A case history of the only American film under court-imposed restrictions for reasons other than obscenity or national security. Titicut Follies is an excoriating depiction of conditions in the Massachusetts Correctional Institution at Bridgewater, a prison-hospital for the criminally insane. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts took Wiseman to court, seeking to prevent the exhibition of Titicut Follies soon after its release in 1967. This account of the Titicut Follies case is based on ten years of research and relies on interviews, journalistic accounts, and especially on the legal record, including the Commonwealth v. Wiseman transcript, to describe the entire process of independent documentary filmmaking. The trials of Titicut Follies raise crucial questions about the relation of social documentary to its subjects and audiences.

Frederick Wiseman is among America’s foremost documentary filmmakers. The recipient of many awards, including three Emmys, Wiseman has made more than thirty feature-length documentaries during a career that has spanned five decades. Together, these films provide a fascinating chronicle of American social and institutional life. This book makes available for the first time transcriptions of five of Wiseman’s most important films— Titicut Follies, High School, Welfare, High School II, Public Housing—providing all of the dialogue as well as annotations about other aspects of the soundtracks such as music and ambient noise, and notes about editing and camera movement. These scene-by-scene transcripts enable readers to scrutinize the films’ complex structural patterns, recurring motifs, editing regimes, and the unscripted dialogue that makes Wiseman’s cinema a rich repository of American speech. Editor Barry Keith Grant’s critical introduction discusses the importance of sound in Wiseman’s documentaries. Liberally illustrated with images from the films, these meticulous transcriptions are accompanied by a bibliography and filmography.

The poetry/prose collection The Frederick Follies: Poetic Treasures Derived from a Junkyard is based on the 1972-1977 TV show “Sanford and Son,” set in the Watts section of Los Angeles. A huge fan of the old show, the author says, “I don’t usually laugh out loud, as my sense of humor is different from most. ‘Sanford and Son’ is one of the few exceptions. I know every episode almost word for word, yet Fred’s delivery still tickles to this day. He is my favorite comedic bigot.” She adds, “Writing this book gives me an opportunity to create scenarios that never happened. As an author, I can place characters together that were not in the same scene or introduce characters who were mentioned but never made it on air. Therefore, if you don’t recall certain things happening while reading this, it’s because these certain things happened only in the space between my ears.” The poem FREDERICK begins: My name is Frederick G Sanford; the G stands for “God only knows.” I change what the G represents on each Sanford and Son episode. I’m rude, crude, and insulting to everyone, especially Lamont, my only son. If there’s a day I don’t call Lamont “dummy,” he’d swear I was acting funny. Then there’s Esther, the sister-in-law, a hands-down winner on being ugly.

Bestselling author and Berkeley professor of thirty years Frederick Crews has always considered himself a skeptic. Forty years ago he thought he had found a tradition of thought — Freudian psychoanalytic theory — that had skepticism built into it. He gradually realized, however, that true skepticism is an attitude of continual questioning. The more closely Crews examined the logical structure and institutional history of psychoanalysis, the more clearly he realized that Freud's system of thought lacked empirical rigor. Indeed, he came to see Freudian theory as the very model of a modern pseudoscience. Follies of the Wise contains Crews's best writing of the past fifteen years, including such controversial and widely quoted pieces as "The Unknown Freud" and "The Revenge of the Repressed," essays whose effects still reverberate today. In addition, his topics range from "Intelligent Design" creationism to theosophy, from psychological testing to UFO zaniness, from American Buddhism to the current state of literary criticism. A single theme animates his bracing and witty discussions: the temptation to reach for deep wisdom without attending to the little voice that asks, "Could I, by any chance, be deceiving myself here?"

Rather than write briefly about each of the many documentary films Wiseman has made over the past 20 years, Benson (rhetoric and communication arts and sciences, Pennsylvania State U.) and Anderson (communication, U. of Massachusetts-Amherst) choose a few representative examples. They interpret the films, look at the rhetorical structures, and explore the people and processes. The first edition was published in 1989. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

A beautifully illustrated history of these quirky ornamental buildings in gardens across the globe. Are they frivolous or practical? Follies are buildings constructed primarily for decoration, but they suggest another purpose through their appearance. In this visually stunning book, Celia Fisher describes follies in their historical and architectural context, looks at their social and political significance, and highlights their relevance today. She explores follies built in protest, follies in Oriental and Gothic styles, animal-related follies, waterside follies and grottoes, and, finally, follies in glass and steel. Featuring many fine illustrations, from historical paintings to contemporary photographs and prints, and taking in follies from Great Britain to Ireland, throughout Europe, and beyond, The Story of Follies is an amusing and informative guide to fanciful, charming buildings.
