Description

Explore the unexpected connection between literature and the birth of cinema in Proust at the Movies. Published by Routledge as part of the Studies in European Cultural Transition series, this book examines the period when film became an artistic form of expression just as Marcel Proust began his masterpiece, A la recherche du temps perdu. While Proust expressed skepticism toward the mimetic representation of early film, this study reveals the deep connections between his radical reworking of writing styles and the cinematic art of time. As the first study in English to analyze these links, it offers a fresh perspective on how both mediums transformed our understanding of narrative and temporal experience. This text is an essential resource for those interested in film history, literary criticism, and the evolution of European culture. It provides a scholarly look at the missed encounter between a literary giant and a new visual medium, making it a valuable addition to any academic library or collection focused on film studies and modern literature.

Key Features

Part of the Studies in European Cultural Transition series from the respected publisher Routledge.

Examines the historical period when film established itself as a formal artistic method of expression.
