| contents | The Spectrum of Cinema. O'Grady, Gerald Communication (Thought Transfer) Cultural Influences Film Libraries Films Higher Education Library Materials Mass Media Research Tools United States History Visual Literacy Cinema emerged about 1900, and as the twentieth century ticked by, the cinematic process was recognized as a model for the thought processes of the human mind--of both the unconscious dream process and of the stream of conscious thought--and also as a model of the historical process. Film not only is an experiential process and a physical substance generating a complex physical system in the midst of a commercial culture, but it also gathers to itself on-going developments in impressionism and cubism, melodrama and mechanics, opera and the pulp novel, and other artifacts of the popular culture. Film is also a means of communicating and a tool to use in understanding man. It is, therefore, the responsibility of librarians to recognize film as a new addition to the media repertoire of mankind and to become leaders in mankind's movement from literacy to mediacy. (RB) |
