commonly labeled as "new wave" in film scholarship"-- Provided by publisher. |
