"“In covering cinema in numerous countries, Aesthetics of Early Sound Film takes a step toward in establishing early sound-film style as a distinct area of academic study, putting the study of the sound movies of the late 1920s/early 1930s on par with the study of the early cinema of 1895-1906.” -- Prof. Charles O’Brien, Professor of Film Studies at Carleton University. ""The book’s well-grounded claim that the era of the early sound film constitutes a distinct period in film history seems destined to change not only our view of the years in question but also of how we conceive of the history of the cinema in general."" -- Michael Wedel, Professor of Media History, Filmuniversität Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF"
