[KineJapan] Book Launch Event:

Sat Feb 13 23:51:40 EST 2021

 Hi everyone

Thank you Markus for introducing our book and the UR book launch event!
(and thanks also to all the RHJC authors in KineJapan)

I think the link you included was to a general events page, so let me
replace it with the URL specific to this event:
https://events.rochester.edu/event/book_launch_routledge_handbook_of_japanese_cinema#.YCikQHmRW02

Also, yes, the pricing is a big concern... There is a more affordable e-book
<https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/routledge-handbook-of-japanese-cinema>
option
<https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/routledge-handbook-of-japanese-cinema>,
though this doesn't change the general pricing issue in certain book
series.

Best wishes

Shota

> Celebrate the publication of the book, co-edited and featuring

> backgrounds, including three University of Rochester alumni, to illuminate
> the hybridity of approaches that define the field. Divided into four parts,

> broad conceptual frameworks such as gender, media theory, archive studies,
> and neoliberalism.
>
> Providing a timely and expansive overview of Japanese cinema today, it is
> the first anthology of Japanese cinema scholarship to span the temporal
> framework of 200 years, from the vibrant magic lantern culture of the
> nineteenth century to the formation of the film industry in the twentieth
> century, culminating in cinema’s migration to gaming, surveillance video,
> and other new media platforms of the twenty-first century.

> Featured presentations in this event will include short presentations by

>    - Joanne Bernardi, Professor, Department of Modern Languages and
>    Cultures
>    - Shota Ogawa, Assistant Professor, Graduate School of Letters, Nagoya
>    University (’14 VCS)
