Beschreibung
This book enters the established field of film history with a formal analysis of the first six Godzilla films produced by Toho from 1954 to 1965. Through the tools of the poetics of fiction, it addresses the question of how this kaiju series could remain appealing to audiences. The main argument of the book lies in the dialectical relationship between narrative and stylistic continuity and discontinuity. Certain aspects remained unchanged, while others transformed or varied. The allure of the series thus arose not only from the battles of giant monsters but also from the cultural assimilation of popular genres, foreign influences, themes, and narrative patterns.
