Abstract

A thorough exploration of the work of one of Japan’s most controversial directorsThe only Japanese director to have won the Palme d’Or from Cannes more than once, and second only to Ozu Yasujiro in the number of times he has won the prestigious Kinema Jumpo Best One award, the late Imamura Shohei was one of Japan’s leading and most controversial film directors. This book is one of the first to study all of Imamura’s major films alongside his television and theatrical documentaries, focusing on his major themes and concerns. By giving shape to Imamura’s career, the book positions him as a stylistic innovator as well as an ethnographic investigator into Japanese culture and tradition; the preeminent examiner of the hidden, barely repressed underpinnings of Japanese society.Key featuresThe first book to look at the entire career of Imamura ShoheiIncorporates the work of top Japanese Cinema scholars from the US, UK, Australia, Canada and JapanOrganised by thematic concerns that cut across Imamura’s careerAbout the Contributors:John Berra, Renmin University of ChinaAdam Bingham, SOAS, University of LondonBianca Briciu, Carleton University and St. Paul University, OttawaJennifer Coates, University of East Anglia Lindsay Coleman, independent scholarDavid Deamer, Manchester Metropolitan UniversityRayna Denison, University of East Anglia David Desser, University of Illinois Timothy Iles, University of Victoria, CanadaMats Karlsson, University of SydneyHiroshi Kitamura, College of William and Mary Lauri Kitsnik, Kyoto UniversityDiane Wei Lewis, Washington University in St. LouisDolores P.
