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.

Short description:
Projections of Memory argues that the long-form modernist art film of the twentieth century is more or less the direct conceptual descendant of the eighteenth-century Romantic traditions that originated in literature, painting, and architecture.
MoreLong description:
Projections of Memory is an exploration of a body of innovative cinematic works that utilize their extraordinary scope to construct monuments to the imagination that promise profound transformations of vision, selfhood, and experience. This form of cinema acts as a nexus through which currents from the other arts can interpenetrate. By examining the strategies of these projects in relation to one another and to the larger historical forces that shape them--tracing the shifts and permutations of their forms and aspirations--Projections of Memory remaps film history around some of its most ambitious achievements and helps to clarify the stakes of cinema as a twentieth-century art form.
Projections of Memory is a thoroughly impressive book--highly ambitious, well researched, and lucidly written. Suchenski travels a considerable distance in putting film history into conversation with the history of music, art, theater, and literature, specifically in relation to long-form works.
