She was the first female filmmaker to create a feature-length film in Scotland (\u003cem\u003eBlue Black Permanent\u003c\/em\u003e, 1992). Although for most of her career Tait remained focused on the goal of making a feature-length film, her most notable and groundbreaking work was arguably as a producer of short films. The originality of her work, and its refusal to accept perceived barriers of genre, media and form, continues to inspire new generations of filmmakers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book aims to address the lack of sustained attention given to Tait’s large body of work, offering a contextualisation of Tait’s films within a general consideration of Scottish cinema and artists’ moving image. Furthermore, the book’s grounding in detailed archival research offers new insights into Scotland (and Britain) in the twentieth century, relating to a diverse range of subjects and key figures, such as John Grierson, Forsyth Hardy, Hugh MacDiarmid, Lindsay Anderson and Michael Powell.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCONTENTS: Portraits – Poetry – Sound – Place","brand":"Peter Lang AG, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51043643949399,"sku":"9783034318549","price":38.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783034318549.jpg?v=1750958994","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/between-categories-the-films-of-margaret-tait-portraits-poetry-sound-and-place-9783034318549","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
