New Vocabularies in Film Semiotics

A lexicon of semiotic concepts, the book defines over 500 critical terms and describes how they have been used, building a semiotics dictionary. It explores linguistically-orientated terminology in cinema studies; the semiotics of film narrative; and the psycho-semiology of the cinema.
