Paperback. Condition: New. By exploring the use of film in mid-twentieth-century institutions, including libraries, museums, classrooms, and professional organizations, the essays in Useful Cinema show how moving images became an ordinary feature of American life. In venues such as factories and community halls, people encountered industrial, educational, training, advertising, and other types of "useful cinema." Screening these films transformed unlikely spaces, conveyed ideas, and produced subjects in the service of public and private aims. Such functional motion pictures helped to shape common sense about cinema's place in contemporary life. Whether measured in terms of the number of films shown, the size of audiences, or the economic activity generated, the "non-theatrical sector" was a substantial and enduring parallel to the more spectacular realm of commercial film. In Useful Cinema, scholars examine organizations such as UNESCO, the YMCA, the Amateur Cinema League, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. They also consider film exhibition sites in schools, businesses, and industries. As they expand understanding of this other American cinema, the contributors challenge preconceived notions about what cinema is. Contributors. Charles R. Acland, Joseph Clark, Zoë Druick, Ronald Walter Greene, Alison Griffiths, Stephen Groening, Jennifer Horne, Kirsten Ostherr, Eric Smoodin, Charles Tepperman, Gregory A. Waller, Haidee Wasson.

VG orig. blue cloth in lightly edgeworn dj. viii, [3], 334 p.; front. (port.); 24 cm. Contents: Dr. Isaac Barrow, A leter to William Lloyd Garrison, Rest and motion, Individuality, Hindrance, Mr. [Henry Thomas] Buckle as a thinker, The law of costs, A letter to Thomas Carlyle, Communication, Ice and Esquimaux, Modern speculative radicalism, Epic philosophy, Social ideals. Bibliography of the writings of David Atwood Wasson, by Robert C. Albrecht, p. 315-29; index of names, p. 331-34. -- `Some of his writings, admittedly, are reaffirmations of standard Transcendental teachings, but characteristically he is a critic of and a corrective to Emerson and Thoreau. In his insistence on open relations with opposites, in his recognition of evil, and in his assertion that individualism is a half truth, he advances, in fact, so far beyond Concord as to join hands with Irving Babbitt and T. S. Eliot. Why he should have faded from notice becomes immediately clear when we realize that the bulk of his work was published once and once only in the Atlantic Monthly, the Christian Examiner, and such little known and seldom consulted periodicals as the New Englander, the Radical, and the Index. (p. 3). Binding is Hardcover.…
