| Description: | Professor Corey Creekmur presents "The Historical and Historiographical in Popular Hindi Cinema" as part of the South Asia Institute Spring 2012 Seminar Series. Creekmur is associate professor of English in the Department of Cinema and Comparative Literature, at the University of Iowa.
Corey Creekmur's teaching and research focus on international popular cinema (especially American and South Asian), cross-cultural film genres and the way in which such films interact with other media (such as music) as well as discourses of race, gender and sexuality. He also teaches courses, derived from the theoretical foundations of cultural studies and psychoanalysis, on the affective relation between film stars and fans. His work on American literature deals with popular genres as well, including detective fiction and the superhero comic book. |
