The Artists Of The Seventeenthcentury Baroque Period Used Spectacle To Delight And Astonish; Contemporary Entertainment Media, According To Angela Ndalianis, Are Imbued With A Neobaroque Aesthetic That Is Similarly Spectacular. In Neobaroque Aesthetics And Contemporary Entertainment, She Situates Todays Film, Computer Games, Comic Books, And Themepark Attractions Within An Aesthetichistorical Context And Uses The Baroque As A Framework To Enrich Our Understanding Of Contemporary Entertainment Media.The Neobaroque Aesthetics That Ndalianis Analyzes Are Not, She Argues, A Case Of Art History Repeating Or Imitating Itself; These Forms Have Emerged As A Result Of Recent Technological And Economic Transformations. The Neobaroque Forms Combine Sight And Sound And Text In Ways That Parallel Such Seventeenthcentury Baroque Forms As Magic Lanterns, Automata, Painting, Sculpture, And Theater But Use New Technology To Express The Concerns Of The Late Twentieth And Early Twentyfirst Century. Moving Smoothly From Century To Century, Comparing Ceiling Paintings To The Computer Game Doom, A Spiderman Theme Park Adventure To The Baroque Version Of Multimedia Known As The Bel Composto, And A Medici Wedding To T Erminator 2:3D, The Book Demonstrates The Logic Of Media Histories. Ndalianis Focuses On The Complex Interrelationships Among Entertainment Media And Presents A Rigorous Crossgenre, Crosshistorical Analysis Of Media Aesthetics.
