Lund University Press,Sweden Ingmar Bergman: An Enduring Legacy
Book SynopsisThis unique collection focuses on the work of legendary Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman. Written in the wake of the centenary of Bergman’s birth in 2018, the volume aims to combine new approaches to Bergman’s films and writings with more traditional analyses. Established themes such as Bergman’s interest in philosophy and psychology are addressed, but also less familiar topics, notably his relationship with Hollywood and his elaborate use of film music and autobiographical writing that characterised his later work. There are new analyses of aspects of Bergman’s most famous films, including Smiles of a Summer Night and Fanny and Alexander, but also insightful readings of lesser-known works, such as Saraband and Sawdust and Tinsel.An electronic version of this book is available under a creative commons licence: manchesteropenhive.com/view/9789198557718/9789198557718.xmlTable of ContentsIngmar Bergman at 100: an introduction – Erik Hedling1 Ingmar Bergman on the international scene – Peter Cowie2 Bergman transnational: Munich–Rome–Los Angeles, or ‘the last temptation of Ingmar Bergman’ – Thomas Elsaesser3 Bergman and the business: notes on the director’s ‘worth in the market’ – Olof Hedling4 Bergman, writing, and photographs: the auteur as an ekphrastic ghost – Maaret Koskinen5 The playfulness of Ingmar Bergman: screenwriting from notebooks to screenplays – Anna Sofia Rossholm6 Cinema as a detour: Ingmar Bergman, writer – Jan Holmberg7 Laughing through tears: the soundscape of Ingmar Bergman’s Smiles of a Summer Night – Alexis Luko 8 Sound, act, presence: classical music in the films of Ingmar Bergman—a lecture recital – Anyssa Neumann9 Film-musical moments in Ingmar Bergman’s films – Ann-Kristin Wallengren10 Where does music come from?

Five Continents Editions Pier Pasolini Everything is Sacred: The Political
Book SynopsisThis volume is one of three companion catalogues to an exhibition taking place simultaneously at three venues in Rome on the large-scale projects of Pier Paolo Pasolini. They explore a theme dear to Pasolini — sacredness — with a multidisciplinary approach that will shed a light on his main characteristics as a poet, writer, director, and artist and on the cultural influence he wielded. This is the catalogue for the exhibition at Fondazione MAXXI, which explores the many facets of Pasolini’s political engagement. Texts, images, movies, notes, and documents will narrate the beginning of a protest that has endured to this day, with interpretations of Pasolini’s work is seen through the voices of contemporary artists. An essay by Anne Violaine Houcke analyses Pasolini’s final period, while Ara Merjan’s text explores his aesthetics. Marco Belpoliti explores the 1975 timeline, giving special attention to the political events most closely connected to Pasolini. Incudes contributions by Eleonora Cardinale, Roberto Chiesi, Silvia De Laude, Fabio Francione, Giuseppe Garrera, and Vincenzo Trione.
