Lo común es que hoy nadie menor de treinta años pueda evocar la primera imagen de televisión que recuerda por el simple hecho de que se es espectador de televisión desde los primeros meses de edad. Antes de que cuaje la caliza de la memoria, la impronta de la televisión queda marcada en esa materia que conforma luego el manantial de toda imaginaciόn. La propia inteligencia no se entiende a si misma sin ese material que es parte del sistema de aproximación al mundo. Del mismo modo que la arqueología va sacando a flote siglos y milenios del paso de los humanos por la tierra, el recuerdo quiere sacar de ese tiempo de su primera edad que no puede medirse las explicaciones del mecanismo con que percibimos el mundo, pero hay cosas que no fueron aprendizaje porque no había conciencia sino experiencia pura. Hay que sacarlo entonces de la imaginaciόn.Como me ocurre con el cine; porque debo haber sido llevado con frecuencia antes de lo que puedo recordar. Por más que trato de concentrarme pa.

Is theater really dead? Does the theater, as its champions insist, really provide a more intimate experience than film? If so, how have changes in cinematic techniques and technologies altered the relationship between stage and film? What are the inherent limitations of representing three-dimensional spaces in a two-dimensional one, and vice versa? American Drama in the Age of Film examines the strengths and weaknesses of both the dramatic and cinematic arts to confront the standard arguments in the film-versus-theater debate. Using widely known adaptation

A lucid and straightforward analysis that argues that film and literature are not the entirely different, antithetical disciplines they have been and are widely held to be. Mr. Richardson shows clearly the relationship of film to literature, outlining differences as well as similarities, and common goals as well as divergent aims appropriate to the two arts. He demonstrates how each form and its associated criticism is frequently able to illuminate and enliven the other. A film consciousness sharpens the reader's alertness to the visual and aural qualities that mark much great writing, and literary training, in turn, adds depth and perspective to appreciation of film. The author goes on to present some of the literary influences that have affected film during its development, and discusses the impact of film on modern literature. He concludes with an extended exploration of the relationship of film to poetry, suggesting that while the two forms use similar techniques, film has dealt more significantly with the problem of how to find a humane, noncoercive order in life.
