In Derek Jarman's Angelic Conversations, Jim Ellis considers Jarman's wide-ranging oeuvre to present a broad perspective on the career and life of one of the most provocative, engaged, and important artists of the twentieth century. "Here finally is a comprehensive, full-length study of Derek Jarman's prolific and ever-relevant oeuvre. Jim Ellis bases his insightful analysis on a detailed textual dissection of the films themselves, and shows how they embody in an integrated, complex way Jarman's aesthetic innovation, his bold queer erotic vision and his historical roots in radical cultural politics-from Gay Liberation to anti-Thatcher punk protest to AIDS activism. Ellis's book is an angelic conversation in itself: his rigorous interdisciplinary scholarship and lucid, perceptive writing are inextricable from his passionate personal engagement with one of the most influential and charismatic European artists of the latter third of the twentieth century." -Thomas Waugh, author of The Romance of Transgression in Canada: Queering Sexualities, Nations, Cinemas For more information, including the table of contents, visit the book's webpage: http://www.upress.umn.edu/Books/E/ellis_derek.html Sign up to receive news on the latest releases from University of Minnesota Press: http://www.upress.umn.edu/mediaalert.html - Heather Skinner, Publicist University of Minnesota Press 111 3rd Ave S, Ste. 290 Minneapolis, MN 55401-2520 [email protected] v * 612-627-1932 f * 612-627-1980 http://www.upress.umn.edu _______________________________________________ news mailing list [email protected] http://lists.aesthetics-online.org/listinfo.cgi/news-aesthetics-online.org
