An Introduction

This book is a lively and provoking introduction to film theory. It
is suitable for students from any discipline but is particularly
aimed at students studying film and literature as it examines
issues common to both subjects such as realism, illusionism,
narration, point of view, style, semiotics, psychoanalysis and
multiculturalism. It also includes coverage of theorists common to
both, Barthes, Lacan and Bakhtin among others.

Robert Stam, renowned for his clarity of writing, will also
include studies of cinema specialists providing readers with a
depth of reference not generally available outside the field of
film studies itself. Other material covered includes film
adaptations of works of literature and analogies between literary
and film criticism.
