George Lucas spoke about the didactic role of cinema and about his own work being presented through the "moral megaphone" of the film industry. A considerable body of scholarship on the six-part Star Wars series argues (unconvincingly) that the franchise promoted neo-conservatism in American culture from the late 1970s onward. But there is much in Lucas' grand space opera to suggest something more ideologically complex is going on. This book challenges the view of the saga as an unambiguously violent text exemplifying reactionary politics, and discusses the films' identity politics with regard to race and gender.

Created by George Mann and Grant Griffin--the same team behind the stunning Star Wars: Myths & Fables--these six frightful fables have been carefully woven from the expansive fabric that is the Star Wars galaxy (including the thrilling landscape from Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland and Disney World), and beautifully painted in a lush illustrative style that feels intergalactic yet innately archetypal and timeless.

Neuware -Von dem Moment an, als Star Wars 1977 auf die Leinwand kam, war das Publikum zu gleichen Teilen fasziniert und entsetzt von dem Halb-Mann-Halb-Maschine-Hybrid Darth Vader. 1999 begann sein Schöpfer George Lucas, dessen Vorgeschichte zu erzählen: wie er als Anakin Skywalker aufwuchs, unter Obi-Wan Kenobi als Jedi ausgebildet wurde und sich in Padmé Amidala, die Königin von Naboo, verliebte, bevor er sich der dunklen Seite seines Wesens zuwandte und fortan mehr einer Maschine als einem Menschen glich. George Lucas erkannte früh die filmischen Möglichkeiten der aufkommenden digitalen Technologie, die ihn in die Lage versetzte, neue Kreaturen und neue Welten in einem größeren Maßstab als je zuvor auf die Leinwand zu bringen. Lucas drehte den ersten digitalen Blockbuster und stieß auf heftigen Widerstand, als er sich für die Verbreitung von digitalen Produktionsmethoden einsetzte. Digitale Kameras, Schauplätze, Charaktere und Projektionen sind heute in der gesamten Branche üblich. Lucas sorgte als einer der ersten für digitale Standards und popularisierte diese moderne Form des Filmemachens. Dieser zweite Band, wiederum in enger Kooperation mit George Lucas und Lucasfilm entstanden, behandelt die Entstehung der Prequel-Trilogie - Episode I: Die dunkle Bedrohung, Episode II: Angriff der Klonkrieger und Episode III: Die Rache der Sith. Enthalten sind auch dieses Mal ein Exklusivinterview mit George Lucas, viele seltene Dokumente, Drehbuchseiten, Produktionsunterlagen, Konzeptentwürfe, Storyboards sowie eine Fülle an Fotos aus den Filmen und von den Dreharbeiten. 512 pp. Spanisch

In 1977, Star Wars blazed across the screen to become one of the highest grossing and most beloved movies of all time. It was followed by two sequels and three prequels, all of which became blockbusters. Comic books, novels, graphic novels, and magazines devoted to the films have added to the mythology of George Lucas’s creation. Despite the impact of the franchise on popular culture, however, discussion of the films from a scholarly perspective has not kept pace with the films.In Myth, Media, and Culture in Star Wars: An Anthology, Douglas Brode and Leah Deyneka have assembled an intriguing collection of essays addressing the influences that shaped the films, as well as the impact the franchise has had on popular culture. Contributors to this volume discuss the Star Wars universe and what its connection to various cultural touchstones—from fairy tales and Joseph Campbell to Disneyland and Marvel comics—mean to viewers.Essays examine the films in the franchise as well as incarnations of the Star Wars universe in video games, comic books, and television programs, including the films’ influence on new generations of filmmakers. A companion volume to Sex, Politics, and Culture in Star Wars, Myth, Media, and Culture in Star Wars is a diverse collection of criticism that investigates the dynamic force that Star Wars has become in popular culture, from every imaginable angle.

Of the leaders of the American Army in World War II, Jacob Devers is undoubtedly the "forgotten four star." Plucked from relative obscurity in the Canal Zone, Devers was one of four generals selected by General of the Army George Marshall in 1941 to assist him in preparing the Army for war. He quickly became known in Army circles for his "can do" attitude and remarkable ability to cut through red tape. Among other duties, he was instrumental in transforming Ft. Bragg, then a small Army post, into a major training facility. As head of the armored force, Devers contributed to the development of a faster, more heavily armored tank, equipped with a higher velocity gun that could stand up to the more powerful German tanks, and helped to turn American armor into an effective fighting force. In spring 1943, Devers replaced Dwight Eisenhower as commander of the European Theater of Operations, then was given command of the 6th Army Group that invaded the south of France and fought its way through France and Germany to the Austrian border. In the European campaign to defeat Hitler, Eisenhower had three subordinate army group commanders―British Field Marshall Bernard Montgomery, Omar S. Bradley, and Jacob Devers. The first two are well-known―here the third receives the attention he properly deserves.

A long time ago (thirty years) in a galaxy far, far away (California) . . .  It is a period steeped in cinematic lore. Rebel filmmaker George Lucas, striking from a base in Northern California, won a tremendous box office victory against all odds with Star Wars, his sci-fi spectacular. During the ensuing craze, MAD’s “Usual Gang of Idiots” managed to steal a few laughs at the movie’s expense, soon discovering that Star Wars was the ultimate pop culture punching bag. Pursuing each Star Wars film’s release with more mockery, the MAD men spent the next three decades making a farce of the Force and spreading mirth across the galaxy. Now, in this special edition volume, you’ll chuckle as the Star Wars saga’s greatest moments are mocked by such MAD greats as Dick DeBartolo, Mort Drucker, Don Martin, and Sergio Aragonés; smirk as the striking similarities between the space battles created by Industrial Light & Magic and by the “Usual Gang of Idiots” are revealed; hum along to the unforgettable Star Wars musical, as penned by MAD’s master lyricist, Frank Jacobs; gasp at the startling insights into R2-D2’s love life; and marvel at the real reason why Lucas’ s lawyers never sued MAD. And that’s just the beginning. . . . So, pick up this book and see why, when Star Wars gets the MAD treatment . . . Sith happens! It is your destiny.
