Описание: A brilliant approach to the queerness of one of Taiwan’s greatest auteurs A critical figure in queer Sinophone cinema-and the first director ever commissioned to create a film for the permanent collection of the Louvre-Tsai Ming-liang is a major force in Taiwan cinema and global moving image art. Cruisy, Sleepy, Melancholy offers a fascinating, systematic method for analyzing the queerness of Tsai’s films.Nicholas de Villiers argues that Tsai expands and revises the notion of queerness by engaging with the sexuality of characters who are migrants, tourists, diasporic, or otherwise displaced. Through their lack of fixed identities, these characters offer a clear challenge to the binary division between heterosexuality and homosexuality, as well as the Orientalist binary division of Asia versus the West. Ultimately, de Villiers explores how Tsai’s films help us understand queerness in terms of spatial, temporal, and sexual disorientation.Conceiving of Tsai’s cinema as an intertextual network, Cruisy, Sleepy, Melancholy makes an important addition to scholarly work on Tsai in English. It draws on extensive interviews with the director, while also offering a complete reappraisal of Tsai’s body of work. Contributing to queer film theory and the aesthetics of displacement, Cruisy, Sleepy, Melancholy reveals striking connections between sexuality, space, and cinema.

Описание:
96 pages, 57 black & white illustrations, size 5.5 x 8.5 inches. Originally published under the title, The Book of the Villiers Engine, by C. Grange. This book is one of TheMotorcyclist's Library series published in the USA by Floyd Clymer by arrangement with the original publishers, Pitman Ltd. of London, England.
This re-print of the 1969 revised thirteenth edition was selected as being an important edition as it includes detailed information on the later Villiers engines including the 6F, 31C, 2L, 9E, 10E, 31, 32, 32A, 34A, 2T, 3T and the Siba Dynastart unit. Some of the more popular earlier units such as the 4F, 12D, 29C, 30C, 7E & 8E are also covered in detail.
However, individuals seeking additional information on the earlier Villiers engines such as the 2F, 4F, 30C, 29C, 29C/4, 8E, 8E/4, 8E/R, 7E, 7E/4, 1H & 28B are directed to our other Villiers publication ISBN 9781588501844 which also includes a chapter on the Villiers powered 3-wheel Bond, Gordon and A.C. Petite cars.
The first edition of the Motorcyclists Library 'Book of the Villiers Engine' was published in 1929 and subsequently revised and published through numerous editions. The two editions re-printed by VelocePress were chosen as being the most comprehensive as they cover both a broad model range and extensive time-line of Villiers engines.
This publication has been out-of-print and unavailable for many years and is becoming increasingly more difficult to find on the secondary market. We are pleased to be able to offer this reproduction as a service to all Villiers motorcycle enthusiasts worldwide.
