Griffith Project, Volume 1

No other silent film director has been so extensively studied as D. W. Griffith. However, only a small group of his more than 500 films has been the subject of a systematic analysis and the vast majority of his other works still awaits proper examination. For the first time in film studies, the complete creative output of Griffith - from ''Professional Jealousy'' (1907) to ''The Struggle'' (1931) - will be explored in this multi-volume collection of contributions from an international team of leading scholars in the field.
