Dance of Values is a groundbreaking initiative that seeks to bring to life the phantom of Eisenstein's  Capital , presenting for the first time material from the vast scope of the film's archival body. This remarkable \"visual instruction in the dialectical method,\" as Eisenstein himself described it, encompasses over five hundred pages of notes, drawings, press clippings, diagrams, negatives, theoretical reflections, and extensive quotations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDance of Values delves into the underlying formal necessity that drove Eisenstein's artistic choices, and argues that its brilliant adaptation of Marx's  Capital  was contingent upon the fragmentary and nonlinear state of its material. Published here for the first time, sequences from Eisenstein's archival materials are presented not as mere illustrations but as compelling arguments in their own right, constituting a visual theorization of value.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume offers a unique perspective on Eisenstein's cinematic vision, shedding light on the creative process that shaped his adaptation of Marx's  Capital  and providing a deeper understanding of the philosophical and theoretical underpinnings of his work. It is a testament to the enduring legacy of Eisenstein and his profound contribution to the world of cinema.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 554g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 227 x 140 x 26 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783035801088\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elena Vogman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44095390089466,"sku":"9783035801088","price":32.37,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/021cf9d1086c4d3269a9c813f79f2909.jpg?v=1625196074","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/dance-of-values-sergei-eisensteins-capital-project","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
