New Directions in National Cinemas

Indiana University Press

The New Directions in National Cinemas series aims to publish manuscripts that take new and exciting approaches to the study of individual and comparative national cinemas, moving beyond their “national character” to explore their trans-national, international, regional and global dimensions. The series seeks to publish books that are interdisciplinary in nature but are strongly conversant in film theory and criticism.

Contemporary Film Directors

University of Illinois Press

Contemporary Film Directors presents short, theoretically and historically sophisticated commentaries on films by living directors from around the world. The series prioritizes inventive methods and scholarly approaches that may challenge conventional authorship. Each volume also includes an interview with the director, an annotated filmography, illustrations, and a bibliography.

Women and Film History International

University of Illinois Press

A new generation of motion picture historians has discovered that women have been much more influential as spectators, actors, and producers in world film history than previously thought. The series investigates the significance of gender in the cinema century by taking advantage of new print material and moving picture archival discoveries as well as the benefits of digital access and storage.

In Search of Media

University of Minnesota Press

This new international series copublished with Meson Press is edited by Götz Bachmann, Timon Beyes, Mercedes Bunz, and Wendy Hui Kyong Chun draws together a group of key thinkers of media to investigate the ways media technologies set the terms by which we live, socialize, communicate, and organize. In Search of Media is a series that brings together a group of established and innovative scholars from different continents in each volume to collaboratively explore a term from diverse perspectives. In original collaborations, they investigate the often obscure “terms of media” under which users operate and rigorously question the limits, conditions, and relations of media to uncover new ground for contemporary media studies.

Electronic Mediations

University of Minnesota Press

Electronically mediated communication has established lasting and significant changes in society and culture, politics and economics, thinking and being. From the development, adoption, and now international ubiquity of the Internet to virtual reality technologies, the mainstream popularity of video games, the genre of literary hypertexts, and a proliferation of digital art and other new media art forms, technology has infused everyday life and all aspects of our interaction, communication, and expression. The books in this series explore the humanistic and social implications of these new technologies.
