In the 1950s, a group of critics writing for Cahiers du Cinéma launched one of the most successful and influential trends in the history of film criticism: auteur theory. Though these days it is frequently usually viewed as limited and a bit old-fashioned, a closer inspection of the hundreds of little-read articles by these critics reveals that the movement rested upon a much more layered and intriguing aesthetics of cinema. This book is a first step toward a serious reassessment of the mostly unspoken theoretical and aesthetic premises underlying auteur theory, built around a reconstruction of Eric Rohmer's early but decisive leadership of the group, whereby he laid down the foundations for the eventual emergence of their full-fledged auteurism.

Suomalaiskeksijän hämmästyttävä elämäÄänielokuva, kännykkä ja televisio ovat arkipäivää, mutta kuinka moni tietää, että suomalainen Eric Tigerstedt kehitti niitä kaikkia jo yli sata vuotta sitten? Kaikki tuntevat Edisonin, ja Tesla on ikuistunut sähköautomerkiksi, mutta kukaan ei muista näiden maineikkaiden keksijöiden aikalaista, Eric Tigerstedtiä.Tigerstedtin kehittämä äänielokuvan tekniikka oli laajalti käytössä aina digitalisaatioon asti. Hän paransi myös äänentoisto- ja vahvistintekniikkaa sekä keksi salattuun viestintään käytetyn kryptografonin, jota Suomen armeija käytti myöhemmin sotatoimissa. Silti juuri kukaan ei muista edes hänen nimeään, saavutuksista puhumattakaan.Tigerstedt ei elinaikanaan hyötynyt keksinnöistään, pikemminkin päinvastoin. Hän eli alituisessa rahapulassa, näki ajoittain nälkää, kärsi horjuvasta terveydestä ja koki piinallisen huonoa onnea niin yksityis- kuin työelämässäänkin.Markus Hotakaisen kirja nostaa esiin tämän suuren suomalaisen ihmeellisen ja valitettavan lyhyeksi jääneen elämän. Teos osoittaa, että Eric Tigerstedt on ollut monella alalla lähempänä kansainvälistä läpimurtoa kuin uskommekaan.Markus Hotakainen on tiedetoimittaja ja tietokirjailija, joka on kirjoittanut useita kirjoja tieteen ja tutkimuksen historiasta.”Tulee vielä aika, jolloin ihmiset istuvat kodeissaan ja seuraavat maailman tapahtumia laitteella, jota nimitän sähköiseksi silmäksi.” - Eric Tigerstedt vuonna 1913

"Eric Williams: The Myth and the Man" seeks to illuminate the political career of one of the Caribbean's most elusive figures, Eric Williams, the first prime minister of Trinidad and Tobago. Selwyn Ryan uses a wide array of primary sources, letters, interviews, material from the Public Records Office in the United Kingdom, the State Department Records in the United State of America and the Eric Williams Memorial Collection in Trinidad and Tobago, and demonstrates a strong mastery of secondary sources to provide a sophisticated political analysis of Williams' role in Trinidadian and Caribbean politics. The manuscript focuses on Williams' entry into politics and his tenure as prime minister from 1956 until his death in 1981. Ryan also provides an interesting analysis of Williams' seminal work Capitalism and Slavery and his role as a scholar.The book is a distillation of research and writings that have spanned two decades. The author brings a unique perspective to the work as both a scholar and one who has studied, criticized and been active in Trinidad politics as chairman of the Public Utilities Commission, Trinidad and Tobago.
Eric Walrond (1898–1966), author of Tropic Death (1926), remains a seminal but elusive figure in Harlem Renaissance and Caribbean diasporic literature. Although this collection remains his only major text, Walrond was in fact quite prolific, penning several more fictions and journalistic writings. Born in British Guiana (Guyana), he endured a peripatetic existence, beleaguered at every turn by those colonial crises and conflicts that constitute the central concerns of his fiction and journalism. Despite the enduring popularity of Tropic Death, there has been little sustained critical examination of Walrond’s achievement. In Eric Walrond: The Critical Heritage, Louis J. Parascandola and Carl A. Wade address this deficiency, fashioning the first critical anthology on Walrond. The ten essays in this volume employ a variety of literary, cultural and sociological approaches to illuminate the art and imagination of a writer celebrated as one of the most complex authors of the Harlem Renaissance. Included in the collection are two early commentaries by noted West Indian critic Kenneth Ramchand (his article is revised for this volume) and the late American scholar Robert Bone, as well as contributions by more contemporary voices. This comprehensive dissection of Walrond’s life and writings reveals an oeuvre that still has much to contribute to discussions about modern black literary and cultural studies.

Dr. Eric Williams was Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago from 1961 until his death in 1981.

This monograph on Eric Doyle OFM (1938-1984) takes a comprehensive look at this much loved and gifted Friar of the English province. Often considered to have been ahead of his time, this work takes an in-depth look at his theology and spirituality, totally imbued by the Franciscan charism. His love of the humanity of St Francis, his dispelling of the 'romantic myth' surrounding the saint, his retrieval of the Franciscan charism post Vatican II, and particularly his location of that charism as ending with the death of Blessed John Duns Scotus in 1308, assure him of a significant place within the Franciscan Intellectual Tradition. Friar, evangeliser, broadcaster, scholar, ecumenist and mystic, Eric Doyle's thought has perennial, even urgent, relevance as this book highlights.

The clock is ticking on the art of Eric Butcher. In 2020, motivated by environmental anxiety, the artist made an extraordinary commitment; to use only those materials already available in his studio - using up, repurposing and recycling what he already has without consuming more. When he has run out of materials he will simply stop making art. Over the past six years Butcher has relentlessly pursued the logic of this enquiry, destroying his own work in the process and re-presenting the fragments of paint sandwiched between sheets of glass like specimens; a ‘natural history’ of his creative past. Sumptuously documented by photographer Peter Abrahams with a fascinating essay by Jonathan Watkins and a revelling ‘in conversation’ between Eric Butcher and artist/write David Batchelor, Trace Elements chronicles this unique and compelling on-going project.
