"Like all great art, Ray's oeuvre has varied dimensions. The Retrospective should therefore provide both an overview of his aesthetics and an insight into his world-view. This book is aimed at providing a perspective to his films and art. It is mainly based on reviews and writings in the west. In an encounter with a filmmaker from a background so different, the interpretation of his work by some of the foremost American, British and French critics can help bridge the distance. Some reviews by Indian critics have also been included in order to provide a glimpse of the perception of Ray from within his own context. For the convenience of the foreign viewer, a short summary has been given before the reviews of each film.The reviews, or the extracts from them, have been selected to avoid repetition, as far as possible, and draw attention to different aspects of a work. A series of stills from the films, a filmography and bibiography have been added to facilitate reference work." --Foreword by Raghunath Raina.// Film, cinema and auteurs of South Asia, India.
