Description

In the first comprehensive, theoretically informed work in English on Quebec cinema, Marshall views his subject as neither the assertion of some unproblematic national wholeness nor a random collection of disparate voices that drown out or invalidate the question of nation. Instead, he shows that while the allegory of nation marks Quebec film production it also leads to a tension between textual and contextual forces, between homogeneity and heterogeneity, and between major and minor modes of being and identity. Drawing on a broad framework of theory and particularly indebted to the work of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, Quebec National Cinema makes a valuable contribution to debates in film studies on national cinemas and to the burgeoning interest in French studies in the culture and politics of la francophonie.

A probing look at Quebec cinema and its relation to Quebec nationalism

Reviews
"Marshall has a very good grasp of Quebec cinema and has thoroughly researched the subject using excellent and up-to-date sources. He brings original and at times critical insights to Quebec cinema, both in his personal observations and his theoretical approach, that open it to new interpretations. This is a serious and impressive work." Pierre Veronneau, author of Histoire du cinema au Quebec "Bill Marshall has a solid understanding of the complexity of Quebec cinema's relationship to the national question. This is certainly the most ambitious, most intricate, and most informative book in English on Quebec national cinema." Andre Loiselle, School for Studies in Art and Culture, Carleton University

Absolutely Fantastic

This was my first time ordering from SciFier but it definitely won't be my last. When it comes to buying books online the packaging needs to be good, SciFier were great they used bubble wrap to make sure they arrived perfect. Amazing range of books that majority are lower priced than most book retailers. Wonderful service, I'll definitely be recommending to everyone. Thank you.

Great delivery to EU, no issues with customs. Very good packaging. A nice selection of manga and, so far, the best prices I could find :)

Same old, same old. Amazing experience, great packaging, shipping was faster since it was a bit smaller and check out was smooth as butter. I have now put myself on a buy allowance because I cannot be trusted lol.
