The Forties -- the War Years and Post - war Years for the United States, and against this background of momentous events and of struggle for survival, life went on and the detective-crime-mystery story continued to be written - in its own fashion. At the start of the decade in 1941, Philip Van Doren Stern published an article cleverly titled "The Case of the Corpse in the Blind Alley." In it Mr. Stern wrote: "The great need of the mystery story today is not novelty of apparatus but novelty of approach. The whole genre needs overhauling, a return to first principles, a realization that murder has to do with human emotion and deserves serious treatment. Mystery story writers need to know more about life and less about death -- more about the way people think and feel and act, and less about how they die." Mystery story writers listened, and if they didn't actually read Mr. Stern's warning, the strong hint of danger and its consequences was in the air for them to think about and feel and react to. So they turned away from some of the characteristics of The Golden Age -- rather, they modified and changed them, and adopted a new approach, taking Mr. Stern's words to heart. And in the 19 stories in this volume you will see clear evidence of these modifications and changes -- the beginning of a new Golden Age, or perhaps, more accurately, of a Renaissance. Happy reading!" - from the Introduction by Ellery Queen.

Rústica. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Nuevo. 01. Ellery Queen ?escritor y detective aficionado? regresa de unas vacaciones en Canadá en compañía de su padre, el inspector Richard Queen. Atraviesan en su viejo coche la zona montañosa de Arrowmountain, cuando un incendio les cierra el paso y se ven obligados a ascender por el único camino disponible, que se dibuja empinado hacia la cima de la montaña, y a refugiarse en una sombría y solitaria mansión. Pronto se dan cuenta de que las personas que habitan la casa ocultan algo. Y la presencia de los dos viajeros viene a poner en riesgo el inestable equilibrio que existe entre ellos. El misterio de los hermanos siameses (1933) es una obra maestra del policial clásico repleta de emoción e ingenio. La intensidad dramática de su desenlace nunca ha sido igualada. El inframundo terrible solo podrá ser abandonado cuando el pecado se redima, cuando la bestia pague por sus crímenes. Una lección magistral del uso del suspense y de la creación de atmósferas. LIBRO.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - In this book, editors Mario Slugan and Daniël Biltereyst present a theoretical reconceptualization of early cinema. To do so, they highlight the latest methods and tools for analysis, and cast new light on the experience of early cinema through the application of these concepts and methods.The international host of contributors evaluate examples of early cinema across the globe, including The May Irwin Kiss (1896), Un homme de têtes (1900), The Terrible Turkish Executioner (1904) and Tom Tom the Piper's Son (1905). In doing so, they address the periodization of the era, emphasizing the recent boon in the availability of primary materials, the rise of digital technologies, the developments in new cinema history, and the persistence of some conceptualizations as key incentives for rethinking early cinema in theoretical and methodological terms.They go on to highlight cutting-edge approaches to the study of early cinema, including the use of the Mediathread Platform, the formation of new datasets with the help of digital technologies, and exploring the early era in non-western cultures. Finally, the contributors revisit early cinema audiences and exhibition contexts by investigating some of the earliest screenings in Denmark and the US, exploring the details of black cinema going in Harlem, and examining exhibition practices in Germany.
