    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:


    Flashbacks in Film examines film flashback as a rich multimodal narrative device, analyzing the cognitive underpinnings of film flashbacks and the mechanisms that lead viewers to successfully comprehend them.


    Combining a cognitive film theory approach with the theoretical framework proposed by blending theory, which claims that human beings? general ability for conceptual integration underlies most of our daily activities, this book argues that flashbacks make sense to the viewer, as they are specifically designed for the viewer?s cognitive understanding. Through a mixture of analysis and dozens of case studies, this book demonstrates that successful film flashbacks appeal to the spectator?s natural perceptual and cognitive abilities, which spectators exercise daily.


    This book will serve as a valuable resource for scholars interested in film studies, media studies, and cognitive linguistics.



    "In conclusion, Gordejuela has put forward a book that is rich in content and that opens up new questions just as it answers its principal ones. As such, it is likely to spark productive discussions in many related research fields." - Federica Cavaletti
