South Korean Film cover

An indispensable reference collection focusing on the most important contributions in the field of South Korean film.

This three-volume reference collection represents three distinct phases in the development of South Korean national cinema. It foregrounds how epochal characteristics inform the way in which the national cinema represents the penetrating thematic concern of auteur-ship, genre, spectatorship, gender, and nation, as well as the way in which these themes find expression in distinct visual styles and forms. The pack reveals the emphasis in current research on the central themes of gender and nation and on the stylistic and representational strategies that articulate those paired themes in South Korean national cinema. This is an essential addition to libraries and a major scholarly resource for researchers involved in the study of South Korean film.
