OverviewEisenstein's reputation has long been secure as creator of the Soviet cinema's earliest and most enduring classics, and as a pioneer theorist and teacher. Yet a new wave of Eisenstein scholarship, enriched by new publications emerging from the former Soviet Union, has revealed far more eclectic and erotic figure than tradition would suggest. Eisenstein Rediscovered is the first book to make full use of post-glasnost freedom from taboos and pieties to consider Eisenstein in the round', giving due weight to his work outside film directing. Scholars from ten countries offer important new perspectives for reinterpreting Russian culture of the Soviet period, presenting an unparalleled diversity of views and methodologies with two newly discovered texts by Eisenstein here translated for the first time. The new' Eisenstein that emerges is in all respects a more engaging and contemporary figure than is traditionally perceived, his wit, versatility and eclectic passions defining a distinctively modern sensibility whose discovery is long overdue.
