Pemberi pidato: Cheng Xin (SISU)
Tanggal: 1, Desember, 2015 – Selasa
Waktu: 18:00-20:00
Tempat: Ruang Kuliah 5124, Kampus Songjiang
Summary: The lecture will provide a general view of Chinese film and bring about a discussion of the awakening self-consciousness of human beings in contemporary Chinese films, Farewell My Concubine(霸王别姬,1993) and Still Life(三峡好人,2006). In this introductory lecture, we will examine and assess the aesthetic form and the socio-political content of the two films. Using each film as a starting point, the speaker tries to engage several larger topics, including history, sexuality and modernity, in modern China.
Only clips will be screened in class. Watching the films on your own time before attending the lecture is highly recommended.
