Language: English Table of ContentsReviewsAntoine de Baecque is one of our most meticulous and enterprising film historians, and in Camera Historica he finds a new way of looking at the two sides of his interest, film and history, making each a clarifying reflection of the other. As a particular bonus, he's especially good on important filmmakers who emerged during the 60s, such as the Nouvelle Vague and Peter Watkins. -- Jonathan Rosenbaum De Baecque is one of our most meticulous and enterprising film historians, and in Camera Historica, he finds a new way of looking at the two sides of his interest, film and history, making each a clarifying reflection of the other. As a particular bonus, he's especially good on important filmmakers who emerged during the 1960s, such as the Nouvelle Vague and Peter Watkins. -- Jonathan Rosenbaum, film critic Camera Historica marks a new stage in thinking about the relationship between cinema (as art) and history (as both real and narrative). Going beyond the classic 'histories of cinema,' this book reveals what cinema makes of history, its way of making history visible, and of allowing us to judge it. -- Alain Badiou Thanks to this book I now understand precisely why and how I am goth. -- Tim Burton Those in search of superb academic writing need look no further. De Baecque renders a beguiling mix of auteurism, rigorous methodology, and historical analysis in an evenhanded, engaging tone. -- Jonathan Robbins Film Comment 6/1/2012 Cinema and history are in lively dialogue here, which creates much more exciting reading...highly recommended.
