Description
The Anthem Handbook of Screen Theory by Hunter Vaughan and Tom Conley offers a comprehensive survey of screen theory, applying its principles to various moving-image texts and sociocultural contexts. This handbook features original essays from established authors and emerging scholars, providing a strong foundation for film theory while situating it within the broader context of art theories and critical thought. By focusing on the 'handbook' approach, this book provides a unique blend of historical survey, practical application, and forward-thinking vision. It avoids republishing seminal texts and instead offers progressive chapters on major topics, providing a clear illustration of how screen theory can be applied to media texts and industries. This inclusive and accessible volume is ideal for those looking to innovate and explore the future horizon of screen theory.
