Editor Callahan (Conceptual Studies, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee) has assembled a group of international feminist scholars to examine the intersections of feminism, history, and feminist theory in film. Using a range of methodological approaches, contributors investigate the different models available in feminist film history and how those feminist strategies might be of use at other sites of feminist intervention. Chapters range chronologically from early cinema to post-feminist texts, and are organized around the key areas of reception, stars, and authorship. This volume will interest scholars of film history and feminist studies. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
