Traditions in World Cinema General Editors: Linda Badley and R. Barton Palmer Founding Editor: Steven Jay Schneider This series introduces diverse and fascinating movements in world cinema. Each volume concentrates on a set of films from a different national, regional or, in some cases, cross-cultural cinema which constitute a particular tradition. CHINESE MARTIAL ARTS CINEMA The Wuxia Tradition Second edition STEPHEN TEO This updated edition is a comprehensive, fully researched account of the historical and contemporary development of the traditional martial arts genre in the Chinese cinema known as wuxia (literal translation: martial chivalry)  a genre which became familiar to audiences around the world through the phenomenal 'crossover' hit Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000). The book unveils rich layers of the wuxia tradition as it developed in the early Shanghai cinema in the late 1920s, and from the 1950s onwards, in the Hong Kong and Taiwan film industries. New for this edition - An additional chapter, which takes into account the recent developments in martial arts cinema including both king fu and wuxia - Explores how kung fu and wuxia are becoming more interlinked - Includes analysis of new features such as Wilson Yip's Ip Man series starring Donnie Yen, John Woo's massive epic Red Cliff (released in two parts in 2008 and 2009) and Wong Kar-wai's The Grandmaster (2013) Stephen Teo is associate professor at the Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, and a senior research associate of the RMIT University, Melbourne.
