The International Conference “Rethinking Cinema and Film History Through Global and Digital Approaches (early 20th century-1970s)” aims at contributing to analyse and push further the following issues: 1) global perspectives in film studies and, more specifically, in relation to how global and digital approaches can help rethink film history and grapple with hegemonic discourses; 2) and case studies that may reflect on these issues through the analysis of less-studied geographical scales and less well-known cinematic projects and spaces of sociability, such as film clubs and film criticism.
This conference is framed within the research activities of the European StG project “Social Networks of the Past. Mapping Hispanic and Lusophone Literary Modernity (1898-1959)” and the Global Literary Studies Research Lab, with the valuable contribution of Prof. Malte Hagener from the Philipps-Universität Marburg. It will take place face to face, if the pandemics allow it, on the 5th-7th October 2022 in Barcelona, Spain.
Dates: 5-7 October 2022
Place: IN3-UOC, Seu Poblenou, Barcelona, Spain.
