[Commlist] Volupte, Interdisciplinary Journal of Decadence Studies: special issue on decadence and cinema

Colleagues may be interested in this special issue of the Open Access 
online journal Volupté, focussed on decadence and cinema.

It offers the first extended exploration of cinema in the cultural 
context of decadence, both literary and social, from the silent era to 
the late twentieth century. Through analysis of films from six national 
cinemas (Italian, British, German, American, Polish, and Greek), the 
issue establishes the cinematic resonance of decadence as a cultural 
phenomenon of global dimensions. Among the films discussed: Mario 
Caserini’s /Ma l’amor mio non muore/ [/Love Everlasting/] (1913), Alla 
Nazimova’s /Salomé /(1922), Alfred Hitchcock’s /The Lodger: A Story of 
the London Fog / (1927), Paul Czinner’s /Fräulein Else/ (1929), Henryk 
Szaro’s /Mocny człowiek/ [/The Powerful Man/] (1929), Robert Freeman’s 
/The Touchables/ (1968), Michael Sarne’s/Myra Breckinridge/ (1970), and 
Nikos Nikolaidis’ /Singapore Sling/ (1990).
